Pride Of Detroit Lions Podcast: What to know about new Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Cory Undlin. 38 minutes.
Our PODcast crew gives their thoughts on the hire after sitting on it for a few days.

We?ve all had a few days now to sit with the Detroit Lions? decision to hire former Eagles defensive backs coach Cory Undlin as their new defensive coordinator.

At first, the reaction was understandably disappointed. Matt Patricia got another one of ?his guys? and it looked like he simply got someone who will execute the game plan that will be set by the coaching staff already in place.

But is there a chance Undlin is something more than that? He only worked alongside Patricia once, and he?s seen a lot of different kind of defenses since then. It?s obviously Patricia?s defense, but could Undlin bring some different ideas and tactics to the defense? Is he the kind of person that may challenge him?

We tackle all of that in the first segment of our mid-week First Byte podcast. After that, we switch back to draft talk and give our thoughts on the new, hot name: Clemson linebacker Isaiah Simmons. Also, we introduce a new, recurring segment.
Check out all that and more on our minipodcast.

This week on the PODcast:
How have our opinion changed on Undlin from the minute the news dropped until now?

We go over Undlin?s resume, including the defensive minds he?s worked alongside.

Was getting a ?player?s coach? important to offset Patricia?s hard-nosed demeanor?

We all know the Eagles struggles in the secondary over the past two years, but there were some success stories.

Introducing our new tongue-in-cheek segment: TUA TALK!

Isaiah Simmons is getting a lot of hype, but does he fit in Detroit? If so, where.

Detroit Lions Podcast Episode 250 ? First Look At Free Agency, New DC, Senior Bowl, & More. 100 minutes.

In this episode of The Detroit Lions Podcast, Chris is once again joined by his old friend Case. Some might remember him fondly as the co-host of the show. Case comes back strong to make up for his absence by conducting our first dive into Free Agency. We call it, ?a deep dive into the shallow end with Case?. He does a good job walking through the positions and helping folks start their thinking about where the Lions might be heading. Of course Free Agency moves will help dictate what happens in the draft.

Detroit Lions Podcast Talks Defensive Coordinator and Quarterback Coach.
First, some really good news. It looks like Quarterback Coach Sean Ryan will remain with the team. This is great news. He?s a hot commodity in the NFL and sure to find a nice promotion next year. Having him in Detroit doing the things that make him so great is a huge benefit for the Lions.

The news that made more headlines is the hiring of new Defensive Coordinator, Cory Undlin from the Eagles. Responses have been all over the board and speculation has been widespread about what it means. We take a look at some data and wind up with a more measured response to the hire. We follow up with some great social media posts (Reddit and Twitter) that we wanted to use to showcase the great stuff that people are putting together. Cory Undlin has a lot to offer and could wind up being a masterful choice. My expectation is that we will end up feeling as good about the Cory Undlin hire as we do about Darrell Bevell.

We then go into the Senior Bowl and start sharing some of the great stuff we?ll have for you from Mobile. Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel and enable notifications to see some of the best interviews and coverage you?ll see all week. We?re working hard to provide the best Lions coverage you?ll get from the Senior Bowl. Buckle up!
