Detroit Lions: Draft looms large after free agency flurry

The Detroit Lions have made a flurry of signings in the second phase of free agency. As of Thursday, the Lions have made five notable signings on defense, and another three on offense. All of them seem to lessen the need to draft certain positions.

However, these free agents should mostly be seen as temporary, rotational players. What do the Lions still need to do in the draft to solidify their weak areas? Let’s get into it.

The aforementioned signings do not include re-signing of some of our own players, tagging Ezekiel Ansah, or other in-house measures taken to improve the 2018-2019 Detroit Lions.
