The Lions currently have the No. 28 overall pick in the first round and have seven picks total, including one each in Rounds 2-4, one in the sixth and two in the seventh.
The list is headlined by Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter, who played both defensive back and wide receiver while at Colorado. He is listed as a defensive back on the league’s release.
The Combine is an important week in the offseason schedule for all 32 teams, and usually the entire Lions contingent of coaches, front office personnel and medical staff are in Indianapolis for the event.
It’s the first time teams get real measurements on the underclassmen, and the medicals on all 329 players are critical in the evaluation process. Then comes the testing, highlighted every year by the 40-yard dash.
This draft class is strong at edge rusher, interior defensive line and interior offensive line, some of those potentially being areas of need for the Lions depending on how free agency goes.
