Lions Add WR Dominic Lovett from Georgia in the Seventh Round

The Detroit Lions selected Georgia WR Dominic Lovett with the 28th pick of Round 7 in the 2025 NFL Draft. Primarily a slot, Lovett proved capable of uncovering on short routes. He can be bullied at the catch point, though, and brings average size to the NFL. Lovett led Missouri in catches (56) and receiving yards (846) as a sophomore in 2022. That represented 22.3% and 30.4% market shares, respectively. The production came alongside WR Luther Burden, albeit the true freshman version. Lovett’s production flatlined at Georgia over the past two seasons. Still, in 2024, he led a squad that lost Brock Bowers and Ladd McConkey to the NFL in catches (59) and receiving yards (607). He had a 6.66 Relative Athletic Score (RAS) based on his predraft testing. He also ranked 30th among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 18.3%, and 39th among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with a 67.2. He is currently 22 years old with a Breakout Age of 19.8. He ranked 27th among WRs in our Draft Sharks predraft Rookie Model scoring a 5.94. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Dede Westbrook.
