Jared Goff’s Lions may gamble big as $112 million cornerstone risks exit with draft replacement plans gaining momentum
Detroit’s draft outlook is beginning to take shape around one central question: how to handle the tackle position after Taylor Decker’s exit. Moving Penei Sewell to the left side remains a possibility, but it carries risk and adjustment concerns. As a result, the Lions are widely expected to target an offensive lineman at No. 17. Prospects like Kadyn Proctor and Monroe Freeling offer different blends of readiness and upside, leaving Detroit to balance immediate protection needs with long-term line stability.
