Where Bijan Robinson is selected in the 2023 NFL Draft will be one of Day 1's most intriguing storylines. Arguably one of the top-five players in the draft, no running back has been selected in the top 20 of the NFL Draft since Saquon Barkley in 2018.
Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes believes that's going to change this year. Holmes didn't rule out the Lions potentially selecting Robinson at No. 6 overall, one of two first-round picks in the draft for Detroit (Lions have the No. 18 pick as well).
"If you think the player is that good and he's out there producing for you, I don't think anyone is gonna look back and say -- I don't think anybody said in 2016 or '17 or '18, 'Oh man Todd Gurley was picked at (No. 10).'
"He was just a really good running back and he was one of the top prospects in the draft. We didn't really bat an eye about it."
