When it comes to the hiring process of NFL general managers and coaches, let me start off by saying this: No one knows anything.
Sorry, but that's just the harsh, dim reality of the NFL.
Not exactly inspiring words, eh? Especially not as the Detroit Lions embark on yet another search in yet another attempt to change the fortunes of their woebegone franchise.
I’ve covered the Lions for 15 seasons, which means two things: I’m up for early parole release in a few years, and this will mark the third GM and the fifth coach the team will hire during my time on the beat.
