The Detroit Lions entered the 2021 NFL Draft on Thursday night with their biggest roster need likely being at the wide receiver position. That after the Lions allowed wideouts Kenny Golladay, Danny Amendola, Marvin Jones Jr., and Jamal Agnew all to leave the team this offseason.

In their place, new Lions general manager Brad Holmes assembled a group of free-agent wideouts that fit offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn’s scheme. Detroit signed veteran receivers Tyrell Williams, Breshad Perriman, Khalif Raymond, and Damion Ratley to fill that need.
