My dream FA / Draft (based on the tea leaves)

Not what I would do…but based on the legit tidbits I’ve been able to piece together

FREE AGENCY

-Sign Stephon Gilmore
-Sign Darious Williams
-Resign Garnder-Johnson (another prove-it contract)

-Sign surprise pass-rusher. Maybe Jadeveon Clowney.

-Sign solid NT. Wild guess, Daquan Jones.

-Resign Glasgow, and Sign starting-quality 4th interior OL (OG/C). Maybe Evan Brown?

-Sign depth outside WR (Josh Reynolds, Michael Thomas, Noah Brown, etc.)

DRAFT

1st. Outside WR… No idea who. But it’s who we spent our time scouting. Build on strength.

2nd. OG. Again, no idea who, but it’s who we spent our time scouting.

3rd A. TE. I hope Ben Sinnott.

3rd B. DL. DT/SE Braden Fiske. NT McKinnley Jackson. WE/SLB Jonah Elliss. I like all 3.


Based on what I can figure out front-office is thinking, that’s what I’m hoping

I always prefer to take Oline and DLine guys early.

I am not sure how the Lions don’t take a shot at a CB or DE/DT with that 1st round pick.

I just do not see WR as an issue as far as finding a serviceable one later or in FA.

Anyway, the nice thing is Holmes has done a great job giving himself flexibility in this draft. He has quite a few moves available to him.

You said it ^

I don’t think Holmes is gonna leave much up to chance in the draft.

I think he signs two starting corners and resigns GJ. I think he signs an edge rusher. I think he signs a NT. I think he signs a LG. I think he signs an outside WR. He’s already tendered a TE (Wright).

I think he covers all his bases this coming week.

Then I think he takes the best / most dangerous player with each pick in the draft, regardless of position
