Jordan Reid · Apr 20, 2026
In his seven-round ESPN mock draft, Reed projected Fernando Mendoza first overall to the Raiders, had Monroe Freeling going 17th to Detroit as its future tackle, and gave the Lions Michigan edge Derrick Moore at No. 50, with a full slate of other first-round tackle projections.
“So at number 17 in Jordan reads, espn.com mock draft, He is the lion selecting Monroe Freeling, the tackle from Georgia.”
