With NFL free agency more or less over, it’s time to look at the teams that matter most to the Detroit Lions: their NFC North rivals. The Lions remain the division title holder for their second straight offseason, but the Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers, and Minnesota Vikings all made some splash signings this free agency.
But factoring in the players they lost, are they actually improved? I broke down all of the NFC North teams’ key adds, losses, biggest needs, and whether they are improved.
Note: These free agency adds/losses lists aren’t exhaustive.
