Analysts were asked to evaluate players on how they expect the athletes will perform this upcoming season, rather than rate them on their past performances.
Here’s where the six Lions landed:
19. Aidan Hutchinson, ranked No. 67 in 2023
24. Penei Sewell, ranked No. 72 in 2023
25. Amon-Ra St. Brown, ranked No. 61 in 2023
52. Jahmyr Gibbs, unranked in 2023
65. Jared Goff, No. 91 in 2023
68. Sam LaPorta, unranked in 2023
Two things — firstly, the massive leaps every previously ranked Lion made on this list was both surprising and not that surprising, given they made it to the NFC Championship. Secondly, it’s beyond impressive that two Lions were good enough as rookies, brand new to the NFL, to be considered among the top 100 this season.
In case you’re wondering, the team with the highest number of players on the list was the San Francisco 49ers (ouch) with just two more than the Lions. Five teams failed to have any players on the list at all. I thought, ‘Huh, that was probably Detroit just a few years ago.’ Sure enough, no Lions made this same list in 2022.
