Team Needs:
Two Defensive Tackles: The Lions had one of the league's worst pass defenses, but the primary reason for this was a lack of pressure they put on opposing quarterbacks. There's a big void in the interior of the defensive line, where Detroit never replaced Ndamukong Suh and Nick Fairley. This is a position the Lions almost have to spend an early pick on in the 2017 NFL Draft. Signed Akeem Spence and Jordan Hill
Three Linebackers: Detroit's linebacking corps was pretty poor outside of DeAndre Levy this season, and things will only get worse with Josh Bynes hitting free agency. The front office will need to find two new players to join Levy. Update: Levy was released. Signed Nick Bellore and Paul Worrilow
Right Tackle: Riley Reiff is an impending free agent, so the Lions will have to find a new bookend blocker across from Taylor Decker if he leaves for the open market. Signed Ricky Wagner Cornerback Depth: The Lions have two terrific cornerbacks in Darius Slay and Nevin Lawson, but there's very little behind the two. Signed D.J. Hayden
Defensive End Depth: More depth problems for the Lions. They need to find a pass-rusher to play behind Ziggy Ansah and Kerry Hyder. Signed Cornelius Washington
Running Back: Ameer Abdullah has been bothered by injuries in both of his NFL seasons thus far. The Lions can't rely on him. Zach Zenner has been a solid backup, but he shouldn't be an every-down back either, and neither should Theo Riddick.
Tight End: Detroit needs to be thinking of moving on from Eric Ebron, who dropped countless passes - including some in the playoffs - this past season. Ebron has been a colossal bust.
Backup Quarterback: Dan Orlovsky is heading into free agency, but the Lions needed a new reserve signal-caller anyway.
