Detroit Lions: Most glaring need is now on offense, not defense

The Detroit Lions have made numerous efforts to fill the voids on the defensive side of the ball this free agency. They have signed linebackers Jamie Collins and Reggie Ragland, they’ve inked cornerback Desmond Trufant to a multi-year deal, and they managed to swing a trade for safety Duron Harmon for a swap of day three picks with the New England Patriots.

Now, there are still places on defense that need to be improved. The Lions should not hesitate to spend their top-five pick on either Ohio State star Chase Young or his teammate Jeffrey Okudah.
