The Detroit Lions wasted no time replacing Carlton Davis III, signing cornerback D.J. Reed to a three-year, $48 million deal. While some fans see Reed as a downgrade from Davis—especially given the difference in height and PFF grades—many in Detroit are optimistic about the move. A poll from LionsFanReport showed that over 71% of voters gave the signing an A grade.
Meanwhile, Packers fans aren’t thrilled about another top free-agent target landing in Detroit. Green Bay still has major holes to fill in the secondary, especially with Jaire Alexander’s future uncertain. The pressure is mounting for the Packers’ front office to make a move before the talent pool dries up.
