Lions

• The Lions’ offensive line deteriorated last season following the departures of C Graham Glasgow and OT Taylor Decker. Jason La Canfora of SportsBoom cites one anonymous general manager who thinks Detroit will add a lineman with its first-round pick: “It’s gotta be an offensive lineman. It seems pretty obvious to us.”
• One personnel executive could see Detroit being motivated to trade up in the first round, given there are only two players in the “surefire rookie starter category.”
• La Canfora reports that the Lions are “very high” on Alabama OT Kadyn Proctor.
• Cincinnati DL Jay Hunt will visit the Lions. (Ryan Fowler)
• Tony Pauline of EssentiallySports, citing sources, reports that the Lions have “zeroed in” on Alabama OT Kadyn Proctor with its first-round pick at No. 17 overall. 
• Pauline writes that Detroit wants to run the ball more effectively in 2026, and the organization believes pairing Proctor with OT Penei Sewell could create a “dominant run-blocking duo.”
• Lions LB Derrick Barnes‘ contract structure was updated after it was initially filed incorrectly. He will make a base salary of $1.345 million in 2027 to go along with a $6.145 million option bonus, instead of a $7.49 million base salary, per Justin Rogers.

Vikings

• Vikings interim GM Rob Brzezinski said they aren’t looking to trade OLB Jonathan Greenard, but implied it might be their best course of action: “It’s not like we’ve been trying to move him. That’s not the case. We’re a much better football team with him.” (Alec Lewis)
• Minnesota HC Kevin O’Connell thinks keeping OL Blake Brandel at center will be best for his development, especially with their need at the position: “We want to do what’s best for Blake to ascend and reach his highest potential at one position. We want to have him, more than likely, at that center spot.” (Lewis)
• O’Connell can’t wait to get LT Christian Darrisaw back: “He’s so impactful. I don’t think we put enough credence and weight into (that position’s) impact, depending on whether they win or lose the snap.” (Lewis)
• Coming off the torn ACL, O’Connell wants to do everything they can to make sure Darrisaw can be available every game: “We’re going to do what we think is best to get Christian ready to play 17 games and feel his absolute best.” (Lewis)
