If the Philadelphia Eagles are looking for any potential free agents from the Detroit Lions in 2020, a few key names immediately come to mind.

Would the Philadelphia Eagles benefit from considering a few potential free agents on the Detroit Lions during the 2020 offseason?

When taking into consideration that Detroit ended up being one of the worst teams in the NFL last season, the case can be made that Philadelphia should avoid these players at all costs since there will be plenty of other great options worth considering.

However, the Lions actually have a few potential free agents that could help the Eagles fill a few needs on both sides of the football, and put the team in better position to earn another trip to the playoffs during the 2020 season.

Despite all of the injuries Philadelphia experienced throughout 2019, the team still managed to rally when it mattered the most late in the year to extend their playoff streak to three seasons in a row, but doing so again in 2020 will be easier said than done.

Rightfully so, the Eagles will enter the new season as one of the early favorites to make a run at the Super Bowl in the NFC, but in order to live up to the hype, it will be important for Philadelphia to address their needs this offseason through both free agency and the draft.

As far as potential free agents are concerned, here are a few names that stand out the most in regards to the Lions when it comes to players who could help the Eagles in 2020, even if they don’t sound like the most exciting candidates in the world.
