Detroit Lions Mock Draft 1.0: Defensive upgrades across the board for Detroit

For a team currently situated with the No. 2 overall pick, the NFL Draft is an important moment for the Detroit Lions and their efforts to rebuild this football team.

And they certainly aren’t short on chances: the Lions have the fifth-most draft capital in the 2022 NFL Draft, and Brad Holmes will look to use those resources to this rebuild’s benefit after having one of the most successful draft classes in the league in 2021.

This year, I’m using Pro Football Network’s “Mock Draft Machine” to put together my drafts which is completely free to use, allows you to make trades, and maybe most importantly, is routinely updated with new player rankings to reflect how prospects are being valued.
