Detroit Lions get WR, Michigan DEs get respect in latest ESPN draft projections

Everyone knows two is better than one.

Buying two shoes is better than buying one. A downtown area having two Coney spots, even if they're right next door, is better than having one.

And having two first-round NFL draft picks is definitely better than one.

The Detroit Lions will have two of top 32 selections in the 2022 draft, and, according to ESPN experts, two Michigan football edge rushers — and a Central Michigan Chippewa — will be among the first-rounders.

New ESPN draft analyst Jordan Reid, a former Football Championship Subdivision quarterback, released his first mock draft Wednesday and Todd McShay, one of ESPN's regular draft commentators, updated his top 32 prospects Tuesday.
