Which NFL division winners are at risk of first-to-worst fall? (4. Detroit Lions: This could be the year Campbell and Co. vault this long woebegone organization to its first Super Bowl. The Lions seem to have talent and cultural buy-in in spades coming off a near miss in the 2023 NFC title game. But, like the Bills, they seem to have legit pursuers in the Green Bay Packers and apparently resuscitated Chicago Bears. Yet if things get really sideways, Detroit could be in jeopardy of also being bypassed by Minnesota given the talent – young as some of it is – that remains on that roster, to say nothing of a very capable coaching staff.): https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/columnist/nate-davis/2024/06/29/nfl-division-winners-cowboys-ravens-chiefs/74238388007/
Ranking the top wide receivers by open-target rate from 2023 (1. KALIF RAYMOND, DETROIT LIONS
Total Targets Open Targets Open-Target Rate - Raymond gained separation on all but one of his 43 targets in 2023. He finished third on the team in target rate (22.2%) and receiving yards (489) while leading the way in yards after the catch (6.7). Raymond gained 20 first downs, had nine catches of 20-plus yards and generated a team-best 121.8 passer rating when targeted.): https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-ranking-top-wide-receivers-open-target-rate-separation-2023
Ranking tight ends: Kittle takes top spot (4. Sam LaPorta, Lions - LaPorta put together one of the best receiving seasons we've ever seen from a rookie tight end, emerging as one of Jared Goff's top targets and a perfect complement to Amon-Ra St. Brown as the Lions repeatedly found ways for them to access the middle of the field. He's a high-end athlete who can both stretch the field and create with the ball in his hands, and he found his way into a perfect system with an offensive coordinator who will put him in position to succeed. He might not cross the goal line 10 times again, but he'll make a significant impact.): https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ranking-top-20-tight-ends-for-2024-nfl-season-george-kittle-takes-top-spot-over-travis-kelce/
Every NFL team's potential breakout player in 2024 (Detroit Lions: WR Jameson Williams - The stage is set for “Jamo” to emerge as one of the NFL’s most explosive receivers in 2024. After an injury-delayed rookie season and a gambling suspension that inhibited Year 2, Williams enters his third season in Detroit free of distractions and ready to fly. He’s the No. 2 wideout now with the departure of vet Josh Reynolds, and his game-breaking speed makes Williams a great weapon. During spring sessions, Williams showed a much better grasp of route running and overall attention to detail. Williams might not be a high-volume receiver and the drop issue isn’t likely to abate, but he could still approach 1,000 receiving yards and threaten double-digit touchdowns. – Jeff Risdon, Lions Wire): https://touchdownwire.usatoday.com/lists/nfl-breakout-candidates-2024-bryce-young-jameson-williams/
Every NFL team's most important non-QB in 2024 (Detroit Lions: RT Penei Sewell - Sewell is the most dominant offensive tackle in the league not named Trent Williams. Sewell is only 23 and just signed a four-year, $112 million deal to prove his worth to the team.): https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/every-nfl-team-most-important-player-non-quarterback-2024-season/579041c88c73d542de270024
