The Detroit Lions finalized the trade for wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa, moving up 30 spots to acquire him in the 2025 NFL Draft. TeSlaa had a promising rookie season with 16 catches and six touchdowns, and he is expected to be the No. 3 receiver in 2026.
The Lions received the 2025 third-round pick (No. 72), sixth-round pick (No. 182), and a 2026 sixth-round pick, while the Jaguars received the 2025 third-round pick (No. 102) and two 2026 third-round picks.
TeSlaa finished his rookie season with 16 catches for 239 yards and six touchdowns, ranking as Detroit's No. 4 receiver.
The Jaguars used the No. 102 pick to select guard Wyatt Milum after trading up, and they also have the 81st and 100th picks in the 2026 NFL Draft.
TeSlaa is expected to step up as the No. 3 receiver for the Lions in 2026, with hopes that he will develop into a high-quality player after a promising rookie year.

The Lions traded up for Isaac TeSlaa, taking him with the No. 72 pick. They then used the No. 182 pick in a later trade, moving up 11 spots with the New England Patriots to take guard Miles Frazier. Detroit sent back an extra seventh-round pick in that second trade. They have the 213th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, too. We will update when the pick is used.
TeSlaa ended up being Detroit’s No. 4 receiver as a rookie behind Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, and Kalif Raymond. He had a couple of highlight-reel catches, finishing the year with 16 catches for 239 yards and six touchdowns. The red zone and deep threat capabilities were both keys to why Detroit took him at No. 72, and they were both seen in flashes during TeSlaa’s rookie year. He’s now slated to be the No. 3 receiver in 2026.
Jacksonville traded up after acquiring the No. 102 pick. They moved up 13 spots to take guard Wyatt Milum, sending a fifth-round pick to the Minnesota Vikings, while receiving a seventh-round pick as well in the deal. In the 2026 NFL Draft, they have the 81st and 100th overall picks. We will update when they are used.
This was certainly a bold move from Brad Holmes and Co., as Detroit had a major overpay on most trade value charts by giving up the three third-rounders for Teslaa. But all will be forgiven if Teslaa breaks out into a high-quality receiver for the Lions. He should get more opportunities as a second-year pro, although he’ll still be working behind Jameson Williams and Amon-Ra St. Brown, but his skillset fits the offense and his size in the red zone is a major plus. Still, though, it was considered a bit of a reach at the time, and it doesn’t help that Detroit made a major move to add the wideout as well with the amount of capital they gave up.
