2024 NFL Draft Start Time, Location, and How to Watch

Excitement builds as Detroit Lions prepare for 2024 NFL Draft in Detroit with seven picks, including No. 29 in first round.

The excitement for the 2024 NFL Draft is palpable as it is just two weeks away, and this year, Detroit Lions' fans have an extra reason to be thrilled as the draft will be held in their city.

The Lions have a total of seven picks in this year's draft, with their first pick coming at No. 29 in the first round. They also have picks at No. 61 in the second round, No. 73 in the third round, No. 164 in the fifth round, No. 201 and No. 205 in the sixth round, and finally, No. 249 in the seventh round.

Interestingly, the Lions do not have a fourth-round pick this year, as it was traded to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for T.J. Hockenson back in 2022. This means that there will be a long wait of 91 picks from the third round to the fifth round, spanning from Day 2 to Day 3 of the draft. It is likely that general manager Brad Holmes will look to make a trade to fill this gap during the draft.

The 2024 NFL Draft is scheduled to take place on April 25-27, 2024, at Campus Martius Park and Hart Plaza in Detroit, Michigan. The draft will follow the same format as previous years, with rounds and starting times for each day. The event will be broadcast on ESPN, ABC, and NFL Network, providing fans with multiple viewing options.

Overall, the anticipation for the upcoming draft is high, and Lions' fans are eager to see how the team will utilize their picks to improve their roster for the upcoming season. With the draft being held in Detroit, there is an added level of excitement and buzz surrounding the event.
