Second-round cornerback Ennis Rakestraw is sliding down the depth chart as Dan Campbell's lukewarm comments and the Lions' Trevon Diggs tryout signal trouble for a 2024 draft class that's been a complete disaster outside of Christian Mahogany.
Two Lions draft picks are running out of time at training camp while Devin White claims the starting linebacker job and Christian Mahogany locks down left guard at Allen Park.
The Lions need a backup plan at quarterback and the loaded 2027 draft class might force Brad Holmes to make an uncomfortable decision about life after Jared Goff.
The Lions' 2024 draft class looks like a complete whiff with only Ennis Rakestraw Jr. showing promise while the rest of the picks struggle or fall behind on the depth chart.
Brad Holmes stuck to his board and got his guy Blake Miller at 17, executed the plan on Derek Moore over Zion Young, and landed three of five top day three targets in a draft that fell perfectly for Detroit.
Holmes and Campbell didn't have a crystal ball on Terrion Arnold, and the cornerback options everyone says they missed never actually existed.
Diego Pavia does not fit the Lions' culture, physical profile, or offensive scheme despite calls to add the former Vanderbilt quarterback as depth behind Jared Goff.
The Lions should consider signing edge rusher Cam Gill, cornerback Kyu Blue Kelly, defensive tackle Dontay Corleone, or former Lion Ifeatu Melifonwu to add depth before training camp opens.
A bold case for five Detroit Lions training camp predictions including Ennis Rakestraw winning a starting job, Jackson Meeks succeeding at tight end, and Brian Branch returning for Week 1.
Four under-the-radar Lions could become training camp stars at Allen Park, from an undrafted quarterback drawing Brock Purdy comparisons to a small school linebacker who got paid like a priority free agent.
