Five NFC teams that must ace the 2026 NFL Draft: Cowboys have two first-round picks to address leaky defense (Detroit Lions:  The Lions are another team in a win-now window, and they have some holes that really need filling. After missing the playoffs despite being projected as a Super Bowl contender, they're also picking earlier within each round than anybody expected, so they have a chance to add players who make a greater impact than you might have thought they'd have coming into the 2025 season.  For the Lions to get back to the top of what might be the most competitive division in the NFL, they have to come away from this draft with impact players along both lines, and with only two top 100 picks they probably need to use both of those selections up front. Luckily for them, the tackle and edge rusher classes are considered pretty strong into the areas of each round where they'll be in position to select each one.):  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfc-teams-that-must-ace-2026-nfl-draft/
