The 2025 NFL Draft is shaping up to be all about the trenches, and if there’s one thing we know, it’s that you can never go wrong by focusing on the offensive and defensive lines. These positions are where games are truly won and lost, and every team, including the Detroit Lions, knows the importance of getting it right. With that in mind, it’s safe to bet that the Lions will be looking at multiple prospects in the draft to beef up both the offensive and defensive lines.
In the latest episode of the Pride of Detroit PODcast, we wrapped up our positional preview series by diving into the big guys. We’ve already covered the skill positions, linebackers, and defensive backs, but now it’s time to get into the meat of the draft: the offensive and defensive lines.
When it comes to the offensive line, flexibility is key. The Lions are still figuring out what their ideal mix is, especially with guard being a major need. We talk through a bunch of different prospects who could be available in every round, so no matter where the Lions pick, they’ll have options.
After that, it’s time to turn our attention to the defensive line. The Lions are gonna need to prioritize their needs here, whether it’s for a defensive end or a tackle. We explore whether a guy like Shemar Stewart from Texas A&M could fall to Detroit’s spot and what we like about players like Nic Scourton and Landon Jackson.
Stick around because we’ve still got our full draft preview coming up. We hope it’ll give you plenty of time to digest before the big day. Thanks for joining us throughout this series, and as always, we appreciate your support of the PODcast.
