With the Complete NFL Scout combination, the plot for what the Detroit lions will do in the NFL draft start to build. The Director General Brad Holmes exchanged in two of the last three years, while trading in the sixth overall selection in 2023.
Holmes has become one of the most unpredictable people in the draft, because he favors adjustment and the best player available on the traditional team’s needs.
NFL project analyst Pro Footh football Trevor Sikkema believes that the team is more likely to exchange in the top, but can see the team win one of the best rushers of the draft during their 28th overall selection.
“If anything, I think they will go back. I think if I had to bet at the moment, I bet they are staying in place because I think one of these good rushers on board will fall for them,” Sikkema told the team’s website. “If they believe that another rusher on board, a first-round rusher rusher, is what could take them over, they will have the ability to do so.
“If anything, I have the impression that they will go back even if they are in a winning window,” continued Sikkema. “They could certainly become aggressive. Looking at just the talent available in this project class, there are so many guys in the trenches.”
The perspectives of the best edges of this year’s class include Abdul Carter de Penn State, Mike Green from Marshall, Walker milestone from Georgia and Shemar Stewart from Texas A&M.
Sikkema believes that this year’s recovery class is in the trenches. Consequently, it can be wise for Lions to maximize their opportunity to add depth and talents on both sides of the ball.
“They are a certain age in the trenches on the offensive side that they might want to think in the long term, a bit like the Eagles of Philadelphia have done in the last two seasons that have produced a super bowl last season,” noted Sikkema.
The return trade would also allow the Lions to store the capital project, because Holmes has traditionally been effective with its assets. In doing so, the Lions could create more opportunities to write players in what is an interior and defender Edge class.
“I just have the impression that (Strait will exchange) behind and will get an additional choice of second or third round to continue investing in the trenches on both sides of the ball,” said Sikkema. “If anything, they will come back, but I think they will get an impact rusher at the end of the first round.”
