America's international allies join our cause… by writing a strongly worded letter; the America-hating right and Left unite to undermine President Trump yet again; and California is spending all of its money on hospice fraud and mountain lion bridges.

Mike asks if Kevin Zeitler or Joey Bosa would help improve the Lions going into the 2026 season.

David joined for another update on the latest NCAA Tournament scores/results. Then, Mike offered a couple of Lions free agent targets before they went over some March Madness games to watch later on in the day.

The Detroit Lions kept stacking useful pieces. On this Detroit Lions Podcast, Jeff Risdon, Chris, and Michael Grey broke down three new additions, all on one-year deals. Edge DJ Wonnum, wide receiver Greg Dortch, and linebacker Raymond Clark arrived as targeted fits. Another signing could be coming soon. New arrivals and a one-year plan The front office is leaning into short-term, role-specific help. Each deal is a fill-in. The message is clear. Add competitive depth without blocking long-term answers. The hosts also noted movement on another potential addition, with word that another Jones could be in play. The expectation is more action today. Edge plan: DJ Wonnum and the Paschal template Wonnum checks the Lions' NFL edge profile. Physical style. Power to speed. Edge setter. He plays the run on the way to the quarterback better than he rushes the passer. That should sound familiar. Think the role carved out for Josh Paschal. Early in his career, this type has handled c gap and b gap snaps and bumped outside as needed. The vision is obvious. Wonnum can work five tech, set sturdy edges, and finish when opportunities come. He has starting experience and some sack production. He fits as a part-time player, likely edge three or edge four, depending on how the rest of the room shakes out. The depth chart mentions tied to this move matter too. Makai Wingo's best spot is still in question. Ahmed Hassanein's development is a variable. Levi Anserrique Reed has played outside and can handle five tech. The piece today is about defined jobs. Wonnum gives them one. Slot and return game: Greg Dortch's fit with Petzing Dortch brings juice to the slot and special teams. He is five-foot-seven-ish, around a buck eighty, and a proven return specialist from the Arizona Cardinals. He worked with Drew Petzing and spoke at length about that trust in his introductory Zoom. He talked about love of football again and again, and his energy jumped off the screen. Dortch has bounced around, was advised at one point to consider the CFL, then the Cardinals gave him a shot. He ran with it. He is very sure handed, with a high catch rate over recent years. In Detroit, he profiles as a quick separator and secure outlet who can flip field position in the return game. Linebacker depth and what comes next Raymond Clark adds competition at linebacker. Another one-year, role-focused piece. Special teams and sub-package snaps are in play. The Lions are not done. The hosts repeated that. Expect another signing, with indications that talks on another Jones are moving. This roster building approach matches the recent surge of part-time, short-term additions. It fits the moment. Add the right tools. Keep flexibility. Let camp sort the rest. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #djwonnum #gregdortch #damoneclark #nflfreeagency Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The guys opened the second hour shifting their sights to the Lions after they signed DE D.J. Wonnum to a 1-year, $6 million contract. They asked whether this is how Brad Holmes will always operate.

Valenti and Rico kicked things off this Wednesday afternoon with a conversation about people's plans for tomorrow, including whether they might watch the NCAA Tournament. They touched on the Lions in the second hour, and their most recent underwhelming signing, before returning to the March Madness talk for the remainder of the show

Mike and Rico take your Lions calls.

Valenti and Rico break down the Lions signing DE D.J. Wonnum to a 1-year deal.

A backfield pivot reshapes Detroit's plan Scott Bischoff and Russell Brown returned to the Detroit Lions Podcast after a chaotic week of 80 mile per hour winds and the first surge of NFL free agency. Their focus was Detroit's backfield. The Lions signed Isaiah Pacheco on a one year deal after agreeing to trade David Montgomery to the Houston Texans. Early last week, outside of Cade Mays and Pacheco, the board felt quiet. That pause raised the question of a defense heavy draft with nine or ten picks. By midweek, the tone changed. Detroit looked younger, healthier, and more intentional on both sides of the ball. How Isaiah Pacheco fits Detroit's run game Pacheco's usage in Kansas City lived inside a unique ecosystem. The offense followed Patrick Mahomes, often playing out of shotgun with inside zone and outside zone as staples. Timing was quick. Reads could get muddy. The result was a frenetic style. At times he pressed so hard he ran into his own linemen. Vision looked limited on that tape. Detroit projects something different. With Jared Goff under center, the back has clearer landmarks and defined intent. The hosts expect better angles, more counter, and the pin and pull concepts that Drew Petzing loves. That structure could slow Pacheco's clock and clean up his decisions. He still brings size and a physical edge. The price is light, roughly one to one and a half million dollars, all guaranteed for one season. It is a classic change of pace add that does not block a draft pick in April. Montgomery's exit and the draft signal Moving Montgomery and renting Pacheco for a year points to a draft add. The board from round four through round six makes sense, and the Lions hold multiple picks in that range. Names surfaced as possibilities, including Nicholas Singleton, Cochran Allen, and Jahmari Taylor. Internal options exist too. Jacob Sailors is in the room. Vaki profiles as a special teams piece more than a true back. None of that keeps Detroit from targeting a runner who complements Pacheco now and carries a larger load later. Clock to the 2026 NFL Draft As of this Wednesday, the 2026 NFL Draft sits 36 days away. Early inactivity on defense sparked talk of spending most of the capital on that side of the ball. The recent moves eased some of that urgency. The Detroit Lions can pair a tough runner with under center structure, add a mid round back, and let the board dictate the rest. In a week that started slow, the plan sharpened. The NFL hinges on fit and timing. Detroit just gave itself both in the backfield. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #isaiahpachecooneyeardeal #davidmontgomerytotexans #jaredgoffundercenter #pinandpullconcepts #insidezoneruns #outsidezoneruns #changeofpaceback #midroundrunningbacktarget #roundfourthroughroundsix #nicholassingleton Learn more about your ad choices.

He's also a good guy to sit next to at the hockey games. Segment 1 How often do you get a haircut? Catching up on the World Baseball Classic, U.S. and Dominican Republic go down to the wire. Did the tournament structure itself for a U.S. vs Japan final? Anyways, Michigan dominated Notre Dame 6-1 in the Big Ten quarterfinals. A Notre Dame player runs into Ivankovic again, leading to a fight and a game misconduct. Credit Michigan for standing up for their goalie. Overall this game wasn't really close.   Segment 2 Michigan beats Penn State 5-2 to make it to the Big Ten championship game. Penn State was aggressive early but Michigan settled in. Michigan had a lot of penalties but the power play held strong, but eventually they had a lengthy 5-on-3 that gave a 4-2 lead. T.J. Hughes sealed the game after Michigan's goaltender almost scored an empty netter on himself. That goal might've been Hughes' last goal at Yost, many of the seniors stuck around on the ice late. Time to wrap up the season of our old friends. WMU will get a 1-seed but lost to Denver in their conference final. Still some conference tournament games left, let's talk NCAA tournament scenarios.   MUSIC NHL on ESPN Theme "Spark" -- Fitz and the Tantrums Ice Hockey (NES) theme

Dr. Rainer Zitelmann — historian, author, and one of the world's leading experts on Hitler and National Socialism — joins Lou to discuss something that would be unthinkable in the United States: he's currently under criminal investigation in Germany for retweeting a meme comparing Putin to Hitler. Zitelmann, who wrote his doctoral dissertation on Hitler and has spent decades studying National Socialism, shared a post drawing a parallel between Hitler's promises before invading Czechoslovakia and Putin's promises before invading Ukraine. The result? A letter from the Berlin police and thousands of dollars in legal fees — with potentially more to come. They dig into Germany's Section 86a speech laws, how legislation designed to stop neo-Nazis is now being used against libertarians, historians, and center-right journalists, the government-funded neighbor-reporting hotlines that echo the Stasi, why cancel culture has escalated into legal repression across Europe, and what it means for free speech when even the people who know the history best can't reference it. They also get into Rainer's new book New Space Capitalism (Skyhorse Publishing) — the case for private property rights in space, how SpaceX has done what 50 years of government programs couldn't, and why capitalism is the only system that has ever actually worked, on Earth or anywhere else.  Pre-order New Space Capitalism: Search "New Space Capitalism" on Amazon  Follow Rainer: RainerZitelmann.com  Lou's book: That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore: On the Death and Rebirth of Comedy https://amzn.to/3VhFa1r  Watch Lou's sketch comedy on Red Coral Universe: https://redcoraluniverse.com/en/serie...  XX-XY Athletics — 20% off with code LOU20: https://www.xx-xyathletics.com/?sca_r...  Substack: www.substack.com/@louperez  Newsletter: www.TheLouPerez.com  Listen: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/.../the-lo...

Montgomery's payday and the Lions backfield reality The Detroit Lions entered a quiet weekend, but one move from a former starter framed where the backfield stands. David Montgomery reached a two-year, $16.5 million deal with Houston, with $10 million guaranteed. His remaining guarantees in Detroit were under $5 million. He wanted more security and a bigger role. He found both. The calculus in Detroit changed because Jamir Gibbs is a superstar. Montgomery is 28. This is likely his last big contract. The money places him among the top running back salaries until a Gibbs extension, which is expected this offseason. He praised his time in Detroit and also celebrated the opportunity in Houston. The takeaway: the market confirmed why his role in Detroit was narrowing. Trenches in focus: tackle urgency and draft plan After Friday's additions of Tyler Conklin and Roger McCreery, the Lions stood pat. The line conversation did not. There is hope that Juice Scruggs can emerge as the top reserve interior offensive lineman. That remains a competition. At tackle, a recent signing in the $5 million range sits between backup and starter money. If the season kicked today, he would be the starting left tackle. That is a concern. Coaching and scheme could help, especially after a rough Miami stint, but the need remains. Expect an offensive tackle with one of the first two draft picks. The other early target profiles as an edge rusher. Safety is possible as well. That board reflects both value and how the depth chart looks today. Slot, safety, and Rakestraw's health update McCreery projects in the slot. Another newcomer, "Izzy," fits the super sub role across the defensive backfield that the staff values. Those pieces ease the urgency at outside corner. The belief here is that corner is not the priority early, with the top group for 2025 and 2026 effectively on the roster. Safety stays in play because of usage versatility. Over the weekend, Rakestraw addressed his status directly on Instagram: fully healthy, and healthy since December. That clarity matters for how the secondary snaps could stack when camp opens. Around the NFL and what's next The NFL stayed mostly quiet, but one headline popped: the Chiefs acquired Justin Fields for a sixth-round pick. The Lions were not involved. Detroit's focus shifts to the pro day circuit over the next couple weeks. The staff will be out in force. Eyes on offensive tackle and edge align with needs and draft positioning. If a Lions player or coach steps in front of a camera during the tour, you will hear it here. For now, Friday's roster adds stand, Montgomery has his guaranteed money in Houston, and the draft board points straight at the trenches. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #ennisrakestraw #davidmontgomery #masonreiger #larryborom #nflfreeagency Learn more about your ad choices.

Costa & Jansen get this week's Best Of Lions started with a discussion about their patience with Brad Holmes as he continues to stay passive in free agency. Then, Gator & Marc Ryan wondered if the Lions should be favored to win the NFC North, Valenti & Rico offered a few "B-Team" players the team could sign, and much more!

Detroit adds experience at tight end and in the slot The Detroit Lions moved quickly in NFL free agency, signing tight end Conklin and slot corner Roger McCreery. The Detroit Lions Podcast digs into why both add immediate, specific value. Contract terms were not disclosed. The expectation is short deals, likely one year. Conklin arrives as a known quantity. He entered the league in the 2017 draft out of Central Michigan. He started with the Vikings, then found a bigger receiving role with the Jets, and most recently had a brief, bumpy stop with the Chargers. McCreery comes from the 2022 draft class and profiles cleanly as a starting-caliber slot defender. Conklin's resume, role, and Petzing connection Conklin earned his way onto the field in Minnesota because he blocked well. That came even as his targets and catches climbed later. From 2021 through 2023 he recorded 87 targets each season and caught at least 58 passes annually. He averaged around 10 yards per catch. He was not a consistent red zone threat, outside of his final season in New York. He started regularly for the Jets on some uneven teams. The Chargers stint did not click. Drops and unreliable blocking put him in Jim Harbaugh's doghouse. That is a hard place to escape. Still, the overall profile is stable. He is an eight-year veteran with close to 300 career receptions and functional in-line work. Drew Petzing, the Lions' new offensive coordinator, overlapped with Conklin early in Minnesota. The years have passed, but that familiarity matters for role clarity. The early view: Conklin slots as tight end three. He can push Brock Wright for tight end two. If injuries hit Brock Wright or Sam LaPorta, Conklin can elevate. Proven depth beats a late flier or an untested option. McCreery's slot chops and production McCreery brings a steady slot presence. He plays the ball well. He understands route concepts. He has quickness and can attack the catch point when needed. Power is not his calling card, but the instincts and movement skills are there. The production backs it up. He started right away and posted 84 tackles as a rookie, then 86 the next season. In 2024 he started most of the time, appearing in 15 games with 50 tackles. Ball production dipped last season, but the reliability in the slot remained his anchor trait. Depth, fit, and next steps These moves raise the floor. Conklin gives the Detroit Lions a trustworthy safety net behind Sam LaPorta and Brock Wright. McCreery tightens the middle of the defense with a proven slot corner. Both signings fit defined roles and reduce risk across a long NFL season. That is smart roster building for a team with big plans. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #tylerconklin #rogermccreary #nflfreeagency #2026freeagency #lionsrostermoves Learn more about your ad choices.

The guys hear from the people, who let them know if they agree with Stoney or TJ Lang more about the Lions.

Which way are the Lions trying to go (or not go) with their offseason plan?

Multiple conversations were had during this packed segment.

Valenti and Stoney (in for Rico) kicked off the final show of the week with their thoughts on yet another disappointing performance from the Red Wings last night. They dove into a question about the Lions' plans in the second hour before covering a few miscellaneous topics in the third hour. Then, they wrapped up the show discussing the most overrated things in Detroit in honor of 313 day.

Stoney and TJ Lang (via a conversation with Valenti) offered two different hypotheses as to the plan (or lack thereof) the Lions are executing this offseason.

Quiet Detroit Day, Isian Finalized Detroit Day arrived with a hush. On March 13, the Detroit Lions made Christian Isian's signing official and left everything else on hold. He is scheduled to speak with the media today, time unspecified. The rest of the NFL news cycle stayed still around Allen Park. That silence is wearing on fans. It showed up in the Detroit Lions Podcast inbox and chat. So today's focus shifted to what remains on the market at positions of need, starting with edge. Edge Options: Veterans With Caveats The top of the remaining edge group carries risk. Joey Bosa headlines it on name value, but injuries have changed his game. At 31, he is no longer the same pass rusher. The question becomes price and reliability. That same worry hangs over Marcus Davenport. The plea was clear: do not run that experiment back. If the Lions wanted an older, banged-up rotational piece, they could have kept Al-Quadin Muhammad. They did not. He's in Tampa, with an introduction there today. Other names bring clearer roles. Calais Campbell is 39, durable, and still a quality fit for a one-year stopgap. That makes sense at the right number. Jadeveon Clowney brings steadiness but not quick pressure. The Lions need faster wins off the edge. That has never been Clowney's calling card. Von Miller sits at the very end of a great career. Cam Jordan keeps surfacing in the top tier of lists, and a single season of his savvy feels attractive if the price cooperates. None of these require a rush. Veterans like this can wait out the market. Draft Signals and Stopgap Talk There is still a glaring need opposite Aidan Hutchinson. The current pile of available edges looks more like placeholders than needle-movers. That points the Detroit Lions toward the draft. One of the first two picks at edge makes sense. It does not mean free agency is over at the position. It means the team can pair a rookie with a one-year veteran who understands multiple systems and can play a role on day one. Recent depth stories reinforce the urgency. The Josh Paschal experiment never truly took off because of injuries. John Kaminski flashed during a healthy stretch, then faded when he got hurt. Levi is a question until proven otherwise. Hope is not a plan. Quick pressure is. The Detroit Lions Podcast kept circling that need. If the front office is slow-playing the board, waiting for veteran prices to soften, the logic tracks. Finalizing Christian Isian closed one file. The edge file stays open, with the draft looming as the real solution and a short-term stopgap still in play. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #christianisian #aidanhutchinson #joeybosa #jadeveonclowney #calaiscampbell #camjordan #vonmiller #al-quadinmuhammad #marcusdavenport #joshpaschal #johnkaminski #levi #edgerusher #quickpressure #oneyearstopgap Learn more about your ad choices.

New pivot and CB3 clarity The Detroit Lions Podcast carved up a busy slice of NFL free agency. The team introduced new signings to the media, including Cade Niese and Isaiah Pacheco. The headliner is a new starting center on a three-year, $25 million deal with $14 million guaranteed. Cade Meeks steps into the middle and replaces Glasgow at center. Personality-wise, he mirrors Frank Ragnow. That should play well in Detroit. On the outside, Rock returns on a one-year, $4 million contract. He slots as the number three outside corner. That price fits the role. He played well last season. Amik moved on and got paid by Washington. Slot grit: Christian Isian's fit Detroit moved to fill the slot with Christian Isian from Tampa Bay. He is undersized at around 5-foot-9 but scrappy. He tackles. He defends the run. Coverage results have been mixed. Tampa Bay let him go and replaced him with last year's third-round pick. Isian offers positional flexibility, but the slot is his best home. The Lions learned with Amik that fit matters. Keep him where he wins. Expect a feisty presence inside and a tone-setter on run downs. Tackle depth and draft signals Larry Borom arrives on a one-year, $5 million deal. He has NFL starts at tackle and guard. He will compete with Giovanni Manu to be the number three tackle. The current mix with Penei Sewell, Borom, Manu, and maybe Myles Frasier does not feel final. Depth remains a need. The draft hints are clear. Edge rusher stands out as the top priority. Edge number two probably is not on this roster yet. Tackle also profiles as an early target. The sequencing could be edge in the first round and tackle in the second. Free agency has set that board. CB room churn and a miss in the market The cornerback room turned over again. Rock is back at CB3. Amik is out after landing a bigger deal elsewhere. The slot flips to Isian. One notable miss hit the market ticker. Muhammad signed with the Buccaneers. That stings for a team still searching for pass-rush help. The best remaining free agent edge option is a looming question. For now, Detroit's free agency added a center, a slot fighter, and versatile line depth. The edge solution likely comes next, and the draft is the cleanest path. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #cademays #amikrobertson #larryborom #nflfreeagency #bradholmes #christianizien Learn more about your ad choices.
