With the 2025 NFL Draft now in the books, the Detroit Lions are entering the next phase of their offseason with most of their roster pieces already in place. While there may still be a signing or two before training camp kicks off, fans can expect that the current depth chart largely reflects the team that will take the field this season.
In the latest episode of the Pride of Detroit PODcast, the crew took a deep dive into the Lions’ roster, breaking down strengths, weaknesses, and the battles still to be settled ahead of the regular season. One clear takeaway: this roster is as deep and talented as it’s been in years.
The conversation highlighted where Detroit is strongest, where they remain vulnerable, and which positions are set for the long term. Importantly, the podcast also pointed out that while the core of the team is solid, there are still spots up for grabs. Backup roles like tight end three, offensive line depth, sixth wide receiver, and third safety will be hotly contested in training camp. Even a few starting jobs — like the open guard position — remain to be claimed in the coming months.
Overall, this exercise underscored that Detroit is in a great spot heading into 2025. No NFL roster is without holes, but between blue-chip talent, quality depth, and only a few remaining needs, the Lions are well positioned for another playoff run.
