How many picks do the Lions have in the 2027 NFL draft?

The Lions hold 8 picks in the 2027 NFL draft: 1 in round 1, 1 in round 2, 1 in round 3, 1 in round 4, 1 in round 5, 1 in round 6 and 2 in round 7. 1 of them came from other teams in trades, and they have not traded any of their own away. Compensatory picks are added in March, after free agency.

No. 27 if the season ended today (their own pick). Our forecast for where it lands: 17 to 31, most likely 24.
