The Detroit Lions may not have made the biggest splash in free agency, but their moves are still worth dissecting. Pride of Detroit’s latest podcast breaks down the team’s signings, departures, and overall strategy, handing out awards for the best, worst, and most surprising moves.
One key discussion point is the Lions’ heavy focus on retaining defensive linemen, bringing back eight players from last year’s squad. While this reinforces depth, questions remain about whether Detroit has done enough to bolster its pass rush. The signing of Avonte Maddox adds experience to the secondary, but does it move the needle?
The podcast also covers the Lions’ three rule change proposals and how they could impact the game. With the draft approaching, the team still has gaps to fill, and speculation continues about whether they will make a bold move to add another edge rusher.
