Detroit Lions snubbed in Pro Football Focus CB rankings

The highly anticipated (#Sarcasm) cornerback rankings for the 2023 NFL season have been released by Pro Football Focus, and it’s not good news for the Detroit Lions. Despite making significant moves during the offseason to solidify their secondary, not a single player from the Lions made the cut among the top cornerbacks in the league, according to Pro Football Focus.

The Detroit Lions’ Defensive Reinforcements

During the offseason, the Lions were determined to address their cornerback position and brought in talented players to bolster their secondary. The signings of Cam Sutton, Emmanuel Moseley, and C.J. Gardner-Johnson were expected to inject much-needed talent and depth into the Lions’ defensive backfield. However, Pro Football Focus has seemingly overlooked their contributions and failed to include any of these players in their list of the top 32 cornerbacks in the NFL for the upcoming season.

A Surprising Omission

The exclusion of the Lions’ newly acquired cornerbacks raises eyebrows and sparks debate among fans and analysts alike. While rankings are subjective and can vary from one source to another, it’s hard to ignore the impact these players could potentially have on the Lions’ defense. Cam Sutton, known for his versatility and playmaking ability, was expected to provide a significant boost to the Lions’ secondary. Emmanuel Moseley, with his solid coverage skills, and C.J. Gardner-Johnson, renowned for his physicality and leadership, were anticipated to be key contributors to the Lions. However, Pro Football Focus seems to have a different perspective.

Seeking Validation on the Field

While the Pro Football Focus rankings may have disregarded the Lions’ cornerbacks, the true test lies on the field. The Lions’ defensive coordinator and coaching staff have placed their trust in these players, believing they have the talent and potential to make an impact. It will be interesting to see how these players respond to the perceived snub and use it as motivation to prove their worth on Sundays.

Embracing the Underdog Mentality

The Lions’ cornerbacks now find themselves in the position of being overlooked and underrated. This could fuel their determination to prove the critics wrong and exceed expectations. The absence of their names on the Pro Football Focus rankings could serve as a rallying cry for the Lions’ defense, igniting a collective desire to showcase their skills and emerge as a formidable unit.
