The Detroit Lions were in a great spot to start the offseason.
They were the hottest and probably the best team to not make the playoffs. A win over the Green Bay Packers in the regular-season finale gave them momentum into the offseason. They had draft capital and plenty of cap space for free agency. It looked like an enticing situation for free agents.
But you need to land the right players. And it's not like Detroit has been a major destination for free agents.
Something is brewing with the Lions.
