Prior to the 2023 NFL draft, the Atlanta Falcons swung a trade with the Detroit Lions for cornerback Jeff Okudah. In order to acquire the former No. 3 overall selection, the Falcons sent the Lions a 2023 fifth-round pick.
Okudah, 24, will likely start for Atlanta this season, but his future beyond 2023 is still up in the air. While first-round picks generally have a fifth-year option, Okudah is no longer eligible for one.
