The Athletic just did a three round mock for every team. Here’s how the Lions played out:
No. 3 (via ARI): Will Anderson Jr., Edge, Alabama
No. 18: Bijan Robinson, RB, Texas
No. 55: Keeanu Benton, DT, Wisconsin
No. 81: Hendon Hooker, QB, Tennessee
Remaining picks: 152, 183, 194
The dream scenario for Detroit features finding a way up to No. 3, to pair Anderson with 2022 rookie standout Aidan Hutchinson. That said, given how well-stocked their roster has become, the Lions should have more options than just about any team in the league on Days 1 and 2.
