Lions safety Dan Jackson will have a bigger role than expected in Detroit

2 weeks ago | lionswire.usatoday.com | Russell Brown

Let me be the first to say that I love the Detroit Lions selection of Tyleik Williams in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft. That said, Williams isn't even my favorite pick from the Detroit Lions draft. In fact, the player that I'm most excited about is safety Dan Jackson from Georgia. He may be a 7th-round pick, but Jackson fits the Lions on so many different levels. For starters, Jackson is just a good, all-around football player.

The first round of the 2025 NFL Draft is in the books and it was about as wild and unexpected as we imagined. We saw the Jaguars make an unexpected trade up for Travis Hunter and the Browns gained additional capital and drafted Mason Graham. Meanwhile, we saw the Giants build their identity on defense by selecting Abdul Carter and then they built for the future by trading back into the first round for quarterback Jaxson Dart.

Final Detroit Lions 7-Round NFL Mock Draft

The final 7-round Lions mock draft from our Russell Brown. Under Brad Holmes, it's been a guessing game on what the Detroit Lions will do in the first round of the NFL Draft. It's no different this year. We could see the Lions take a defensive lineman but judging by the comments made by Holmes and Campbell, they're not drafting for need. Maybe the defensive lineman that is highest on their board will fall into their lap with the 28th pick. Or maybe they surprise everyone and draft a wide receiver.
