Glenn Beil-USA TODAY SportsNow that we’ve entered the final two weeks of draft season, it seems like there is a consensus grouping around the 2019 NFL Draft. Maybe it’s a symptom of groupthink, maybe there’s legitimate information out there, or maybe we’re all getting roped for a loop by information sent out there by smokescreening teams. But when it comes to the Detroit Lions, it’s starting to look like there’s an increasing thought amongst analysts that they’re between two to three players. I took results from 20 different mock drafts from the past week, and two names kept popping up: Florida State’s Brian Burns and tight end T.J. Hockenson. Montez Sweat is still hanging around as we get further away from his incredible NFL Combine performance and there are also a couple players lingering, as well. Take a look:The Ringer: EDGE Brian BurnsCBS Sports (Will Brinson): EDGE Rashan GaryCBS Sports (R.J. White): TE T.J. Hockenson (traded down to 14)CBS Sports (Chris Trapasso): CB Greedy WilliamsCBS Sports (Jared Dubin): LB Devin WhiteThe Draft Network (Trevor Sikkema): EDGE Brian BurnsBleacher Report (Zach Buckley): TE T.J.

HockensonDetroit News (Justin Rogers): EDGE Brian BurnsPosition breakdownEDGE: 9 of 20Tight end: 5 of 20Cornerback: 3 of 20Linebacker: 2 of 20Defensive tackle: 1 of 2015 of the 20 mocks had the Lions taking a defensive player, with the only other picks being for Iowa’s tight end T.J. Hockenson. Despite adding Trey Flowers in free agency, analysts are still mocking an edge player to Detroit at a high frequency. That doesn’t mean these experts aren’t paying attention, Detroit could still certainly use more depth and youth at the position. Unsurprisingly, cornerback remains high atop the Lions’ perceived needs list http://www.lionslockerroom.com/authentic-deshawn-shead-jersey , while no one appears convinced an offensive linemen is worthy of Detroit’s first pick. Player breakdownT.J. Hockenson: 5 of 20Brian Burns: 4 of 20Montez Sweat: 3 of 20Rashan Gary: 2 of 20Deandre Baker: 2 of 20Devin White: 2 of 20Greedy Williams: 1 of 20Ed Oliver: 1 of 20As previously mentioned, nearly half of the mocks scouted have either Hockenson or Burns as the pick. Perhaps most interesting is that the once-popular Greedy Williams is not only barely even mentioned in any of these mocks, but he isn’t even the top CB drafted to the Lions anymore. Deandre Baker popped up in two mocks, although one involved a trade-down scenario.The local pick of Rashan Gary remains somewhat common among mocks, while there are still a couple of Devin White picks, although not nearly as much as there were a few weeks ago. OAKLAND RAIDERS (6-10)OPEN CAMP: July 26, Napa, CaliforniaLAST YEAR: Raiders plummeted from 12 wins in 2016 to six last year as QB Derek Carr and offense regressed, defense struggled, and coach Jack Del Rio was fired. Oakland’s offensive output dropped by more than seven points per game, takeaways fell from 30 to 14, and Raiders got almost no production from past three draft classes in becoming one of league’s biggest disappointments. That led to move to bring coach Jon Gruden back for second stint with Raiders after spending past nine seasons in broadcast booth.IMPORTANT ADDITIONS: Gruden http://www.lionslockerroom.com/authentic-tavon-wilson-jersey , WR Jordy Nelson, WR Martavis Bryant, RB Doug Martin, LB Derrick Johnson, CB Rashaan Melvin, S Marcus Gilchrist, LB Emmanuel Lamur, LB Tahir Whitehead, WR Ryan Switzer, OL Kolton Miller, DT Maurice Hurst, DE Arden Key.IMPORTANT LOSSES: Del Rio Jalen Reeves-Maybin Jersey White , WR Michael Crabtree, RT Marshall Newhouse, LB NaVorro Bowman, CB TJ Carrie, CB Sean Smith, CB David Amerson, P Marquette King.CAMP NEEDS: Biggest priority is getting 2016 Defensive Player of Year Khalil Mack into camp after he held out entire offseason while seeking long-term contract. Mack is entering final year of rookie deal and Gruden and new DC Paul Guenther are eager to get most important defensive piece on practice field. Other main issues are learning Gruden’s system and figuring out offensive tackle situation with LT Donald Penn coming back fromfoot injury and rookies Miller and Brandon Parker battling Breno Giacomini for time.EXPECTATIONS: Owner Mark Davis has wanted to bring back Gruden ever since taking over team seven years ago. He’s hoping move pays off in team’s final two seasons in Oakland before move to Las Vegas in 2020. Gruden is being counted on to bring out best from Carr, who went from MVP candidate in 2016 to mediocre last season as he dealt with injuries. His protection got worse and his receivers were inconsistent. Even if Gruden does manage to spark offense, defense will need to take big step forward for Raiders to get back into playoff contention.—
