2026 DETROIT LIONS MOCK DRAFT WATCH: Second round

Josh Edwards, CBS Sports: Dani Dennis-Sutton, EDGE, Penn State
Why: There is a lot to like about Dennis-Sutton. He has the ideal size for an NFL rusher, good collegiate production and high-level, verified athletic testing. He is a quality piece to this pass-rush operation.
Daniel Flick, Sports Illustrated: Gabe Jacas, EDGE, Illinois
Why: Detroit added a veteran plug-and-play right tackle in Blake Miller on Day 1 and may follow a similar track with Jacas on Day 2. Jacas is a tough, physical pass rusher, with a strong track record of production against high-level competition.
Jacob Camenker, USA Today: Derrick Moore, EDGE, Michigan
Why: The Lions signed DJ Wonnum to play across from Hutchinson but could still stand to add depth on the edge. Moore posted a career-best 10 sacks in his final season at Michigan. He has a nice speed-to-power mix and should improve as a run defender thanks to his 6-4, 255-pound frame.
