Detroit Lions Roster Projection 2.0

The Lions still have some significant position battles to sort out at certain spots, notably running back and defensive line. This projection presumes special teams is the tie-breaker, which may or may not be correct.

For a different take, check out Erik Schlitt’s roster stack at Detroit Jock City.

Offense

QB – 2

Matthew Stafford

Dan Orlovsky

Jake Rudock (PS)

The only real question here is whether the Lions keep two or three QBs on the 53-man roster. Because of the way the rest of the roster shakes out, and because the top two are veterans, I think it means sixth-round rookie Rudock is bound for the practice squad.
