Walt's Mock Selection
From his 2023 NFL Mock Draft
Lions: Mekhi Blackmon-CB-USC

The Lions could address cornerback as early as No. 6 overall, so this pick makes sense if they wait on the position.

Walt's Mock Selection
From his 2023 NFL Mock Draft
Lions: Stetson Bennett-QB-Georgia

The Lions may want a quarterback to groom behind Jared Goff.

Stetson Bennett was very clutch in big games for Georgia. He'll look to become the next Brock Purdy or Colt McCoy.


Charlie's Mock Selection
