Detroit Lions 53 Man Roster Prediction And Rumors
|
In looking at the preseason performances thus far, and there is still one game to play, I feel pretty confident that I can make a relatively accurate stab at the 53 man roster. I also want to mention a potential for this to change as Jason LaCanfora reported this morning that the Detroit Lions are making calls about trading for secondary help. While that is not all that surprising, it could impact the 53 if a trade is made before the regular season.

Ths is my best guess at this point. They could choose to keep less corners and less receivers but at this point, this is what I feel that the team will do.
