We looked at 50 NFL mock drafts on the Detroit Lions. Here's what we found

Unlike in past years, we are confident the Detroit Lions' first-round pick will be one of these few players in the 2020 NFL draft.

In fact, a clear favorite has emerged.

The Lions enter Thursday's first round with the No. 3 overall pick. They have nine picks in total.

We looked at 50 mock drafts from writers around the country again this year, including our own Dave Birkett, and here's what we found:

Final tally

Jeff Okudah: 40

Derrick Brown: 5

Isaiah Simmons: 4

Chase Young: 1

Trade back: 9
