The team has done an excellent job filling their most pressing needs in free agency, which has freed up general manager Brad Holmes…
Whether it’s wasting a top pick on an eventual bust or finding a late-round diamond in the rough, drafting is not an easy process. There is no blueprint. There is no real way to know that a player will work out — that their success in college will translate to the NFL. The stakes are…
Whether or when the Detroit Lions draft a quarterback this year is to be determined, but they are being regarded as a ‘safe’ landing spot for one of the top prospects at the position. The Detroit Lions may draft a quarterback this year, and in some sense they should with an eye on the future

With a six-game suspension now costing him a chunk of his second NFL season, Jameson Williams’ fantasy value is just about in the tank right now. When the Detroit Lions moved up to take him in last year’s draft, they (and Lions fans) knew Jameson Williams‘ rookie season was going to be largely a redshirt

The current state of the Detroit Lions’ cornerback room is in much better shape than it was last year. After adding three starters via free agency in Cameron Sutton, Emmanuel Moseley, and C.J. Gardner Johnson, the secondary is primed for some big improvements, but there is still an opportunity for general manager Brad Holmes to…

The Detroit Lions now have nine selections in the 2023 NFL Draft, barring any further moves before or during the proceedings.

Suspended for a year then cut, it appears former Detroit Lions safety C.J. Moore will keep his entire signing bonus.

Moore—were found to have gambled on NFL games, resulting in an indefinite suspension and their immediate release…
Our 2023 NFL mock draft created by our community has come to an end. I want to take a minute to personally thank everyone who participated. Once again, we were able to finish the two-round mock well ahead of schedule. That takes a lot of people working in tandem, and it speaks to the strength…

It can be a very slippery slope, but the Detroit Lions would not be out of bounds to try to recoup some of Jameson Williams’ signing bonus.
