Lions willing to move up or down in draft for 'right guy'

ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes says he is willing to trade up or down again to get "the right guy" in next week's draft. And similar to past drafts since he took over in 2021, Holmes, whose first selection will come at pick No. 28, won't chase needs, but will remain aggressive in getting player Detroit wants.

In 2022, Holmes traded up 20 spots, from No. 32, to take Alabama wide receiver Jameson Williams with the 12th overall pick.
