Detroit Lions climb in ‘Post-free agency’ power rankings

As we know, the Detroit Lions backed their way into the NFL Playoffs this past season after dropping their final three games. Sure, Detroit made the playoffs, but any Lions fan who knows what they are talking about would admit there are holes that need to be filled if they want to get back this coming season.

So far in free agency, Lions GM Bob Quinn has made some moves that should improve the team moving forward. Specifically, he improved the offensive line by adding Rick Wagner and T.J. Lang.

On Monday, ESPN released their “Post-free agency” power rankings and the Lions are making some headway, coming in at No. 12.
