The Arizona Cardinals traded out of the third slot in the NFL draft on Thursday.
They then worked a deal with the Detroit Lions to move from 12, where they were after the deal with Houston, to get the sixth pick.
The Lions had wanted Devon Witherspoon, the Illinois DB, but when he went to Seattle at five, they were ready to move back.
The updated trade:
The Lions trade: Pick 6, pick 81.
The Cardinals trade: Pick 12, 34, 168.
