Gil Brandt: 8 biggest roster concerns across the NFL (3. Lions - WR: The Lions made progress on their rebuild in the draft (namely on defense), but it would have been unrealistic to expect the new leadership in Detroit to effectively patch all of the team's roster holes in one offseason. And wide receiver looks especially unsettled following the departures of Kenny Golladay (to the Giants) and Marvin Jones (to the Jaguars) in free agency. Detroit's two biggest acquisitions at the spot come loaded with question marks: Breshad Perriman logged double-digit starts last season for the first time in his six-year career, and he's topped 35 catches and 500 receiving yards only once, while Tyrell Williams missed all of 2020 with a torn labrum and hasn't cracked 1,000 yards since 2016. Detroit eschewed taking a receiver in Round 1 of this year's draft, instead jumping at the chance to grab tackle Penei Sewell seventh overall. Fourth-round pick Amon-Ra St. Brown will be in the mix, along with Kalif Raymond (who produced 18 catches over the past two seasons combined) and 2020 fifth-rounder Quintez Cephus. But between this group and a shaky running game, the task facing Jared Goff -- proving he can be a bona fide franchise QB after being traded from the more talented Rams to the Motor City -- looks tough.): https://www.nfl.com/news/2021-nfl-season-eight-biggest-remaining-roster-concerns
Ranking all 32 NFL secondaries ahead of the 2021 season (30. DETROIT LIONS: If Detroit’s secondary is to pan out as anything other than one of the worst units in the NFL, it will need bounce-back seasons from several players. Jeffrey Okudah is at the forefront of that after leading all cornerbacks in yards allowed per coverage snap as a rookie (2.3). Okudah surrendered just 0.8 yards per coverage snap in his Ohio State career by comparison. The list extends to free agent acquisition Quinton Dunbar, whose overall grade fell nearly 40 points from 2019 to 2020. Tracy Walker is another player who has proven capable of much better play than the 51.0 PFF grade next to his name in 2020. It’s just a matter of how those players look in Aaron Glenn’s new defense.): https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-ranking-32-nfl-secondaries-entering-2021-season
