2024 NFL Free Agency matchmaking: One team fit for 15 notable free agents (Brian Burns
Edge - Detroit Lions:  After winning their first division title since the Clinton Administration, Detroit has north of $50 million to spend to upgrade a team that is already a title contender. The Lions also happen to have one of the NFL’s great young talents at edge rusher in Aidan Hutchinson, but he can’t handle the pass-rushing job alone. The addition of Burns would produce a dream edge-rushing pairing in Detroit, and if there ever was a time to spend on a young talent who is just entering his prime, it’s now. Burns might finally get the credit he deserves by playing in a place other than Carolina, and the tandem could elevate a defense that was good at times, but too inconsistent to get them to the Super Bowl.):  https://www.nfl.com/news/2024-nfl-free-agency-matchmaking-one-team-fit-for-15-notable-free-agents
