DeAndre Hopkins landing spots: Bills, Chiefs, Lions among best NFL team fits for free-agent receiver (Detroit Lions - Surprise! Free agency proved Detroit is indeed a desirable destination these days, and Hopkins would fit into this roster seamlessly. With everyone available, the Lions would be looking at a receiving corps featuring Hopkins, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams (after serving his suspension), Marvin Jones and Josh Reynolds. That's a far cry from the group they played with for most of 2022, and after a productive offensive season with less, the potential would make Lions fans salivate. A year ago, this would have been a laughable landing spot. But as free-agent signee David Montgomery said this week, Dan Campbell is a coach for whom players want to run through a wall. Hopkins would provide Detroit with an experienced target who could also help guide the team through what Lions fans hope will be a run to the postseason. And as long as Jared Goff can produce at a rate similar to his 2022 output, it would be an ideal pairing.): https://www.nfl.com/news/deandre-hopkins-landing-spots-bills-chiefs-lions-among-best-nfl-team-fits-for-fr
Three DeAndre Hopkins Free Agency Destinations (Detroit Lions: This is an interesting place for Hopkins to land. The Lions could use some reinforcements in the wideout room after Jameson Williams got hit with a six-game suspension for gambling. They have $17 million in cap space to work with right now so they could probably outbid most of the other suitors. And of the teams with over $10 million in cap space Detroit is probably the best set up to win this season, which theoretically gives Hopkins everything he's looking for. The Lions just might not be interested. At least publicly they've put a notably strong emphasis on adding guys to the locker room that fit their culture and Hopkins is basically a mercenary right now, which isn't a bad thing but not really Detroit's vibe under Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes. Talent tends to speak louder than words, though, so we'll see.): https://www.thebiglead.com/posts/deandre-hopkins-free-agency-destinations-patriots-bills-lions-01h1ewr3skve
The 2023 NFL draft GPAs for all 32 teams (Detroit Lions - 2.54): https://draftwire.usatoday.com/lists/the-2023-nfl-draft-gpa-grades-best-worst-32-teams/
32 NFL veterans who could lose their jobs to rookies in 2023 (Detroit Lions: TE Brock Wright: Wright took over as Detroit’s primary tight end following the in-season trade of T.J. Hockenson. His run as the Lions’ starting tight end appears to have come to an abrupt end with the team drafting Iowa’s Sam LaPorta with the No. 34 overall pick. Wright has done well for himself as a former undrafted free agent who played his way into a starting role. However, he cannot match LaPorta’s speed, receiving ability or overall versatility. It’s back to being a solid reserve for Wright, who figures to be the Lions’ top blocking tight end now that LaPorta usurps him on the overall depth chart. – Jeff Risdon, Lions Wire): https://draftwire.usatoday.com/lists/32-nfl-veterans-who-could-lose-their-jobs-to-rookies-in-2023/
