With the first significant domino falling on Wednesday afternoon when the Denver Broncos hired George Paton as their next general manager, it’s realistic to expect things to move significantly quicker for the Detroit Lions in their search.
One candidate who has emerged this week is Colts assistant general manager Ed Dodds. Dodds has one of the best reputations out there, having helped build a championship team during his long tenure within the Seattle Seahawks organization then helping the Indianapolis Colts undergo a quick turnaround. He also happens to be one of the most popular choices among Lions fans for the job.
