Ravens Video Confirms Lions Pulled Draft‑Night Offer for No. 14

War‑room footage confirms Detroit withdrew a near‑market offer for No. 14 as the clock ticked, exposing how timing drives draft decisions.

Overview

  • The Ravens’ war‑room video and an ESPN documentary show Detroit offering picks 17 and 118 plus a 2027 third for No. 14, then pulling it as Baltimore prepared to accept.
  • The sequence followed Miami’s choice of Alabama lineman Kadyn Proctor at No. 12, which multiple reports suggest was Detroit’s target.
  • With the offer gone, Baltimore drafted guard Vega Ioane at 14, while Detroit stayed at 17 for tackle Blake Miller.
  • On Day 2, Detroit traded No. 50 and No. 128 to the Jets for No. 44 to take edge Derrick Moore, and Baltimore, after bracing for a snub, selected edge Zion Young at 45.
  • Trade‑value charts peg Detroit’s offer as close to market price, yet the 2027 third highlighted how teams weigh future picks in a class many evaluators expect to be stronger.
