Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab talk about the surprising news of Frank Ragnow retiring at the age of 29, thus leaving the Detroit Lions with two holes on their offensive line after Kevin Zeitler’s departure this offseason. With an already competitive NFC North, the guys wonder if the championship window for the Lions is already starting to close after missing out on a title last year.
Later on this episode of Inside Coverage, Fitz and Frank get into the trade rumor surrounding Jonnu Smith and the Pittsburgh Steelers and if Trey Hendrickson is really going to hold out with the Cincinnati Bengals in hopes of securing one last massive pay day.
Next, the guys get into who could be a good sleeper pick for the offensive rookie of the year, make a few predictions on team win totals that seem out of whack and take a look at who’s improved, stayed the same and gotten worse in the AFC North.
