Updated predictions for Lions’ 53-man roster

Allen Park – The third exhibition game is in the books and the Detroit Lions must now trim the roster to 75 players by 4 p.m. Tuesday. The team will host the Buffalo Bills at Ford Field Thursday to close out the exhibition slate and then must submit their final roster to the league on Saturday.

With some new information coming out of the game in Baltimore, here’s my revised projection for the Lions’ 53-man roster.

QUARTERBACKS (3)

In: Matthew Stafford, Dan Orlovsky, Jake Rudock

Out: None

Analysis: Rudock didn’t complete a pass (0-6) against the Ravens in limited work, but he was also victimized by a couple of drops from his receivers.
