Lions draft scenarios: Choose your own Detroit draft adventure and outcomes

[ASFN Admin]

The range of possible Detroit Lions outcomes in the 2025 NFL Draft seems almost limitless. With GM Brad Holmes and crew not picking until No. 28 overall and then No. 60, 102 and 130 in the first four rounds, countless possibilities exist.

We're here to try and narrow that down a little bit. Instead of another rote mock draft, this time we're letting you pick the draft package for the first four rounds. There are 12 pods of potential draft scenarios, each with hypothetical draft hauls for Detroit's first four picks. The projections reflect players the Lions figure to be interested in selecting in the approximate draft range. There are even a couple of trade scenarios mixed in as well.

Or, if you want to be in the spirit of the "Choose Your Own Adventure" series of books, pluck a player from a different line of each scenario and create your own preferred pod.
