The Detroit Lions, as well as the rest of the NFL, have sifted through the first wave of free agency. While there is still plenty of work to be done, the early returns should be considered favorable.
Unfortunately, we are talking about the Lions and usually ‘favorable’ doesn’t go with Detroit’s football franchise which hasn’t gotten it right for over 60 years. ‘Favorable’ often turns into ‘disaster’ when we’re talking Motor City football.
Yet on paper, it wasn’t a bad start, but we are talking about the Lions. Last year’s offseason moves looked good until the much anticipated defensive dominance crashed, burned, and self-destructed.
