Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell has come in before his first regular season has even started and has provided a jolt to the franchise. Whether fans vibe with it or not, it can't be disputed that Campbell provides a far different perspective than other coaches and has become a walking quote.

That hasn't stopped with training camp underway. Via Kyle Meinke of MLive.com, Campbell is thrilled with the roster he has inherited and is happy there are “no turds” on the team.

“I think we’re fortunate because I do believe we have some talented players on this team that have grit, and that’s a good thing, you know?” Campbell said. “I said this when I walked in — there’s a number of guys that were here, and I think (Matt) Patricia and (Bob) Quinn did a great job of, there’s no turds here. There’s no bad guys.”

The Lions are in some sort of a retooling if not a full-on rebuild. They traded Matthew Stafford in the offseason to the Los Angeles Rams for picks and quarterback Jared Goff. Goff is a downgrade from Stafford and it's doubtful Detroit views him as the long term solution under center for the franchise. But that could always change.

Campbell also noted it's not always the case when taking over a franchise like the Lions who have struggled mightily to have a fairly good roster; in his opinion.

“That’s not always the case when it hasn’t been a successful program. Usually that’s not the case. (But) these guys work, and they are. They’re pretty tough-minded.”

Now we all wait to see how things unfold for the Lions and Campbell in his first year as head coach.
