Unlike all those years when the Detroit Lions had picks towards the top of the draft, it will be hard to know who might be available and who the Lions might draft with the 29th pick. I’ll polish up the crystal ball and take a look at some options in a future article. One thing
The Detroit Lions hosted their annual pro day for locally based NFL draft prospects on Tuesday. Over 20 players took advantage of the workout opportunity.

It’s not as sexy as a new uniform, but having new options to keep players safe on the field is just as important. NFL players will be able to choose from 12 new helmets next season, including eight that are position specific, per NFL.com’s Judy Battista. Five of those new helmets held up better in…
The Seattle Seahawks announced on Tuesday that they have signed offensive tackle Max Pircher. If that name sounds familiar, it should. Pircher was a member of the Lions for the entirety of the 2023 season as a part of the NFL international pathways program. Pircher, an Italian-born player, occupied a roster-exempted spot on the team…
With the 2024 NFL draft coming up quickly, it’s a good time to reassess the biggest team needs for the Detroit Lions. Even with no immediate needs for any starters, there are still considerable holes in the roster for GM Brad Holmes and his crew to address in the draft and perhaps free agency thereafter.
It’s that time of the year, and it’s getting even closer to being time to see who the Las Vegas Raiders drafted. The 2024 NFL Draft is to help make their future brighter than it already is. The free agency period went well for the Raiders, as they grabbed them a bridge quarterback for insurance
The Detroit Lions have had a need on their roster for a receiver for a while now. Not just any receiver though, we’re talking a big bodied receiver that can go up and get the contested catch. The thought process was that the Lions would get that player in the draft. A lot of their
The 2024 NFL Draft is almost here and soon downtown Detroit will be packed full of football fans looking to find out who their team will draft. Until then, there’s going to be a lot of Detroit Lions fans wondering if the Lions will actually make a pick at the 29th spot or will they
The Minnesota Vikings are on the clock in our 2024 Pride of Detroit Community Mock Draft with the 11th overall pick. Given that the Vikings have already made a trade to acquire a second first-round pick, many assume they won’t be picking with the 11th pick. The assumption is that they’ll use Picks 11 and…
Free agency is pretty much in the books for the Detroit Lions. They walked into the process with quite a few of their own free agents and they’ve managed to bring back 16 players that were on their roster in 2023. I think there’s one more that the Lions should consider bringing back and that’s
NFL free agency is still going on, even with the primary focus on the upcoming 2024 NFL draft. The good folks at Bleacher Report recently picked one remaining free agent who can help each NFL team. The suggestion for the Detroit Lions is an interesting one. Linebacker Zach Cunningham, who spent 2023 with the Philadelphia
Today’s Lions Draft Prospect of the Day is overshadowed by a more prominent teammate in this class but is a very strong prospect in his own right. The focus for these potential Lions prospects is on players who should hold some appeal for Detroit in the draft. Not all will be top-100 players. This one
The Detroit Lions are coming off of their best season in three decades, so they should probably try and make sure they can sustain this success moving forward. Bleacher Report’s Alex Ballentine thinks the Lions will take a major step toward achieving that this offseason, predicting that they will sign wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown
The Detroit Lions have given every indication that they plan to sign wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown to a contract extension this offseason. Bleacher Report’s Alex Ballentine predicted that extension will be coming very soon. Ballentine projected the Lions to sign St. Brown to a 4-year, $115 million contract extension before the NFL draft. The
