Right now, the Detroit Lions have an abundance of skill on both sides of the ball.
If they can hold together the core, they should be very good for years to come.
Because of this, their top aim for this summer is officially to extend the contract of standout wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown.
According to Cam Marino, they’re about to sign him to a three-year contract costing about $25 million annually, which sounds like a good deal for a player of his level.
As a player, St. Brown has previously proven he is capable of playing in the Pro Bowl.
Despite the rise of rookie tight end Sam LaPorta and wide receiver Jameson Williams, he has been Jared Goff’s preferred target in the passing game.
Under Dan Campbell, the Lions have stacked the talent rather nicely.

They defeated the Los Angeles Rams and Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the postseason, demonstrating that their regular-season success was no accident. In the NFC Championship Game, they even had a double-digit lead over the San Francisco 49ers.
It is highly anticipated that they will rank among the top teams for many years to come. Like his players, Campbell will improve as a coach with more coaching experience.
Regarding St. Brown, he just finished recording career-highs in numerous statistical categories and was selected for the first All-Pro team, thus he has earned every cent of the next deal.
