Detroit Lions Projected 53 Man Roster

Week 1 of the preseason schedule is complete. It was a pretty lackluster all around performance, making it tough to get reads on some Detroit Lions players battling for roster spots. Kamp's Korner is going to give you our 53 man roster projection with a quick note after each position.

Jared Goff

Hendon Hooker

After preseason game 1, I can't see Nate Sudfield being rostered as a backup NFL QB after the game against the Giants.

David Montgomery

Jahmyr Gibbs

Greg Reynolds

Sione Vaki

Will the Lions find room for Jermar Jefferson? I don't think so. Vaki is too versatile to cut and Reynolds has proven reliable.

Amon-Ra St. Brown

Jameson Williams

Khalif Raymond

Daurice Fountain

Isaiah Williams

Maurice Williams

Fountain and Williams/Williams could easily end up being Antione Green and Donovan Peoples-Jones. It's still up in the air after Raymond, and even he could be passed up at the WR3. Someone has to go get it.

Sam LaPorta

Brock Wright

James Mitchell

Shane Zylstra has to block better than he did against the Giants. He turns that around and I think he steps in for Mitchell.

Penei Sewell

Taylor Decker

Graham Glasgow

Kevin Zeitler

Frank Ragnow

Kayode Awosika

Dan Skipper

Colby Sorsdal

Giovanni Manu

Ike Boettger

Christian Mahogany and his non-football illness are a mystery.

EDGE

Aidan Hutchinson

Marcus Davenport

James Houston

Josh Paschal

Nate Lynn

The Pat O'Connor signing was interesting.

Alim McNeil

DJ Reader

Mekhi Wingo

Brodric Martin

Levi Onwezurike

Will they carry 6 with Kyle Peko?

Alex Anzalone

Jack Campbell

Derrick Barnes

Malcom Rodriguez

Jalen Reeves-Maybin

Dan Niemann

I didn't want to keep 6 LB's, but I really like Niemann against the Giants.

Carlton Davis

Terrion Arbold

Ennis Rakestraw

Amir Robertson

Kindle Vildor

This looks like a classic case of turning a weakness into a strength. Khalil Dorsey and Steven Gilmore still have chance to prove themselves.

Brian Branch

Kerby Joseph

Ifeatu Melifonwu

Brandon Joseph

It will be an interesting battle between Joseph, CJ Moore and Morice Norris.

SPEC

Kicker - Jake Bates

Punter - Jack Fox

LS - Scott Daly

Could Hogan Hatten getting reps at LB in preseason game 1 give him the upper hand at LS?
