The Detroit Lions found a substitute for Jared Goff.
‘Elite’ Safety Duo for the Lions in the Most Recent ESPN Mock Draft
Field Yates and Mel Kiper tried projecting the top 100 choices.
In the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, defensive back Brian Branch was selected by the Detroit Lions. His influence on Detroit’s defense was evident right on, as the former Crimson Tide defender from Alabama recorded an interception on the road during the season’s opening game against the Chiefs.
Mel Kiper and Field Yates, two draft analysts for ESPN, tried to estimate the first 100 picks in their most recent 2024 NFL Draft projection.
For the Lions, having picks No. 29, No. 61 and No. 73 provides general manager Brad Holmes an opportunity to bolster a defensive unit that still needs more impact players.
With selections at No. 29, No. 61, and No. 73, general manager Brad Holmes of the Lions has the chance to strengthen a defense that still lacks impact players. The analysts took turns projecting the Detroit team, but Kiper ultimately made all of the selections. Darius Robinson, who pleased evaluators at the Senior Bowl, is the player the Lions are eyeing with their first choice, according to ESPN.
