USAT: Lions Wire

Feb 28, 2022

Just in time for the 2022 NFL scouting combine, the fourth edition of the Detroit Lions mock offseason is here. - The concept here is to present different scenarios Lions GM Brad Holmes and his team could pursue in this offseason. Rather than just sticking with draft picks, the mock offseason covers potential player cuts and contract restructures, trades, free agent comings and goings and then tacking on the draft as the speculative cherry on top. - The theme for this one is exploring the Lions being bigger players in the defensive free agent market and using more of the draft capital on more developmental types of players. - Lions mock offseason v3.0: Presenting the QB of the future - Lions mock offseason v2.0: The one with the trades - Lions mock offseason for 2022, first edition - As with the earlier scenarios, this is an idea — a path the team can follow, not a recommendation or endorsement. It’s not a prediction either, just a look at how the team might think. The last in the series will be the “what I would do” edition.
