Its not about caring. Its understanding value of each position and what they contribute ON the field to boost your success. When teams be throwing for 300 yards a game, mock drafters will be right. A running back....if thats the case shoulda took Bijan at 6.
@@Jonathan-cz4ky they dont do jack squat. Their scouts do the work and they get a small summary. But honestly those guys evaluate sobmany players they are burnt out and honestly could care less. Lmao!!!
Considering not only this franchise's overall history, but the state it was in when he took over - combined with the fact he had no experience in the role; I already see him as far and away the best GM this team has ever had, and one of the best in the league already. I don't think "legendary" will ultimately be a big enough word.
Brad completely jumped all other teams at RB, LB, and TE....then had great players fall to the at DB and QB. Totally nailed the draft. Got 5 top guys on their draft board at 5 positions we needed. How can you not love this draft.
I don't understand how some people have given us a low grade, we got the #1 LB,#1 Saftey, the 1-2# RB and the 1-2# TE and Herndon Hooker that would have went in the first round if he wouldn't have been injured. This also was not a great Draft class. Most teams only had 1st round grades of like 15- maybe 20 players at the most. Other than LaPorta all of the players I just mentioned, all have 1st round grades.
@Derek Bidelman I totally agree with you I think it goes back to what Brad says about the people doing the mock drafts not having all the tools they have to scout these prospects he went and got the players that fit what we are doing here.
Man how he explained why he understands the fans maybe aren't to happy with the picks because of mock drafts is so mature! It's really refreshing to see a GM like him

Brad Holmes is an ELITE GM. His communication skills, as well as his knowledge of the players, show that his cognitive ability to assess players is top notch. We're blessed to have him.
I can’t remember a GM for the lions being this comfortable being the front man . Really nice to see Holmes engaging with the fan base and national media. To me this comes from confidence. If you aren’t sure about what you’re doing as a leader you put up a wall around your vision and be cryptic in your explanations. He’s as up front and as honest as he can be without giving away the important stuff. He is a shrewd businessman that embodies confidence. He is confident in himself and the people he has chosen to be a part of this team. Well done Mr Holmes.
Lifelong fan almost 50 now and I have never had more belief in this organization, and it isn’t even close! Sheila, Brad and Dan, Thank you! This is amazing! Thank you

From Night Train Lane to AIDAN HUTCHINSON ....MY guess championship game or Super Bowl this yr. DEFENSE IS GOING TO ROCK! ...HOLMES HOLMES AND DAN CAMPBELL CAN YOU BELIEVE , PLAYERS WANT TO PLAY IN DETROIT!! HOLMES I want a Super Bowl ticket please !! lol LIONS YOU HAVE MADE THIS OLD MAN HAPPY WITH JUST YOUR EFFORT!!
They're always fun. Frustrating as hell and comical at times but they have always entertained in some way even if they were clowns (in the past). It's def. different to have above average leadership.
@@MarcusDETman stfu. The team is under new ownership and everything. There is no such thing as a franchise curse or any dumb bullshit you people like to talk about.
I'm of the belief Brad Holmes has a savant'ish way about him. He took advantage of every situation he was in and meticulously studied how it was done and how he might make it better. Brad's created a finite process of evaluating players, that takes into considering how the player fits the team, culture and coaching. I have a feeling he will have many people that work with him that will also be very successful. Lastly, I want him to be so great that he becomes a Detroit Lion legend and part of making the Lions a bonafide WINNER for years to come. Amen!
If we can be real, we aren’t on the up slope yet. We’ve plateau’d the down slope and are now just walking straight at the base of the mountain. This is the season where the uphill starts to come into play.
@Prince Yasher yes let's get the mojo in the air. Home field throughout the playoffs is what I'm expecting outta them this year. Good luck to anyone coming into the madhouse Ford field will be
Ya gotta love Brad’s energy and enthusiasm. He’s not just the GM, he’s a fan! This entire staff is so unique, to think of the potential of this organization and the team! WOW! ONE PRIDE! 🦁❤👍
People keep comparing who won the Stafford Trade..We won it 2 years earlier when Sheila hired Holmes from the Rams..That changed the whole trajectory of the Lions..We have never had this competant of a GM and a front office like we have now...This transformation is truly amazing and so great for the organization , its fan base, and the city..
I trust everything Brad does. He has transformed this football team in JUST 2 YEARS!!!! I been a huge Lion fan since I was 11 in 1985 and these are the best moves, best picks, best coaching player development in my fan life time. Yes he had a major advantage in trading away Stafford and getting a haul however its what he has done with it. Also who knows, Hendon Hooker could be next Hurts but more accurate. GOFF is my quarterback but if he don't perform we have a possible replacement. #OnePride
I'm thinking u resign Goff now and if hooker is a franchise qb then maybe u can trade Goff a couple years down the line. U sign Goff to a 3 year extension which would keep him here til 26, 27 maybe. If he goes out and plays like he did last year these next couple and hooker develops who's to say u can't trade Goff for a 1st. Imagine that, this stacked roster with an extra 1st 2 years from now and a cheap QB for 2 more years. Sounds like some dynasty type shit to me😂
@@joshlewis575 What if he is the next Andre Ware???????? You know how many QB's talking heads think a QB is a stud outta college then dude is trash? Why would Goff want to play another down for your football team if you brought in this guy and put him on the bench? Rodgers loved it when they drafted a 1st rounder. Only reason and only reason they took a chance on Hooker is because he fell to later rounds where you "could" get great value but if not you may have a decent back up.
I started watching the Lions(and football) in the mid 90's. Seeing Barry Sanders run was such a pleasure. Even then, they never won a division (I started after 91). THIS is OUR SEASON every fan who has endured the PAIN the Lions have dished out FOR THE LAST 30 YEARS. Not to mention the fans who have been watching longer then me.
Holmes’ interview with Mitch Albom says it all when asked if he was targeting a running back in the draft. His response: “we were targeting Gibbs”. It’s not all about positions to this competent GM, it’s about traits regardless of position. That is exactly why we’re starting to see an upward trajectory, combined with a coaching staff that can actually develop. F$@k the pundits and espn. This process is working in short order. Sit back and trust lions leadership for the first time in your life and enjoy sundays.
Yeah, Holmes gets it. I think he was born for this job. His thought process, even keld attitude and passion comes out and works for him. Doesn't work for everybody. But it works for him. And makes him who he is. With all the flunkies we've gone through over 50-60 years, this guy is refreshing, big time. I think we're due!
Brad Holmes is one of those guys that when he gives his rationale and reasoning behind his decisions, you just don’t question. It’s very clear that he knows what he’s doing and he’s confident in it. Dude is building a powerhouse!
Is it just me, or is pur PR the best its ever been? The fatman and Quinn would never tell is anything. Brad is totally comfortable telling us his process and standing on it. Veey refreshing
I think Brian Branch deserves to have Detroit fans, welcome him properly to the Lions.. The lonely walk he took by himself on draft day was SAD!!!! FRFR!!!! #OnePride
Brad Holmes has earned the trust of this fan base an the fact that he is one of the top GMs in the league. If this would have been his first draft people would be freaking out but look at his track record, he hasn't missed yet, he's not perfect, no one is but he's damn close.
I had a Raider fan text me after day 1 saying our GM has lost it, I texted him back we got one of two guys that can take it to the house from anywhere on the field and the only great LB with a very deep TE, DB, DL advantage Detroit, I see you Mr Holmes.
In Brad we trust! Hell of a draft and possibly the best of any team. Locker room guys mean more than people think . These are skilled locker room guys he picked .
I understand the pick we are going speed and he will add to our top 5 offense Goff just needs to stay consistent last year stats will take you deep if your defense steps up
I was a little upset on day 1 of the draft. Actually, more disappointed. Then the more I thought about it trusting Brad Holmes came to the front. To hear him say those words and watching some video and reading about some of our draft class. I am sold on everything they are doing. if it all works out Sheila, Brad and Dan will all be wearing gold jackets one day.
Brad Slips up!!! At the 17:17 mark he's about to say "that will BODE WELL for Ja...you know, a guy that when we wanna go explosive "! First, he almost said Jameson Williams! Which is no big deal and makes sense cause that's who will benefit from the "big arm" he mentions a few seconds before. BUT it's the fact that he's literally envisioning Hooker passing to Jameson that is the big deal... He's subconsciously (or consciously) expecting Hooker will be the replacement for Goff! He literally admits it with the words he chose!! Google search "Bode Well" the definition states - "to show or suggest that future developments or events will be good or favorable." As I had hoped.. and kind of expected, Hooker wasn't drafted to JUST be a backup, Holmes is expects much more!!
I caught Brad when talking about Hookers strong arm he started to say it would bode well well for Jamo not stopped on the J and said it would be good for when trying to play explosive.
Dang man, I appreciate him so much. At least he has a philosophy. I remember the Matt Millen era (8 long years). Brad is building something so special! #onepride
After listening to Holmes speak about several draftees not needing to play right away. That they had a bit of a runway to get up to speed-it’s clear that the Lions are finally able to play the long game with talent. Which should bode well in the bigger picture for Detroit.
I really think signing Brad as GM for life is the best decision. 🤣🤣🤣(or atleast 5 more year realistically). The passion is so amazing and the grind he has. More I’ve gotten to hear and read about his story the more respect I have.
As I was watching this draft go I could not have been happier. I rated all the player selections highly... Gibbs, Campbell, Laporta, and Branch. All are going to be great pros. I don't care where someone is drafted... Are they a good football player?
I am so glad it was said here as I kept saying it at all the draft haters. I trust Brad Holmes as he has not given me any reasons not to. If he believes these players are what we need to win let’s go.
Crazy how our backfield changed just like that. Can’t wait to see how good we are gonna look out there like some tough competition and hungry team that deserves it more than any other team.
Damn, Brad Holmes reminds me of Dr. Jordan Peterson. His communication skills through speech are crisp and based on facts that he's happy to reveal, explain and defend. Kudos also to the Lions top brass for exposing the organization to the fans via social media.
@A5ids Jordan Peterson is a brilliant and articulate human being who is laser focused on the problems that are plaguing society. What could you possibly have against JP? You one of those pronoun clowns or something?
Any Lions fan that was upset over the draft because it didn't line up with the Mel Kiper playbook, just remember how well Mike Mayok did for the Raiders
Don't you dare hold back Brad Holmes, you let it loose when you feel it! Friends I've other teams went from "act like you've been there before" to 'I wish my GM was like that"
“Brad Holmes doesn’t care about your mock draft” This is the truth and I love it.
I need this on a T shirt.
I mean to be fair what GM would ever care about public mock drafts when they work year round on evaluating these prospects lol

Big Brain Brad trading away out late picks to build relationships and still got his late round guys as UDFA 🤯🤯🤯
IN BRAD WE TRUST!!!
Watched some bama game footage of Gibbs. His acceleration, footwork and body control is absolutely incredible!
His highlight tape doesn't ever look like he even gets to full-speed😳. Like Jamo last year on that end-around play that went for 40ish yards.
If jamo cut that play back behide Goff it was a TD. He was a lil to excited gliding down field.
Vision and feel for the leverage of the defense too. I like the way he sets the defense up b4 he cuts to the hole. Dudes going to be an instant star.
Check out the GA Tech highlights as well. His talent jumps out that much more when he's levels above everyone on the field
Good chemistry in this interview. Nice work Tim

Eagles enters the NFC chat lol. We aint goin Super Bowl this year. Let’s just focus on the division first.
Any Lions fan that was upset over the draft because it didn't line up with the Mel Kiper playbook, just remember how well Mike Mayok did for the Raiders
Don't you dare hold back Brad Holmes, you let it loose when you feel it! Friends I've other teams went from "act like you've been there before" to 'I wish my GM was like that"
LOVE BRAD!!!!
Nice of Brad to sit on a short chair for you, Tim
