Lions update draft plans after free agency moves
The Detroit Lions took a cautious approach in the first wave of free agency, signing cornerback D.J. Reed and focusing on defensive depth. They added players like Grant Stuard and Roy Lopez, while also reinforcing their offense with Kyle Allen and Kenny Yeboah. As a result of these moves, NFL analysts have updated their mock drafts for the Lions, who hold the No. 28 pick. Projections now include various players, such as edge defender Nic Scourton from Texas A&M and defensive lineman Walter Nolen from Ole Miss. Other potential picks include Tyler Booker, a guard from Alabama, and edge rusher Landon Jackson from Arkansas. Kenneth Grant, a defensive tackle from Michigan, is also mentioned as a possible selection to strengthen the defensive line.
