SURPRISE MOVE: Brad Holmes Says Detroit Lions COULD Skip Tackle and Edge in Draft.

Detroit Lions’ GM Brad Holmes sparks debate: Will the 2024 NFL Draft focus on need or best player available? With Larry Borom and DJ Wonnum viewed as starting-caliber options at right tackle and edge, Holmes hints the Lions may bypass those spots early—challenging fan expectations. Matt Dery breaks down the pre-draft press conference, discusses the impact of “financial constraints” on free agency, and spotlights key contract extensions for Jahmyr Gibbs, Sam LaPorta, Jack Campbell, and Brian Branch.

Mock Draft Monday sees the Lions projected to land Utah tackle Spencer Fano, while rising tight end Kenyon Sadiq enters the conversation as a surprise first-round fit. Additional segments include an ode to the surging Detroit Pistons, analysis of Holmes’ roster strategy, and shoutouts to Jamie Edmonds and upcoming guests Jon Ledyard and Trevor Sikkema. Are the Lions set for a draft shocker, or is this all just a pre-draft smokescreen? #firstlisten
