As the 2026 NFL Draft swiftly approaches, Pro Football Focus released its latest mock draft, which has the Detroit Lions selecting a valuable asset with their No. 17 overall pick.

Per PFF's Nathan Jahnke, he projects Detroit drafting 6-foot-7, 352-pound Alabama offensive tackle Kadyn Proctor as an immediate replacement of now-released Taylor Decker at the left tackle position next season.

No. 17: OT Kadyn Proctor - Alabama Crimson Tide

With the Lions prioritizing offensive line help in the first round, landing Proctor at No. 17 would certainly be an excellent start for the franchise's draft haul throughout the weekend in the Steel City.
