What pick do the Detroit Lions have in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft?
Currently, the Lions have the 16th pick in April, according to tankathon.com, after losing to the Minnesota Vikings on Christmas Day. There is still the rest of Week 17 and Week 18, plus potential changes via playoff finishes, to sort out the final order of draft picks.
