Pat Caputo - Lions have effectively changed over roster this off season: https://www.theoaklandpress.com/sports/pat-caputo---lions-have-effectively-changed-over-roster-this-off-season/article_abf3b442-7521-11ea-b7f0-4ba4d52e5da9.html
Trotter: Three GMs who should be on the hot seat (Bob Quinn, Detroit Lions: General manager Bob Quinn fired coach Jim Caldwell after the 2017 season, despite three winning campaigns and two playoff appearances in four years. The explanation was that the club needed to take that next step -- never mind that the Lions had managed just two winning seasons and one playoff trip (no wins) in the previous 14 years. Since then, with Matt Patricia being brought in to succeed Caldwell, the Lions have gone 6-10 and 3-12-1. Their drafts have been meh, at best, with a decent number of starters but limited impact performers. Quinn and Patricia both came from the Patriots, so it figures they would lean on that background during times of strife. Their free-agent signings in 2019 included three former Patriots -- edge rusher Trey Flowers, cornerback Rashaan Melvin and wideout Danny Amendola -- and this offseason they've added a former Patriot on every level of their defense: tackle Danny Shelton, linebacker Jamie Collins and safety Duron Harmon. While some of those moves might prove beneficial, a case can easily be made that the roster was weakened by the trade of cornerback Darius Slay to the Eagles. Slay wasn't just the Lions' best defensive back, he was their best defensive player. Adding Desmond Trufant, who was cut by the Falcons this offseason, does not fill the void. Perhaps the Lions will use the No. 3 overall pick on Ohio State cornerback Jeff Okudah, who is considered an elite talent and the best available prospect at the position. Or perhaps they will trade back. Whatever they ultimately do, the fact remains they're still searching for their first high-impact, high draft pick under Quinn.): http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001108183/article/three-nfl-general-managers-who-should-be-on-hot-seat-in-2020
