Detroit Draft Picks

EDGE
Position
- Draft Grade: B+
- Pre-Draft Rank: 1
- School: Michigan
- Height: 6' 6"

Eric Edholm's Commentary
The hometown kid is now a nearly instant Lions hero. No pressure? Well, Hutchinson looked completely in control during Michigan’s playoff drive and his own Heisman campaign and maintained and excellent level of play all season. He’s a good rusher and great run defender and becomes one of Dan Campbell’s key young guys.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
Well, the Lions are rolling the dice in Vegas. Trading up into this spot is a big, bold move for GM Brad Holmes, and we’ve been saying for some time that they were going to add a receiver. But this isn’t the way we — or anyone else — imagined. Williams would have been our WR1 had it not been for the torn ACL, and Detroit is in no hurry to get him on the field. What a pivot here. The draft just hit a higher gear.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
The Lions add another high-motor, high-character edge here to pair with Aidan Hutchinson. Paschal was a cancer survivor and three-time captain. He was an inspirational force for the Wildcats, racking up tackles for losses, blocking kicks and bringing consistency every snap, even if his physical tools are ordinary.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
A late bloomer (who spent time at wide receiver for the Illini), Joseph turned into a playmaker in his final season and carries intrigue. Although he didn't run a 40, his tape suggest he can run well and cover ground. His physical limitations as a hitter might keep him as a center fielder.
