We’ve reached the second half of February. Now it’s time to start talking about free agent prospects for the Detroit Lions. Here’s what we’re going to do. I’m going to break it all down by positions of need. First we’ll put out of list of players to watch for the Lions and then we’ll break
The 2023 Detroit Lions season did not have a shortage of memorable moments. When a team erases droughts of three decades or longer, it tends to stick in your head for a while. But was there one moment—one play—that sticks out above the rest? We’ll decide that today as we examine our latest Pride of…
After the Detroit Lions’ loss to the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game, coach Dan Campbell offered a chilling statement to his team and the media. “I told those guys, this may have been our only shot,” Campbell said. “Do I think that? No. Do I believe that? No. However, I know how hard it…
The Detroit Lions are entering a critical junction in their current era: how can they achieve that next step? Though 2023 was a season to remember, it is also just a memory now. Time moves on, and so too do players and contracts. The Lions will have many decisions to make with free agents. Who…
We are just 66 days away from the 2024 NFL Draft and Lions fans for once will have a long wait for their first pick. As of right now, they are set to be the 29th overall pick in the draft. Even picking that late, this draft is set up for them to get someone
Draft season is back! The 2024 NFL draft is in Detroit in April, and we’re getting very close to the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis. It’s time to fire up the “Lions Draft Prospect of the Day” series. The focus is on players who should hold some appeal to the Lions in the draft, with
The Detroit Lions defense had some issues in 2023, to be sure. Deep passes were a problem, as were defending quarterback runs. However, Aaron Glenn’s defense in 2023 thrived at one specific thing: stopping opposing running backs. The Lions defense allowed the fewest rushing yards to running backs of any NFL team in the 2023
The Detroit Lions are likely to make some significant changes in their defensive roster this offseason. Not only are there a handful of free agents who may not come back (Charles Harris, Romeo Okwara, Will Harris, Emmanuel Moseley, C.J. Gardner-Johnson), but Detroit obviously has a ton of needs on that side, particularly when it comes…
The 2024 NFL Combine officially kicks off on Sunday, February 25, but we won’t see the prospects in action until the on-field drills are televised on Thursday, February 29.

After a nice career as an undrafted free agent (four seasons with the Lions and then a handful of games with the Cardinals, Dolphins, and Saints in 2019), fan favorite Zach Zenner left the game in 2019 but returned in a different way off the field. Last time we saw him, Zenner was released right…
The free agent period begins soon in the NFL. While it officially doesn’t fire up until mid-March, the NFL Scouting Combine typically marks when teams and agents really begin earnestly courting one another in free agency, too. The Detroit Lions figure to be net spenders in free agency once again. That’s as much of a
Bears Amidst the drama surrounding the Bears’ quarterback situation, Chicago LB T.J. Edwards chimed in how he feels about QB Justin Fields. Edwards spoke very highly about Fields to the media at Super Bowl Week, advocating for why he should be brought back. “What I love about him is I could tell him Day 1
Ever since Brad Holmes’ arrival in Detroit as general manager, he’s made a habit of nailing each NFL Draft class, and 2023 could turn out to be his best yet. Despite all of the criticisms thrown at him following his first few picks last year, Holmes has stuck to his process every step of the…
This is truly one of my favorite things to do each year. With free agency coming up there’s plenty of Detroit Lions fans that take to Twitter and put out tweets that say something to the effect of “Lions should sign blank.” This is my time to break some hearts and explain why you really
