Here's what they said on the case:

The Lions need a bonafied cornerback to go with Darius Slay, and could be eyeing A.J. Bouye out of Houston, who carries an $11M+ market value as of now. They'll be in the market for more help on the edge rush as well, and will likely look to the draft to fill that need.

Pairing Darius Slay with Bouye would be an interesting move for the team considering the abilities of both. The piece also implies that the Lions could choose to spend on a cornerback while improving their pass rush through the NFL Draft.

Regardless, Bouye is an elite option, and it's one the Lions could be considering if this is to be believed.
