Detroit Lions coaches excited about improved talent at LB: 'It's going to be a bloodbath'

As the Detroit Lions began their Organized Team Activities this week, the spirit seemed different, at least according to head coach Dan Campbell and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn.

Why? Both cited the new sense of "competition" within the team's Allen Park headquarters Thursday.

"I will tell you this, you talk about competition in the room, just take a look at that (linebacker) room," Glenn said. "That's the one thing that everybody keeps talking about, saying, 'We should draft a linebacker.' Well, we got some pretty damn good ones."
