Brad Holmes, Dan Campbell give behind-the-scenes details about Detroit Lions’ Day 1 draft haul

One of the nicer developments since the Detroit Lions’ regime change last year is a dramatic shift in transparency within the organization. From a business standpoint, it provides me with the opportunity to present more content. But from a fan point of view, it helps build trust by letting the public know that the people in charge are not afraid of revealing what’s happening behind the curtain.

Both Lions general manager Brad Holmes and head coach Dan Campbell revealed a little extra about the team’s process on Day 1 of the 2022 NFL Draft, in which the Lions scored play-makers on both sides of the ball: edge defender Aidan Hutchinson and wide receiver Jameson Williams.
