Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes never shies away from trading for players he likes, whether that’s moving up or down. It can come at a steep cost, but that is easily forgotten if the picks pan out. While there was a less than enthusiastic response to the price the Lions paid to trade up 32 spots in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft for WR Isaac TeSlaa, Brad Holmes has given us plenty of reason to trust his judgement.
Following his fifth draft as Lions GM, Holmes has over a dozen trades under his belt.
