Lions Hire Brad Holmes

[Lionsfanfromsac]

bring in schwartz as hc, caldwell as oc, lewis as DC

who says no ?

I’d be for it… But it looks like Caldwel might be the Texans front runner for head coach.
I think that makes some of the first EX lions coach to be rehired as a head coach.

Wade Phillips has said he is retiring from retirement....



Seems to always have a pretty good defense. I wonder what his relationship is with Holmes? Bring him in as a DC?

Wade Phillips is one of the greatest defensive minds of all time, I'd be thrilled to bring him in! Every defense he touches turns to gold

Wade has a good track history of great defenses. Not sure of his age, but he’s too old, I’d be in favor of him as a special advisor or mentor for another wade Phillips disciple/coaching tree defensive guy.

Okay, so let's say you are Brad Holmes. Everyone on the team is not on the roster in 2 years. Except, you can keep 5 players. Who are they?

1) D'Andre Swift
2) T.J. Hockenson
3) Frank Ragnow
4) Jeff Okudah
5) Romeo Okwara

[LionsFan..LOL]

Decker, Ragnow, Okudah, Swift, and Hockenson.

The only reason I have Swift listed is due to the lack of talent on the team. He's a good player but I'd rather keep positions harder to find/develop. I thought about Walker but he was so bad this year I'm not sure (though I do want to see him with a real NFL coach and not coming off an offseason where his cousin was murdered).

[garnotm]

Decker, Ragnow, Okudah, Hockenson, were my answers as well. Swift is good but I think running backs are easier to replace than some other positions not really sure where I go with the last person to behonest because honestly the defense is probably getting overhauled from a 3-3-3 or 3-4 and that means lots of changes so I am going to go with Oruwariye as my 5th. I think with a better pass rush his numbers would look a lot better.
