20man: That's a good question. I think this will be a terrific year in free agency for edge rushers and defensive linemen because that's one area where this draft is pretty thin.
This is a rare year where there's no dominant pass rusher or defensive lineman at the top of the draft. No Chase Young or Bosa brother or Myles Garrett. In fact, NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah, someone I really respect in the talent evaluation business, doesn't list a defensive lineman on his initial Top 50 players in the draft until No. 13 with edge rusher Gregory Rousseau of Miami. Only three edge rushers and one defensive tackle make the Top 25 in Jeremiah's list.
I'm not saying the Lions will target these players, but J.J. Watt, Shaquil Barrett, Bud Dupree, Melvin Ingram, Kawann Short, Leonard Floyd, Leonard Williams, Yannick Ngakoue, Matthew Judon, Olivier Vernon, Denico Autry, Shelby Harris and other defensive linemen could be in hot demand during this free agency period.
One other name that could potentially interest Detroit is New Orleans safety Marcus Williams. New Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn coached the secondary for the Saints the last five seasons and knows Williams well. Detroit has some young talent, but also some question marks at safety.
