Five dark-horse contenders to land DeAndre Hopkins (1. Detroit Lions:  The Lions are actually the favorites to win the NFC North this upcoming season, something they haven't done since 1993! This wide receiving corps has a legitimate stud in Amon-Ra St. Brown, a prospective stud in Jameson Williams and a couple of veterans in Josh Reynolds and Marvin Jones Jr. Adding Hopkins would make this one of the most interesting groups in the entire NFL. Why not go all-in this season?
