The Lions selected Arkansas WR Isaac TeSlaa with the 70th pick of Round 70th in the 2025 NFL Draft. TeSlaa ran a 4.43 40-time at 6’4 and 214 pounds, outstanding athleticism. TeSlaa started out at D-II Hillsdale, where he stayed from 2020-2022.He started his final two seasons and earned Conference Player of the Year honors in ‘22 (68-1,325-13). His production dipped after transferring to Arkansas. The jump in competition led to only 34-351-2 on a 21.5% target share. TeSlaa’s usage declined with a 9% share in 2024, although he popped as a vertical slot with 19.0 yards per catch on 28 receptions. He had a 9.93 Relative Athletic Score (RAS) based on his predraft testing. He also ranked 49th among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 8.9%, and 35th among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with a 70.5. He is currently 22 years old with a Breakout Age of 19.3. He ranked 33rd among WRs in our Draft Sharks predraft Rookie Model scoring a 5.89. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Matt Jones. His special teams ability and raw upside makes him a potential dynasty stash.
The Lions gave up two 2026 3rds and their 2025 3rd to move up and take TeSlaa.
He is an exceptional athlete, but only caught 28 passes in 2024.
It is unlikely TeSlaa will crack the lineup this season and shouldn't be considered in redraft.
TeSlaa could be an eventual Jameson Williams replacement, but he will need a lot of development.
He is worth a flier in the late third round of rookie drafts, especially if he can be stashed on the taxi squad
