OTAs are over, and other than a mandatory minicamp coming up on June 6-8, the 2023 Detroit Lions will begin looking forward to training camp, which will begin in late July. Pro Football Focus recently projected the starting lineup for each and every NFL team, and they believe the 2023 Detroit Lions starting lineup will have eight starters that were not on the roster at the conclusion of the 2022 season.
Pro Football Focus projects 2023 Detroit Lions starting lineup
As you can see below, PFF projects the Lions starting lineup will include the following players who were not on the roster last season:
- David Montgomery
- Jahmyr Gibbs
- Sam LaPorta
- Jack Campbell
- Cam Sutton
- Emmanuel Moseley
- Chauncey Gardner-Jonnson
Here is what PFF believes the Lions starting lineup will look like in 2023. Note: Jameson Williams obviously will not start because he is suspended, and for some reason, they have 12 starters listed on defense.
Key Points
- PFF has projected the Lions’ starting lineup for 2023
- They believe the Lions will have 8 starters that were not on the roster in 2022
- Brad Holmes continues to build a formidable roster from top to bottom
Always Building
The Detroit Lions roster looks much different than it did when Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell took over the show, and that is a good thing. As the general manager, Holmes’ job is to build a solid roster from top to bottom, and he has done exactly that. The Lions are not afraid to add talent to compete for starting roster spots, and that is shown but the offseason moves that were made this year.
