Pro Football Focus has had a lot of good things to say about the Detroit Lions in the 2018 season, especially regarding their rookie class. Tracy Walker finished with a top-10 grade in coverage and an impressive 89.8 overall grade. Da’Shawn Hand made their All-Rookie team of 2018. Kerryon Johnson finished with the 13th-highest grade among all running backs.
However, it wasn’t great news for much of the rest of the team. The Lions secondary ranked 30th. Their front seven ranked 31st. Matthew Stafford was just 16th and the offensive line ranked 16th as well.
