Friday open thread: Besides offensive line, which Lions position group is currently the strongest?

If you were to poll various NFL executives and coaches from around the league on what the current strength of the Detroit Lions is, I would wager that close to all of them would say the offensive line. Taking a glance at the current depth chart, it’s easy to see why.

Everything begins with All-Pro center Frank Ragnow in the middle. His 2021 season ended early due to an injury that ended up requiring surgery, but when healthy, most would consider him to be a top two to three center in football. Veteran left tackle Taylor Decker has developed into a good player and a dependable leader for an otherwise young unit.
