2026 Detroit Lions Offseason Thread

The Lions do have a fascination with small receivers.

If i had on nitpick with this draft it would have been trading up for Moore when there were a few edges still on the board if he was hellbent on drafting an edge there. There was still quite a bit of talent left in the fourth. 

Other than that it will be interesting to see how Rolder and Moore fit in the defense since they are a bit different Anzelone and Davenport.

Also hoping that they have some cap space left for DJ Reader, I hate having to rely on Levi.

Hopefully they get it done with Campbell. This was the same plan and the same reasoning the Ravens tried with Linderbaum though that led to a bad team with lots of money backing up a Brinks truck.

Granted, a center’s relationship to a quarterback is not comparable to an off-ball linebacker.

UDFA to keep an eye on;

Can't say I'll lose any sleep over this list. Maybe Reader would have been nice depth, but they replaced him with youth which is fine. Maulet and Cunningham are maybe a little surprising just in terms of the depth at those positions, though they're both older guys who again could be replaced with youth.

I think people are underrating the pass rushing juice and run defense that Moore provides.
