Just when you thought the Detroit Lions’ roster was set, ESPN has tossed out not one — but two — bold trade deadline ideas that could shake up the entire NFC picture.
According to ESPN’s latest trade proposal list, Detroit could make some unexpected moves to strengthen its playoff run — even if it means shaking up positions most fans wouldn’t expect. While the Lions are already one of the league’s most balanced teams, these potential deals would add even more firepower on both sides of the ball.
One suggestion focuses on giving Jared Goff an extra weapon — a move that would make the Lions’ offense even scarier heading into the back half of the season. The other centers around bolstering the secondary, a unit that has battled injuries and inconsistency at times.
While none of these trades are confirmed or even rumored within the team, the fact that ESPN is floating these possibilities shows just how close the Lions are to being seen as true Super Bowl contenders.
Dan Campbell’s squad has already proven they can stand toe-to-toe with anyone. But if Detroit made one of these aggressive deadline splashes, the rest of the NFL might have to start worrying — a lot.
