The Detroit Lions made six picks in the 2024 NFL draft, hosted down the block from their home at Ford Field in downtown Detroit.
Now in Year 4 of this regime, Lions general manager Brad Holmes and his staff, and coach Dan Campbell and his assistants, went to work in the draft. The Lions came away with two cornerbacks in the first two rounds in effort to bolster the ailing secondary, then on Day 3 added depth on both sides of the line of scrimmage.
The Lions are legitimate Super Bowl contenders, and they have one goal for the 2024 season: To do something no team in franchise history has ever done.
The front office has put its stamp on what looks to be another solid offseason.
