5 Free Agents to Watch During Divisional Playoffs
The Lions are not participating in the postseason yet again, but that does not mean fans shouldn't pay attention.
This weekend will feature the eight best teams in the NFC and AFC, vying for an opportunity to advance to their respective championship games.
Here are five free agents for Lions fans to watch this weekend.
49ers Arik Armstead, EDGE
Produced a career-high in sacks this season with 10. Would be a welcome addition to the Lions defensive line that struggled mightily in 2019. At 26-years old, he is entering the prime of his career.
Texans Bradley Roby, CB
The Lions need to upgrade their secondary. He would provide veteran leadership if the Lions move on from Darius Slay and select a young cornerback in the draft. At 28, he may not be the Lions first choice but could be an option in free-agency.
Seahawks Jadeveon Clowney, Edge
Clowney continues to display stout running stopping abilities. He will be a hot commodity if he hits the open market. Displayed his skill-set in the Seahawks victory against the Eagles.
Ravens Matthew Judon, Edge
Judon would be a nice compliment to Trey Flowers. Produced 9.5 sacks this season. On film, has made improvements each season in the NFL.
Was the Ravens fifth-round selection in 2016 out of Grand Valley State University.
Vikings Everson Griffen, Edge
A veteran that could be added that has experience pressuring the quarterback consistently.
Has been consistently beating up the Lions offensive line during his time as a Viking.
He produced 24 quarterback hits and eight sacks during the 2019 season.
