Terrion Arnold came out of shoulder surgery looking like a different player — and we mean that literally. The Lions DB is visibly bigger, and while the shoulder looks fully healed, the question is whether all that new size affects his speed and agility.
The Lions did everything right this offseason. They re-signed the offensive line, rebuilt the defense at every level, and still have one of the most disgusting offenses in football. The only question left is health.
For the first time since the Brad Holmes-Dan Campbell era began, the Detroit Lions roster has zero ties to the old regime. It’s all their guys now — and this team might be the most talented in the NFL.
Draft analyst Russell Brown joined the Heavyweights to dissect every Lions pick, and the verdict is clear: Brad Holmes did it again. From the plug-and-play right tackle Blake Miller to sleeper UDFA Eric Wright, Detroit added competition and talent across the board.
Detroit’s fifth-round pick Kendrick Law has the athleticism to make highlight reels — a 42-inch vertical, 21 bench press reps, and the ability to literally hurdle two defenders on one play. But Braylon Edwards’ film breakdown reveals the rookie receiver still needs serious work before he’s a legit WR4 option.
Amon-Ra St. Brown is all-in on what Brad Holmes built this offseason. The Lions star receiver called the Blake Miller pick exactly what Detroit needed and says this roster is stacked with talent.
Blake Miller isn’t just a solid first-round pick — he’s exactly what the Lions needed at right tackle. With 54 career starts at Clemson, elite hands, and the demeanor of a mauler, Detroit got a day one starter who slots in seamlessly.
Blake Miller once blocked a defender so hard on his final high school play that he drove the guy past the sideline, past the bench, and into the fence. That’s the demeanor Detroit just added to their offensive line.
Lions fans questioning the Blake Miller pick at 17 need to relax. NFL Stock Exchange co-host Trevor Sikkema joined the Woodward Heavyweights to break down why Miller’s nastiness and football IQ make him an instant starter, why Derrick Moore’s pass rush upside was worth the trade-up, and how Detroit stacked up against the rest of the NFC North.
Want to understand how impossible it is to make an NFL roster? Braylon Edwards dropped the receipts — and the numbers are staggering. Plus, the former Michigan legend gives his full review of the Michael Jackson biopic, and yes, it’s worth your time.
