Lions' Mock Pick Skips Right Past The Board

Detroit's stated needs are offensive line, specialists, secondary — yet the house mock sends Kewan Lacy at 23, a back the model has 17th while the room barely squeezes him into the top 32. Sitting right there instead is Kade Pieper, whose 18th-ranked model grade against a 55th room rank is a 37-spot gap, and Austin Siereveld isn't far behind at 29. Koi Perich, a safety fitting Detroit's secondary need, checks in at 22 on the model with a 25-point gap of his own. If the Lions actually draft their needs, Lacy isn't the pick.
