Here’s a look at the Detroit Lions’ entire 2024 NFL Draft class, including six picks.
The Detroit Lions certainly had an unconventional 2024 NFL Draft. Lions general manager Brad Holmes traded up four times in the first six rounds—digging twice into 2025 draft picks for 2024 fourth-round picks. There were also a few surprising picks along the way. They opened the draft with back-to-back cornerback selections, and then early on Day 3, they grabbed an offensive lineman that many believed wasn’t going to get drafted.
However, they finished with arguably two of the biggest “steals” in the sixth round.
When all was said and done, there was certainly a coherent vision to the Lions’ plan. They continued to make massive improvements on the defensive side of the ball, while preparing for some future assets on the offensive side.
Here’s a look at the entire Detroit Lions 2024 draft class, including where each player was selected.
- Round 1, Pick 24 — CB Terrion Arnold
- Round 2, Pick 61 overall — CB Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
- Round 4, Pick 126 overall — OT Giavanni Manu
- Round 4, Pick 132 overall — RB/S Sione Vaki
- Round 6, Pick 189 overall — DT Mekhi Wingo
- Round 6, Pick 210 overall – G Christian Mahogany
While the Lions’ 2024 draft picks are done, the Lions front office most certainly is not. They’ll be active for the rest of draft weekend on the phones trying to sign undrafted free agents (you can check in on our UDFA tracker — coming soon). And don’t be surprised if Holmes and company still has a free agent signing or two up his sleeve.
