As we inch toward Detroit Lions training camp, it’s time to take inventory of the roster.
For the past six seasons, we’ve undertaken the exercise of ranking every single player on the team’s roster. This exercise not only provides us with a nice debate on how good each player is, but it also helps put the entire roster into perspective. For example, go back and look at our 2021 list. Players like Jamie Collins and Jack Fox cracked the top-10. Tyrell Williams—who would play one singular game for the Lions—was 17. On this year’s list, it was difficult to fit all of the proven talent into the top-20.
