2024 NFL secondary rankings: New York Jets, San Francisco 49ers take top spots (11. DETROIT LIONS: The Lions have completely rebuilt their secondary in the hope that the new pieces will help develop the group into a top unit. Safety Ifeatu Melifonwu was the ninth-highest-graded safety in 2023, while Brian Branch posted a 78.9 overall grade in his excellent rookie season. The team added cornerbacks Amik Robertson and Carlton Davis this offseason and picked up Terrion Arnold and Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in the first two rounds of the 2024 NFL Draft. The speed at which this unit can mesh together will determine its effectiveness in 2024.): https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-secondary-rankings-2024
Biggest needs for NFC teams ahead of training camp (Lions: Edge rusher. There is not a position on Detroit's roster that requires dire attention. Even at a position like edge rusher, the franchise has options opposite Aidan Hutchinson. It is strictly a matter of whether or not they can stay healthy. The Lions have heavily invested in Marcus Davenport and Josh Paschal so the ideal outcome is that either or both rise to the occasion in 2024. General manager Brad Holmes did an outstanding job turning cornerback into a position of strength this offseason by trading for Carlton Davis, drafting Terrion Arnold and Ennis Rakestraw Jr.. Those additions give the defense more freedom.): https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/biggest-needs-for-nfc-teams-ahead-of-training-camp-cowboys-running-backs-packers-linebackers-and-more/
Ranking top 20 interior linemen: New name at the top (Top 15 guards - 5. Kevin Zeitler (Detroit Lions): A Pro Bowler for the first time last season, the 34-year-old Zeitler is one of the best pass-blocking guards in the league. Zeitler allowed just two sacks and 15 pressures in 534 pass-blocking snaps with the Ravens last season, a pressure rate allowed per dropback of 2.8%. Zeitler joined the Lions this offseason, adding even more pass protection to an excellent offensive line (2.3% pressure rate allowed per dropback over the last three seasons). The Lions may have the best offensive line in the NFL with the addition of Zeitler. Top 5 centers - 2. Frank Ragnow (Lions): Ragnow is the only center not named Jason Kelce to make an All-Pro team last season, earning second-team All-Pro honors. Also making the Pro Bowl for the second consecutive season, Ragnow is a dominant run blocker who has allowed just two sacks over the past four seasons. Allowing just one sack and 18 pressures in 550 pass-blocking snaps last season (3.3% pressure rate allowed per dropback), Ragnow will be in competition with Humphrey fro the best center in football in 2024.): https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ranking-top-20-interior-linemen-in-2024-zack-martin-unseated-as-top-guard-jason-kelce-replaced-as-top-center/
