The Detroit Lions have a new general manager. Now all that’s left is to fill the head coaching vacancy.
Just this past week Sheila Ford Hamp hired former Los Angeles Rams Director of College Scouting Brad Holmes to be their executive vice-president and general manager. Holmes has been lauded for his ability to find talent, something the Lions desperately need.
Considering the state of the Lions, Holmes will have his hands full restocking this roster. That doesn’t mean he can’t do it, it just means it will be a challenge and won’t happen overnight.
