If things go a certain way this season, the Lions will have to do a little more to address a lingering need.
Despite not playing five full games last season, Aidan Hutchinson led the Detroit Lions in sacks with 7.5 and second place ZaDarius Smith (four sacks) was a trade deadline acquisition. Smith may or may not be re-signed between now and Week 1, and the internal level of faith in Marcus Davenport as a second capable edge rusher is hard to fully get behind.
