Bish & Brown Live: 2026 NFL Draft Q&a - Detroit Lions Podcast

Draft-Eve Plans and Live Coverage Draft eve in Detroit. The Detroit Lions Podcast went live with Russell Brown, Scott Bischoff, Chris, and Jeff Risdon. The crew laid out a busy week and took questions. Brown will be on WJR with Anthony Collins and Lomas Brown from 6 to 7 PM on Thursday. It could run longer. If timing allows, he may jump back with Chris, Jeff, and Dion to react in real time. Friday brings WJR again, then a reset of the board. After that, Brown will join Fantasy Pros from picks 35 to 48. He plans to step off to watch the Detroit Lions make their move, then return to the Detroit Lions Podcast to break it down. Day three is lighter. A 7 AM coaches meeting and a baseball game sit on the calendar. He usually misses one game a year. It is almost always day three of the NFL Draft. No. 2 Overall: David Bailey vs Arvel Reed The conversation centered on the Jets at pick two. Two names led the talk: David Bailey and Arvel Reed. The hosts are not enamored with Bailey’s full profile. They acknowledged his explosive, linear pass rush. That first step stresses college tackles. It can stress NFL tackles too. But they see a lacking run defender. That is a concern at the top of the board. Reed’s profile is different. He comes from Ohio State and is not a finished product. He tested like a premium athlete. Around 240 to 241 pounds. Speed in the mid 4.4s. He flashes when he rushes, but the room sees him starting as a stacked linebacker. The Micah Parsons talk does not land for them. If he must begin off the ball, they questioned if that is a player you take second overall. Smoke remains thick. Maybe it is Bailey. Maybe the Jets have played months of misdirection. Other names were mentioned as possible wild cards, from Mansoor Ford Delaney to downs. If the card read Caleb Brown, it would make sense to them. One more wrinkle: Bailey’s media hits, including SNY, did not sound like deep pre-draft engagement beyond a dinner. Even so, a final mock tonight would still slide Bailey to the Jets. What It Means for the Detroit Lions Detroit’s plan starts with what happens at two. If the Jets choose Bailey, the board tilts one way. If they choose Reed, it tilts another. A stacked linebacker at two reshapes the early run at edge rusher. A true linear edge at two affects the second wave of offensive and defensive options. The hosts plan to reset the board Friday and react fast. Coverage spans radio, national hits, and live podcast windows tied to picks 35 to 48. The aim is simple. Track the Jets’ decision, map the fallout, and target the best path for the Detroit Lions. The NFL turns quickly. The Detroit Lions Podcast will be there as the board breaks. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #nfldraft #davidbailey #arvelreed #jetspicktwo #stackedlinebacker #edgerusher #linearpassrush #rundefender #resettheboard #picks35to48 #fantasypros #wjr #sny Learn more about your ad choices.
