With one preseason game in the books, it's time for another Detroit Lions 53-man roster prediction.
The Detroit Lions downed the New York Jets last week in their preseason opener in fairly dominant fashion. How did that game change the outlook of their 53-man roster? Here's my latest 53-man roster prediction (my picks to make the team are in bold and underlined):
QB Matthew Stafford QB Dan Orlovsky QB Kellen Moore QB Garrett Gilbert RB Joique Bell RB Ameer Abdullah RB Theo Riddick RB George Winn RB Zach Zenner RB Desmond Martin FB Michael Burton FB Emil Igwenagu WR Calvin Johnson WR Golden Tate WR Lance Moore WR Corey Fuller WR Jeremy Ross WR TJ Jones WR Ryan Broyles WR Greg Salas WR Andrew Peacock WR Vernon Johnson WR Jarred Haggins | TE Eric Ebron TE Brandon Pettigrew TE Joseph Fauria TE Jordan Thompson TE Casey Pierce TE Jacob Maxwell OT Riley Reiff OT LaAdrian Waddle OT Cornelius Lucas OT Michael Williams OT Corey Robinson OT Xavier Proctor OG Laken Tomlinson OG Larry Warford OG Manny Ramirez OG Torrian Wilson OG Al Bond C Travis Swanson C Taylor Boggs C Darren Keyton C Braxston Cave | DE Ezekiel Ansah DE Jason Jones DE Darryl Tapp DE Devin Taylor DE Larry Webster DE Corey Wootton DE Phillip Hunt DT Haloti Ngata DT Tyrunn Walker DT Caraun Reid DT Gabe Wright DT Jermelle Cudjo DT Roy Philon DT Kerry Hyder DT Jerel Worthy LB DeAndre Levy LB Stephen Tulloch LB Tahir Whitehead LB Kyle Van Noy LB Josh Bynes LB Travis Lewis LB Julian Stanford LB Brandon Copeland LB Kevin Snyder | CB Darius Slay CB Rashean Mathis CB Nevin Lawson CB Josh Wilson CB Quandre Diggs CB Alex Carter CB Crezdon Butler CB R. |
