ALLEN PARK -- The Detroit Lions' preseason schedule has been finalized.

They'll kick off the exhibition slate on Aug. 10 in Oakland against the Raiders. Don't forget the coffee, though. That game, which pits a pair of new coaches against each other, will kick off at 10:30 p.m. Eastern.

The Lions return home the following week to host the New York Giants on Aug. 17. That game is set for 7 p.m.

For their dress rehearsal, the Lions will travel to Tampa Bay for an 8 p.m. game against the Buccaneers on Aug. 24. Then they wrap things up Aug. 30 with a game back home against the Cleveland Browns. That kick is set for 7 p.m.

The Bucs game will be carried nationally by CBS. The rest of the exhibitions will be carried in the Detroit area by Fox2.

Training camp watch: Teams are allowed to open training camp 15 days before their first preseason game. That means the Lions can open camp as early as July 26.

Welcome back, guys: The NFL says former Lions receiver Nate Burleson will announce the club's second-round pick, while former linebacker Stephen Tulloch will announce the third-round pick.
