The Detroit Lions continue to add to their cornerback room during free agency. They reportedly will be signing former Raiders fourth-round pick Amik Robertson. Robertson has versatility and that’s something the Lions love. He played both outside and slot corner for the Raiders in 2023 and started 12 games for the team. Robertson finished the
Last month, we wondered aloud whether the Detroit Lions could make a move regarding the contract of defensive end John Cominsky. Last year, the Lions signed Cominsky to a two-year, $8.5 million deal, but the veteran defensive end had a down year on the field. With his cap hit jumping from just $2.3 million in…
The Detroit Lions kicked off free agency with a trade, acquiring cornerback Carlton Davis III from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Davis, along with a sixth-round pick in both the 2024 and 2025 NFL Drafts, were traded in exchange for the latter of the Lions’ two third-round picks (92nd overall, with the earlier pick coming from…
It’s been no secret that the Lions needed to find improvements at certain positions on defense. Just off the top, cornerback and defensive end have been the most commonly discussed positions for improvement on defense. During the first day of free agency, the Lions jumped right in to find those improvements. Prior to striking a
If you haven’t been paying attention to Brad Holmes’ comments this postseason, then you may have felt a bit uneasy during or after Day 1 of NFL free agency. Holmes has said many times that the moves made in these months are to win in December, not to win March, April or May, and that…
The Detroit Lions made a major trade on Monday when they agreed to send a third-round pick to the Buccaneers for cornerback Carlton Davis, a 2024 sixth round pick and a 2025 fifth round pick. Davis is expected to play a big role in the Lions secondary in 2024 as they aim to move back
Day One of NFL free agency was a whirlwind and then some. The late Bill Paxton would need to develop a whole new Dorothy system to register what happened once the dust settled. For the NFL, day one is just the start of it which means day two will be even harder. The Lions and
The Detroit Lions had an active Day 1 of free agency. They started by re-signing one of their players, Graham Glasgow. Later in the day, they agreed to terms with a free agent in Marcus Davenport, and they closed out the night by trading with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to land cornerback Carlton Davis. Lions…
The Lions Draft Prospect of the Day is an appropriate choice, with the Lions checking out his pro day on Monday. The focus is on players who should hold some appeal to the Lions in the draft, with a focus on the more likely positions the team will be targeting. If you’re looking for quarterbacks

Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes zigged while the rest of the NFL world was zagging. While news broke that free agent after free agent was being signed to new deals, Holmes looked to the trade block to plug one of his team’s biggest offseason holes. Per Adam Schefter, the Lions executed a trade with
The first agreement has happened out in Detroit. The Detroit Lions have agreed to terms on a one-year deal $6.5 million deal (max value of $10.5 million) with defensive end Marcus Davenport.

The Detroit Lions have made their first (internal) splash of free agency. According to a report from Adam Schefter, the Lions are signing Graham Glasgow to a three-year, $20 million deal. The move comes as no real surprise. Glasgow was fantastic last season upon his return to Detroit and there was mutual interest in running
Davis was someone we had on our top five corners the Lions could trade for board last week and he fits what this team needs. A guy that can come in and be a solid cornerback two for the Lions. The former second round pick has spent his entire career with the Buccaneers and and
