The Detroit Lions appear perfectly content with one area that was not emphasized as essentially promised by general manager Brad Holmes this offseason–the No.2 quarterback spot behind Jared Goff. And no, a “strong contract offer” to Teddy Bridgewater does not qualify as proper emphasis on a position that could torpedo a promising season if Goff were to go down.
So let’s assume the Lions will not be adding another quarterback, not that the free agents are all that enticing now anyway (Bridgewater and Carson Wentz are the top two, with Nick Foles as a notable name who might be regarded as a fit).
Leaving aside recent cuts, there’s a reason someone who is available in mid-June is still available in mid-June if they could have been signed in March. Age, injury history, coming of a down year, contract demands, etc. So that has to be taken into consideration, in terms of who could be signed right now and how much of a difference they could actually make.
That said, the Lions have some potential depth concerns at spots on their roster, and fostering competition is always a good thing.
