Lions' GM Brad Holmes: Strategic Draft Approaches and Team Building

The Detroit Lions' general manager Brad Holmes has shown a strategic and patient approach to the NFL draft. Holmes, who has led successful drafts since 2021, emphasizes not reaching for players to fill positions. Instead, he focuses on getting the right players for the team, regardless of the round. The Lions have seen success with their selections, but they still have areas to address. Holmes remains flexible and open to various scenarios to make the team better.

Even after a franchise-best 15-win season and a playoff upset, the team is looking to continue strengthening. ESPN draft analyst Jordan Reid praises Holmes for his unique and effective draft strategies.
