With the brunt, if not all, of the offseason moves done, here are three worst moves the Detroit Lions made this offseason. The Detroit Lions followed the high note of winning eight of their last 10 games last season with an interesting offseason. In many ways, it was how a team who senses an opportunity

Even coming off one of the best years of his career, Detroit Lions Jared Goff is not that well-regarded compared to his peers. It’s possible to get called a Jared Goff hater if you point it out, but 2022 was one of the best seasons of his career and he seems bound to regress some

After being cut Tuesday by the Denver Broncos, Brandon McManus now lands as an option for the Detroit Lions to upgrade their kicker spot. It’s rare for a kicker to spend his entire NFL career with one team. Up until Tuesday that’s what Brandon McManus had done, landing with the Denver Broncos in 2014 and

After being mentioned before, Courtland Sutton has again been named as a possible trade target for the Detroit Lions. In the wake of the six-game suspension Jameson Wiliams got for violating the NFL’s gambling policy, the Detroit Lions could be considering if they’d make an addition at wide receiver. In a broad sense, there is

After an interesting last few months, here are the three best moves the Detroit Lions have made this offseason. With full team OTAs set to start around the NFL and for the Detroit Lions this week, it’s a good time to reflect on the offseason. Free agency is largely over, at least in terms of

Not that he would say anything else, but Detroit Lions rookie defensive tackle Brodric Martin made his intentions for his first season clear. The Detroit Lions traded up into the end of the third round of April’s draft to select Western Kentucky defensive tackle Brodric Martin. It was a fairly surprising pick, and no one

After having three of their first five games at home, the Detroit Lions will have a tough stretch from Week 6-Week 10. The Detroit Lions will open the 2023 season on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday Sept. 7. Following that game, the Lions will have three of their next four games

Heading toward OTAs and into the summer on the broader calendar, here are five Detroit Lions players who could be cut. The Detroit Lions are now moving into full-team OTAs this coming week, followed by minicamp in June. A full-90 man roster will be whittled down to 53 before Week 1, but there will be

It’s not a fresh sentiment, but Pro Footbal Focus is all-aboard the James Houston breakout bandwagon for 2023. A sixth-round pick in 2022, with a nod to his nickname, James Houston was a “problem” for opposing offensive lines immediately upon taking the field as a rookie. Starting with Thanksgiving against the Buffalo Bills, his first

If the Detroit Lions are looking for an addition to their interior defensive line, Ed Oliver is a potential nice fit on the trade market. Defensive tackle stood as need for the Detroit Lions going into the offseason, and they haven’t allocated significant resources to it. Third-round pick Brodric Martin profiles as a nose tackle,

It could be rationaled to make sense in a vacuum, but the Detroit Lions bringing back Kenny Golladay feels like a huge, huge reach. Upon taking over as Detroit Lions general manager in 2021, Brad Holmes had some big decisions. Matthew Stafford wanted to be traded to a contender, and that came down to working

He won’t be doing so this year, but will Hendon Hooker push Jared Goff to be the Detroit Lions starting quarterback in 2024? When the Detroit Lions took Hendon Hooker in the third round of the draft, it was with an obvious eye beyond 2023. The rookie signal caller is working his way back from

With a possible opportunity in front of him, Detroit Lions rookie Antoine Green wants to quickly show he’s a complete receiver. Without knowing exact numbers, seventh-round picks are instantly in an against-the-odds battle to make an NFL roster, let alone have a noticeable role as a rookie (or ever have a noticeable role, in plenty

On the Detroit Lions 2023 regular season schedule, here are five games with a revenge game angle that’s worth noting. Now that we know the Detroit Lions 2023 regular season schedule, it can be sliced and analyzed in any way you can think of. Straight out game-by-game predictions. Most important games. Games that should be

A significant toe injury has hampered much of the last two seasons for Lions center Frank Ragnow, but he’s trying to remain optimistic. Detroit Lions center Frank Ragnow suffered a torn plantar plate in his left foot against the Chicago Bears in Week 4 of the 2021 season, and missed the rest of the campaign.

The Detroit Lions 2023 preseason schedule has been confirmed, and here are the dates, times and the opponents. With the release of their 2023 regular season schedule, the Detroit Lions also confirmed their three preseason opponents–the New York Giants, Jacksonville Jaguars and Carolina Panthers. But only the time and date of the preseason finale was

Whether the Detroit Lions extend Jared Goff or not is a question, but there’s an interesting new projection out there now. Coming off one of the best seasons of his career and with two years left on his current deal, there’s broadly not a tone of urgency for the Detroit Lions to extend quarterback Jared

The options are obviously not plentiful at this point, but here are four wide receivers the Detroit Lions could still look to bring in this offseason. The Detroit Lions entered the offseason with two tentpoles and virtual locks for prominent roles on their wide receiver depth chart–Amon St. Brown and Jameson Williams. Marvin Jones was

There might be some who are concerned about the wide receiver position for the Detroit Lions while Jameson Williams is suspended, but Louis Riddick is not one of them. ESPN analyst Louis Riddick has been consistently bullish on the direction the Detroit Lions are going in. That being said, if there was something to critique
