5 Tight ends the Detroit Lions should consider in 2023 NFL Draft

On Tuesday afternoon, before the NFL trade deadline passing, the Detroit Lions traded tight end T.J. Hockenson (and 2023 and 2024 fourth-round picks) to the Minnesota Vikings for a 2023 second-round pick and a 2023 third-round pick. With Hockenson out of the picture, the Lions will roll with Brock Wright is their TE 1, but who will assume the TE 1 position in 2023? If GM Brad Holmes decides to go the free agent route, he may avoid tight ends altogether in the 2023 NFL Draft, but something tells me he will replace Hockenson on the cheap by selecting one at some point in the draft.
