MOBILE, Ala. – Lance Newmark, Detroit Lions Director of Player Personnel, was gracious enough to sit down with me here at the Senior Bowl to discuss a variety of topics that included this week’s event, this year’s draft class, Bob Quinn’s influence on the Lions personnel department, and the importance of this offseason for the organization.
What is the biggest benefit of Senior Bowl week?
“First and foremost, it’s football,” Newmark said. “It’s competition on the football field. It’s real. It’s what we do vs. individual testing or doing drill work in a controlled environment.
