| How Many Draft Picks Do The Detroit Lions Have This Year |
Counting Chickens Before They Hatch (or Lions Before They Roar?): The Magical Number is...
Seven! That's right, the Lions have a cool seven picks scattered throughout the draft. Now, some might say "seven isn't exactly a baker's dozen," but hey, every pick is a chance to unearth a hidden gem, a future Hall of Famer (fingers crossed!), or at least a decent backup punter. We won't be picky, meow (sorry, wrong jungle cat team).
QuickTip: The more attention, the more retention.
Here's the nitty-gritty rundown:
QuickTip: Revisit posts more than once.

- Round 1: 1 pick (because, well, they're hosting, gotta have some early drama)
- Round 2: 1 pick (standard issue for most teams)
- Round 3: 1 pick (same as round 2, gotta keep the party going)
- Round 4: 0 picks (uh oh, did the trade machine break? Nope, just a little deal they made)
- Round 5: 1 pick (back in business, baby!)
- Round 6: 2 picks (double trouble for opposing offenses... maybe)
- Round 7: 1 pick (gotta grab that potential sleeper late in the draft)
But Wait, There's More! Draft Pick Drama: The TJ Hockenson Trade
Remember that whole TJ Hockenson trade situation? Yeah, that little number shuffle cost the Lions their precious fourth-round pick. But hey, gotta give something to get something, right? In this case, they got a shiny new... well, we don't actually know yet, because the draft hasn't happened! But trust the process, Lions fans, trust the process.
QuickTip: Skip distractions — focus on the words.
