Grueling Truth

● By Samuel Teets
The Detroit Lions committed to a long-term rebuild this offseason when they traded Matthew Stafford to Los Angeles and hired Dan Campbell as head coach. No one expects the Lions to make much noise this year, and Detroit faces its fourth consecutive losing season. It’s all part of the franchise’s grand plan to rebuild through future drafts. Campbell’s goal this offseason is to add players that can help Detroit win three or four years down the road. With four picks in the top 101 selections, the Lions could add immediate starters and some developmental pieces. However, even an elite class of rookies won’t help Jared Goff drag this talent-deprived Detroit roster to more than five wins.
