Safety (4)
Glover Quin
James Ihedigbo
Isa Abdul-Quddus
Don Carey
Isa Abdul-Quddus is the clear number three safety and Don Carey’s roster spot shouldn’t be a guarantee. Sure, Carey is versatile, but in a “not really good at any one thing” sort of way. The Lions could give the spot to a younger guy, but with so many young players at cornerback, I see them opting to keep Carey on the roster in case he needs to step in at corner.
