TRADE: Lions acquire picks No. 24 and No. 70 overall from the Cleveland Browns in exchange for pick No. 17 overall. Holmes moves down seven spots and still nets a tone-setting interior offensive lineman . Ioane is a mauler in the run game, the type of physical presence Detroit covets.

With the 2026 NFL Combine finished, it’s time for my Detroit Lions Mock Draft 3.0. I loaded up on defensive playmakers while reinforcing the trenches on offense — targeting high-upside prospects who fit Brad Holmes’ draft philosophy and Detroit’s physical identity.

The NFL Draft is quickly approaching, so it is time for my Detroit Lions 7-Round Mock Draft 2.0. If you’d like, you can compare it to my first mock draft.

Following an eventful week at the NFL Scouting Combine, many still believe the Lions will look to build in the trenches with the 17th pick.

The week following the NFL combine has led to a surge in mock drafts from around the country, including via the Detroit Lions beat here at MLive.

The Lions trade down, add a pick and still land one of the most disruptive edge rushers in the draft in Akheem Mesidor.

The NFL Combine is done and over with, and now we get ready for the next step in the offseason, NFL free agency. But first, let's do a post Combine mock draft for the Detroit Lions based on what we learned in Indianapolis.

Free agency might shake things up next week, but this Lions mock draft — with multiple trades — fills some key spots on both sides.

The Lions have a pressing need for a center of the future, as Graham Glasgow was up and down last season after Frank Ragnow retired. Options currently on roster include Glasgow, Tate Ratledge moving over from guard and newly signed Seth McLaughlin, who is on a futures contract.

Fano's combine arm-length questions dropped his stock, but his top-10 talent and potential wide-ranging versatility along the O-line make him an ideal Lions target.
