Rookies checked in yesterday without a rookie minicamp. Most draft picks put pen to paper. One exception stands out. Blake Miller remains unsigned, though there is little to negotiate. Derek Moore is the headline. The Lions locked the No. 44 pick into a four-year, $11,426,000 contract. Fully guaranteed at signing. That mirrors a growing NFL shift. Last year, top second-rounders pushed for guarantees like first-rounders. Teams such as the Texans and Browns agreed. The trend extended down to the 40th pick in 2025, Saints quarterback Tyler Shuck. Third-rounders still tend to get only their signing bonuses guaranteed. The financial landscape is changing fast, and the Lions moved with it. Inside Pick 37: The Call and the Restraint The New York Giants released their draft room video. In it, GM Joe Shane takes a call while on the clock at No. 37. You can hear him say 118, 128, and 157.

Detroit read the board and got their guy without spending the extra capital. Holmes’ Aggression, This Time in Check There is a pattern with Brad Holmes. He targets his players and goes hard. In 2021, he said he would have traded into the first round for Levi Anzuriki. The cost to acquire Isaac Tussle was steep too. Two third-round picks this year and one last year. Value can blur when conviction takes over. This time, restraint showed. The Lions avoided an unnecessary jump to 37 and kept usefu… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-detroit-lions-podcast-1064987/episodes/daily-dlp-schedule-leaks-derrick-moore-contract-and-more-detroit-lions-podcast/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-detroit-lions-podcast-1064987/daily-dlp-schedule-leaks-derrick-moore-contract-and-more-detroit-lions-podcast.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
