EDTShareTweetShareShareTuesday open thread: Where do the Detroit Lions land in offseason power rankings?Photo by Norm Hall/Getty ImagesTuesday is notoriously power rankings day in the NFL universe, and while we’re far away from knowing much about the Detroit Lions and where they stand amongst the rest of the NFL, the only thing we can do this time of year is speculate. As for national pundits, there doesn’t seem to be much faith in Detroit for 2019. Though ESPN’s Mike Clay called them the most improved team this offseason, Pro Football Talk’s Peter King ranked them 27th in his power rankings this week. Of course White Austin Bryant Jersey , no one in Detroit is claiming this is a top-five team or anything. However, the sixth worst team seems a little harsh for a franchise that actually has a winning record over the last six seasons (49-47). So today’s Question of the Day is:Where do you think the Lions should rank in power rankings right now?My answer: I’ll admit, I’m drinking the Kool Aid a little bit after this offseason. While I have plenty of reservations about the offense and where it currently stands, I think the defensive improvement we’re going to see in 2019 is drastic. Another year under the system plus a slew of players with experience under Matt Patricia makes me feel this team could make a huge jump from the start, at least on that side of the ball.Therefore http://www.lionslockerroom.com/authentic-theo-riddick-jersey , I’m thinking this team deserves to be, at the very least, among the top half of the league. If I had to place them right now, I’d say somewhere in the 13-16 range seems appropriate. I simply can’t go any higher than that until I see some good results from an offense I’m very skeptical of. Your turn.

A panel of eight ESPN NFL experts offered their opinions on Monday as to the most improved team this offseason. One brave analyst, ESPN fantasy writer Mike Clay, chose the Detroit Lions.“General manager Bob Quinn has quietly done a nice job filling voids on Detroit’s roster over the past few months,” Clay wrote. “Those moves included revamping the tight end position with Jesse James and first-round pick T.J. Hockenson Sam Martin Jersey , upgrading with Trey Flowers on the edge of the front seven, overhauling cornerback behind Darius Slay by signing Rashaan Melvin and Justin Coleman, and adding Day 2 talent at linebacker (Jahlani Tavai) and safety (Will Harris).”That’s a pretty thorough recap of the Lions’ offseason strategy, and one we’re not really accustomed to seeing from a national outlet. The only major point Clay misses is the changing of offensive coordinators, which could honestly be viewed as a positive or negative. Obviously Womens Jake Rudock Jersey , it seemed it was time to move on from Jim Bob Cooter, but the transition to a new offense isn’t likely to click immediately. But Clay doesn’t stop there. He thinks the Lions have improved enough to potentially capture their first division title in decades.“Every year there is a team that goes from last to first in its division, and the Lions have a shot to be that team in a wide-open NFC North.”Well, I guess it’s no longer Detroit vs. Everybody.
