Before the Roar 2.0: Lions 7-Round Mock Draft WITH TRADES

About this episode

The episode features a strategic 7-round mock draft for the Detroit Lions, including trades and roster considerations.

Mock Draft 2.0 is here — and this time, we’re getting aggressive. On this episode of Before the Roar, we run a full Detroit Lions 7-round mock draft with trades, trying to think like GM Brad Holmes every step of the way. That means moving up, trading back, and targeting value while building out the roster. We break down every move, explain the logic behind each trade, and discuss how each pick fits the current Detroit Lions roster and long-term vision. From bold moves early to smart value late, this is our most strategic mock draft yet. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
