Every team's unfinished business (Make Eric Ebron their new go-to guy. Megatron has faded to black, leaving Golden Tate and former Bengal Marvin Jones as the starting wide receivers. But those two are feisty big-play guys; Matthew Stafford needs a big-target security blanket. Ebron (6-4, 265) put it together late in his second season, and the Lions should trust his hands and routes to make the first-rounder a lot more active in Year 3.  Sort out the backfield. Ameer Abdullah had a rough first season in Detroit, and another promising rookie option, Zach Zenner, was felled by injury. Joique Bell is gone. Theo Riddick isn’t built to be a featured option. The Lions need to see what they can get out of their two new options, veteran Stevan Ridley and rookie Dewayne Washington. Nothing can be ruled out for a team that finished dead last in rushing last season.  Get A’Shawn Robinson pro ready fast. For defensive tackles, it’s not easy to get there and deliver as rookies, as players such as the Rams’ Aaron Donald are more the exception than the rule. Robinson, the Lions’ second-rounder, has great physical talent to be a complete, dominant tackle, but he needs to find a comfortable role where he isn’t overwhelmed. The Lions need to decide if they want to mold him first as a steady inside run stopper or flashy inside pass rusher.):  http://www.sportingnews.com/nfl/list/nfl-offseason-priorities-to-do-list-kaepernick-bradford-von-miller-rgiii-tom-brady-suspension/or9olor77fkr1tu1i5ak7mjao/slide/11
