Lions Target Oregon's Pregnon for Guard Position

0:00It's March 23rd, I'm Kory with the story, and this is NFL News Today, your AI-powered football briefing. The Detroit Lions are focusing on their interior offensive line this offseason. They brought in Kade Mays as a starter at center and signed Larry Borum to help at guard. Still, Team Watches say drafting another guard makes sense, with Oregon's Emmanuel Pregnant standing out as a solid early to mid-round pick. Pregnant projects as a second or third-rounder, ranking around number 38 on some draft boards. He transferred from Wyoming to USC before landing at Oregon, showing steady improvement over recent years, fans and analysts like his reliability on the field. Over the past three seasons he played in every game, with just minor tweaks like a leg issue early last year and an ankle problem before that. No big red flags there. The main question mark is his age, likely around 24 by next season. But the Lions have gone that route before, grabbing a 24-year-old guard in the second

1:00round, last time around. As the draft nears, Pregnant could be a smart fit if he slides into that range, helping shore up Detroit's line for the long haul.
