Trade 1 of 2
Detroit Lions and New England Patriots
Detroit moved from No. 51 to No. 43 in the 2018 second round, sending New England picks No. 51 and No. 117 to select running back Kerryon Johnson. Kerryon Johnson flashed as a rookie and topped 1,000 scrimmage yards in 2018, but injuries limited his Detroit tenure and he was gone after three seasons. New England turned the two selections into additional draft capital rather than one long-term star, giving the Patriots broader value and the better risk-adjusted return.

Detroit Lions
- Pick 2018 2nd round pick (43rd overall, Kerryon Johnson)
New England Patriots
- Pick 2018 2nd round pick (51st overall subsequently traded, Anthony Miller)
- Pick 2018 4th round pick (117th overall subsequently traded, Jordan Whitehead)
