Our own Zac Snyder has been doing an in-depth look the Detroit Lions 2013 position by position this offseason, and today we expand on that. Each chart has info based on Pro Football Focus’ grading system. Let’s start with an overall look at the Detroit Lions roster.

Detroit Lions Roster: Overall



The Detroit Lions roster has a total of 17 positive grade players currently on the roster, but they also have 15 players that didn’t play a single snap for the team on offense or defense last season. Some of these players are in line for starting or backup positions next season.

What you’ll notice as you go through the Detroit Lions roster is that they have some units that are really strong and some units that have very little depth. The goal of this is to give you a quick overall look at where the Detroit Lions roster stands prior to free agency–starting with the offense.
