Lions' Projected Week 1 Depth Chart: https://www.si.com/nfl/lions/news/lions-projected-week-1-depth-chart
Ceiling, floor for each NFL team in 2022 (Detroit Lions (2021 record: 3-13-1) - Ceiling: 7-10, miss playoffs. The Lions are on the right track under Dan Campbell, building a talented offense led by excellent wide receivers in Amon-Ra St. Brown, DJ Chark, and Jameson Williams. Detroit's offensive line is also one of the most underrated units in the game, pacing the way for D'Andre Swift to be an emerging star in the league. Aidan Hutchinson is the perfect fit for a defense that was one of the worst in football last year. He'll make life easier for the secondary while Detroit can finally get after the quarterback consistently. The Lions are on the right path, which will showcase itself in 2022. Floor: 5-12, miss playoffs. Detroit should still be better than last season, but the defense needs a lot of work -- specifically at linebacker. The pass rush should be better with Hutchinson, Alim McNeill, and Charles Harris, but will also need to stop the run consistently. Playing in the NFC North should help improve Detroit's record, yet the Lions still need significant work on defense. Jeff Okudah also needs to show some signs he's the shutdown corner the Lions thought they drafted two years ago. There's also no excuse for Jared Goff either -- or Detroit will be looking for a franchise quarterback next year. ): https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ceiling-and-floor-for-all-32-nfl-teams-bills-chiefs-bengals-bucs-packers-looking-to-dethrone-rams/
Agent's Take: 10 defenders entering pivotal year (Jeff Okudah, CB, Lions: Okudah didn't play anything like the third overall pick in the 2020 draft two seasons ago as a rookie. Opposing quarterbacks completed 76% of passes (38 of 50 attempts) against him, according to PFF, before missing the last six games with a groin injury. Okudah only played 48 snaps in 2021 because he tore his left Achilles in the season opener. He earned a spot in Detroit's starting lineup in training camp. How Okudah performs this season will determine whether the Lions pick up his fifth-year option for 2024 next offseason.): https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/an-agents-take-j-j-watt-fletcher-cox-among-10-defensive-players-in-pivotal-year-or-with-something-to-prove/
