Allen Park — The Detroit Lions have fleshed out their 90-man offseason roster following the draft and are beginning to progress through more on-field elements of the offseason program, starting with last weekend’s rookie minicamp.
And while we’re still approximately four months away from the regular season, we are able to get a much better sense for how the depth chart is shaking out. Acknowledging there are several spots that are up for grabs through offseason competition, here’s an early attempt at projecting the team’s 53-man roster.
Quarterback (2)
Starter: Matthew Stafford
Depth: Matt Cassel
Work to do: Jake Rudock
Thoughts: Stafford’s position on the depth chart is about as obvious as they come, but Detroit’s backup quarterback situation is a true coin flip.
