Lions trade up again for an o-lineman, selecting LSU's Frazier in the fifth round
Allen Park — For the third time in two days, the Detroit Lions packaged multiple picks to move up in the 2025 NFL Draft, sending a sixth and seventh-round selection to the New England Patriots for No. 171 overall in the fifth round to take LSU offensive lineman Miles Frazier.
A three-year starter at LSU, Frazier is a plus athlete with excellent size, measuring in at 6-foot-5 and 317 pounds during the pre-draft process. He played left tackle for Florida International in 2021 before transferring to LSU, where he transitioned to the interior, seeing time at both left and right guard, with the latter position being his primary position over the past two seasons.
During that two-season stretch, Frazier thrived in pass protection, allowing just one sack and 19 total pressures.
To acquire Frazier, the Lions shipped out picks No. 182 and 228 to the Patriots in this year’s draft. The LSU product is the second offensive lineman drafted by Detroit this year, following Tate Ratledge, who the team secured in the second round on Friday with the 57th pick.
