Who are the Detroit Lions? They embarrassed him a week ago against the Panthers, but a week later against the Bears he was overwhelmed. Detroit has won seven of his last nine games, and it could come down to a matchup against Green Bay in Week 18.
The Lions should hope to beat the Packers and the Seahawks somehow drop the game against the Rams. But like the Lions’ season, whatever happens from a playoff standpoint, their franchise’s direction looks set to skyrocket. He has two picks, including one in the top ten in the round.

Detroit rebounded spectacularly and easily disposed of the Chicago Bears. With his one game remaining, head coach Dan Campbell maximized his potential for one of the youngest rosters in the NFL.
While unlikely to make the playoffs this season, it’s quite possible the team will be in contention for the division title over the next few seasons.
