The Detroit Lions have released their depth chart for Week 1 of the 2013 season. It's considered unofficial, as evidenced by the fact that Dylan Gandy is still listed as the starting right guard. You can check it out below, but don't believe everything you read. Practically no changes were made from the first one that came out at the start of the preseason to now (minus the removal of players who were released and the addition of those who have signed since then), so I think Jim Schwartz is trolling us a bit.
