Detroit Lions pick Missouri cornerback Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in second round of NFL draft
Breaking down Detroit Lions’ first-round draft pick: Terrion Arnold
Detroit Lions select cornerback Terrion Arnold from Alabama in Round 1 of NFL draft, April 25, 2024. Carlos and Shawn share their reactions, analysis.
The Detroit Lions picked Missouri cornerback Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in the second round of Friday’s 2024 NFL draft in Detroit.
The Lions entered Friday with just one scheduled pick, No. 61 overall, after trading their third-rounder (No. 73) to the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday for the right to move up and draft Alabama cornerback Terrion Arnold. They now have drafted two corners, along with adding two in March, trading for Carlton Davis and signing Amik Robertson. They waived last season’s starter, Cam Sutton, in mid-March after learning there was a warrant out for his arrest on one count of domestic battery by strangulation.
Rakestraw played in nine games with eight starts last season as a redshirt junior, totaling 35 tackles and four pass breakups. He missed four games with a groin injury. He started all 13 games in 2022, collecting 35 tackles, 4½ tackles for loss, an interception and two forced fumbles.
INSTANT GRADE: Lions’ double down at cornerback with Missouri’s Ennis Rakestraw Jr. a great move
He tore his ACL in the 2021 season after playing in four games.
With no third- or fourth-round pick, which the Lions sent to the Minnesota Vikings as part of the 2022 T.J. Hockenson deal, the Lions could be done for the night.

They have four picks Saturday on Day 3: No. 164 in the fifth round, Nos. 201 and 205 in Round 6, and No. 249 in the seventh round.
The Lions added Arnold, one of the two best cornerbacks in the draft and a potential starter for their secondary on Day 1, and on Friday got more help for their defense with Rakestraw.
ANALYSIS: Lions keep adding Alabama football flavor to organization. It’s not by accident.
Though they have one of the best rosters in the NFL, the Lions still have depth needs at wide receiver, offensive line, defensive line and safety.

BURLINGTON JUNCTION, Mo. (KCTV) – A head-on collision on Highway 71 killed 3 people and seriously injured a 4th, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
State Troopers say the crash happened around 1:25 p.m. on Saturday, May 9, near the intersection of Highway 71 and 170th St. – about a mile and a half north of Burlington Junction.
Investigators say a 2026 Chevrolet Equinox, driven by a 59-year-old woman from Carthage, Texas, was heading north on the highway when it crossed the centerline.
The Chevrolet struck a southbound 2026 Ford Explorer head-on, according to MSHP. Both vehicles caught fire and came to rest in the southbound lane.
State Troopers note that the crash killed the Texas driver, a 67-year-old woman from Harlan, Iowa and a 76-year-old woman from Rockwell City, Iowa.
The Ford’s driver – a 72-year-old man from Rockwell City – was airlifted to Bryan West Medical Center in Lincoln, Nebraska, with serious injuries, according to first responders.
Troopers say all four people involved were wearing seatbelts at the time of the crash.
The cause of the collision remains under investigation.
