The Detroit Lions were predicted to draft Ohio State's Jack Sawyer in the first round of the latest mock draft. Early on in the 2025 offseason, it seems pretty obvious where the Detroit Lions need to focus on improving their roster.

The Detroit Lions ' 2024 season is over, but the 2025 NFL draft buzz is just beginning. The Lions hold the 28th overall pick in the first round, after being the team with the best record of the four losers on divisional round weekend. They have six picks in the draft.

Pro Football Focus has the Detroit Lions selecting Georgia pass rusher Mykel Williams with the 28th pick in the 2025 NFL draft.
