To say that this upcoming offseason is important for the Detroit Lions is an understatement. General manager Brad Holmes and head coach Dan Campbell are already miles ahead of where they were at this point last season—when they were just getting their bearings as new hires who had to kick off their Detroit careers with a blockbuster trade.
Now the fruits of that trade are upon us. The Lions have two first-round picks, nearly bookending the opening round with Picks 2 and 32, plus a few likely compensatory picks as a result of cleaning house last offseason.
