15 extension candidates for the 2026 NFL offseason (RB Jahmyr Gibbs, Detroit Lions: As has become well-documented, Robinson isn’t the only superstar rusher to come out of the 2023 class. Gibbs has performed at nearly as dynamic a level for the Lions, sitting fifth in PFF rushing grade (92.0) and fourth in missed tackles forced (175) since his debut. Further, Gibbs has generated at least 27 explosive carries in each of those years, demonstrating his game-breaking ability. The Lions and Falcons have their respective rushers on the fifth-year option for 2026, but each will try to finalize extensions first. Considering Jeremiyah Love being taken third overall by the Cardinals as well as Travis Etienne Jr. and Kenneth Walker III both signing deals worth over $43 million, it figures to be a banner offseason for the position. LB Jack Campbell, Detroit Lions: Campbell recently had his fifth-year option declined, but that was due to its inordinate cost for off-ball linebackers rather than the quality of his play. The former Iowa standout rebounded from a poor rookie year to become one of the best linebackers in the NFL, as his 90.2 overall PFF grade led all qualifiers last year. Likewise, Campbell’s 0.36 WAR is the most among his peers since 2024. Off-ball linebacker contracts can be tricky due to the volatile nature of the position, but Campbell feels worthy of being close to the top of the market. Detroit will likely make a push to extend the 25-year-old, avoiding seeing him test free agency in the offseason.): https://www.pff.com/news/15-extension-candidates-for-the-2026-nfl-offseason
2026 NFL Draft: Ten rookies in position to succeed in Year 1 and beyond (2. Blake Miller: The Lions clearly see Miller, who has 54 college starts to his name, as a pro-ready prospect -- which is great, because they have a Miller-ready offensive line. The unit wasn't the only thing that went sideways for Detroit in 2025, but fixing it could be the most efficient way to level the Lions back into the NFC's upper class. In 2025, Detroit registered the second-highest QB pressure rate (34.3%) of Dan Campbell's tenure, with a steep drop in EPA per dropback from 2024 (0.25) to '25 (0.12). As for the ground game, a slip in average rushing yards before contact (1.8 to 1.5) corresponded with a reduction in EPA per carry (from 0.04 to -0.06). If Campbell and Co. are going to make sure last season goes down as a blip in the Jared Goff era, they need someone to help seal up the QB's protection and get the run game rolling again as they move on from Frank Ragnow and Taylor Decker. If Miller's got the goods, he'll be leaned on to keep the Lions' current competitive window extended for as long as possible.): https://www.nfl.com/news/2026-nfl-draft-ten-rookies-in-position-to-succeed-in-year-1-and-beyond
Ranking the Best NFL Draft Classes From Best to Worst: Grades & Predictions (11. Detroit Lions - We loved the Detroit Lions' opening two selections. Offensive tackle Blake Miller and EDGE Derrick Moore should immediately solve problems in the lineup. This final grade would probably be stronger if the Lions had a third-round pick. Anyhow, getting cornerback Keith Abney II in the fifth round helped make up for it.
