NFL Draft just a few months away, our Bryce Lazenby has put together a four-found mock draft for the Detroit Lions that addresses multiple needs on defense, including at edge rusher.

The Detroit Lions were projected to land an edge rusher who had 17 sacks in 2024 in the latest mock draft. At the outset of their 2025 offseason, one of the Detroit Lions' most obvious needs is an edge rusher.

Pro Football Focus has the Detroit Lions selecting Georgia pass rusher Mykel Williams with the 28th pick in the 2025 NFL draft.

Assuming the Detroit Lions actually bring back Za'Darius Smith, the team needs to bring in more depth along the edge and a long-term running mate for Aidan Hutchinson. CBS Sports' Chris Trapasso has the Lions doing just that in his latest mock draft.

Detroit spent their first two draft picks at the position, drafting Terrion Arnold and Ennis Rakestraw Jr. This year, their obvious need is an edge rusher who can line up alongside Aidan Hutchinson.
