Here's where the Lions will be picking in the 2026 NFL Draft

With all the dust of the 2025 NFL season settled, the Detroit Lions now know where they'll be picking. And it took until the final game of the regular season to find out.

Thanks to a missed AFC North-clinching field goal attempt by Baltimore Ravens' kicker Tyler Loop, the Lions will have the #17 draft pick in this year's draft. With the loss, the Ravens (8-9) have a worse record than the Lions (9-8). Had the Ravens won, the Steelers would've also been 9-8, but their victory over the Lions a few weeks ago would've given the Lions the better draft slot.
