Detroit Lions Onsi staff editors take a look at a number of subjects while the team moves more deeply in the offseason, including Dan Campbell’s media sessions at NFL Combine, which will focus on the group From position, a player could exchange that the Lions could exchange lions for and if they think that the team will exchange or return.
1. What do you hope that Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes will be questioned at Combine?
Christian Booher: The combination being the first time that Campbell has been addressed to the media this offseason, it will be interesting to make your thoughts on the hiring of John Morton and what the process of bringing back to Detroit. I also think that it will be interesting to hear his reflections on having to face Ben Johnson twice a year in the NFC North. Regarding Brad Holmes, any kind of nugget concerning the project will be intriguing. Last year, he spoke for a long time of his affinity for the covering of the cornerbacks and ended up taking one in the draft. Any clue that he can drop would be like gold for fans and experts.
Vito Chirco: exchange of Myles Garrett. Do Lions have a legitimate interest in acquiring the Rusher All-Pro Edge? Not that Campbell or Holmes answer it. But these are the questions that each fan of the Lions wants to hear.
2. What positions of the exercises should the Lions monitor?
Booher: I think Lions should pay particular attention to the defensive line training, both interior and on -board defenders. The two position groups are areas of need for the team, and both have a lot of depth in this class. There will be good players on the defensive line available throughout the seven -round draft, so the Lions will have options each time they decide to continue a player in these positions.
Chirco: For me, it is a question of checking the on -board defenders and the interior defensive line player. In Edge, it is a question of looking for and obtaining a good film on Shemar Stewart by Texas A&M and Nic Scourton and Mike Green from Marshall. Meanwhile, with regard to interior defensive lines, I think Lions should devote some time to look at the tastes of Michigan Mason Graham and Kenneth Grant and Derrick Harmon from Oregon.
3. Is there a player for whom you think the lions could exchange in draft?
Booher: At this stage of the offseason, I am sure that there are players the very convinced lions and could make movements. Brad Holmes never moved away from getting into the draft to get the players he loves, like Jameson Williams in 2022 and Terrion Arnold last season. Their greatest position of need seems to be at the limit, and there are several players who could be out of the set when the lions are on the chronometer. In order to get a player like Mike Green, James Pearce or Mykel Williams, it seems that Lions should go up. Many things can change regarding the stock of titles in the coming weeks, and that is why the combination is such a big event.
Chirco: I would like Mason Graham. I think he has the intangible active ingredients necessary to be an interior defensive line with high impact at the next level. The 6 inch and 320 pounds feet recorded a 91.1 professional football focus note in 2024. total.
4. Do you think the Lions exchange, exchange or stay at No. 28?
Booher: I currently think that the Lions will stick and choose 28 in total. I also know that the dominant feeling among the fans base and the experts through the league is that the team uses this choice in an agreement to seek Myles Garrett, with which I am also on board. However, if the Lions keep the choice, I expect them to make a selection rather than getting or going down, because there will be a lot of offensive or defensive interior aid that Detroit could use immediately.
Chirco: I agree with Christian. At this current stage, I do not see the lions riding or going down from the overall choice n ° 28. I think Brad Holmes will hold Pat and will eventually choose the best available player, whether in Edge, the defensive tackle, the corner or The interior of the offensive line.
5. What was your favorite Lions victory for the 2024 season?
Booher: My favorite victory for the Lions of the season was the victory of the week 18 over the Vikings of Minnesota. There was so much media threshing leading to this game, and the challenges of the winner taking the lead in the playoffs created a ton of intrigue. Detroit dominated this game in what was its best defensive match of the season, and Jahmyr Gibbs experienced an exceptional game that marked four affected. It was not the prettiest game, but the Lions claimed their domination against a good team of Vikings and proved that they were the best in the North in front of a national audience.
Chirco: It must be the beat of the Lions of the Vikings in the regular season final. Detroit absolutely dominated Sam Darnold and the Vikings from start to finish. And to make it even softer, the Lions won the NFC North and the N ° 1 seed of the NFC by winning the aforementioned competition. This is why this victory comes out of me as the best victory in Detroit in the 2024 campaign.
