Lions GM Brad Holmes didn’t have far to travel for a major pro day on Friday. Holmes and Detroit defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn took the short jaunt out I-94 west to Ann Arbor for the Michigan Wolverines pro day workout. - The featured attraction is EDGE Aidan Hutchinson, and the big Detroit native did little to convince anyone otherwise. He is in definite consideration for the No. 1 overall pick, and the Lions at No. 2 have shown real strong interest in Hutchinson as well. - Hutchinson met with Glenn and Holmes after the workout, a meeting confirmed by numerous sources in attendance. They spent at least 20 minutes together. Hutchinson also did a full-length interview with Dannie Rogers of the Lions media team. - Hutchinson wasn’t the only Wolverine who should pique the Lions’ interest. Safety Daxton Hill is a great fit for Glenn’s split-safety defense and is a frequent projection in mock drafts for Detroit with the No. 32 or No. 34 overall pick. The Lions met with Hill during the NFL scouting combine. - Another top Wolverine prospect did not have a good day, unfortunately. EDGE David Ojabo went down with a lower leg injury that silenced the crowd. A likely top-25 pick, Ojabo suffered an audible pop and went down to the practice field turf in obvious pain and anguish. - - Spotted David Ojabo on the way out of Michigan’s pro day. He was on crutches and in a walking boot with a wrap that went almost up to his knee. - — Anthony Broome (@anthonytbroome) March 18, 2022 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Lions Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Lions Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
