4. STILL NOT DONE LOOKING FOR EDGE HELP
The drafting of Hassanein certainly doesn’t mean Holmes and the Lions are done looking for ways to improve their depth along the edge.
It’s hard to believe the Lions will be decimated by injury at the position again like they were in 2024. They get back one of the top five players at the position in Aidan Hutchinson and are hoping veteran Marcus Davenport can get past the injuries that have caused him to miss 30 games combined the last two seasons.
But I certainly wouldn’t be surprised if Holmes isn’t done adding to that room via free agency, a released veteran or a trade.
“It’s an ongoing, nonstop, relentless climb for just building a roster in general,” Holmes said. “It’s not a position that’s off limits, we’re always trying to look to get better. Sometimes you just — there’s not better out there past maybe the current starters you have, maybe there’s not better available versus the current depth you have.
“But yeah, we’re always trying to look for better and I definitely would not be doing my job if I did not continually look at every single avenue, which we’ll continue to do, for sure.”
