The NFL has put out two official memos listing the official 2022 NFL Draft order for all seven rounds: one a month ago, and the other an updated version posted earlier this week. In both of those memos, the NFL listed the Detroit Lions with nine current selections in the upcoming draft.
Turns out both of those official memos were inaccurate. As first reported by The Athletic’s Denver Broncos writer Nick Kosmider and quickly corroborated by Lions reported Chris Burke, the Lions actually only have eight picks in the NFL Draft.
