And I do want to start off talking about our Lions
0:03
Many Lions fans wanted to see Joey Porter Jr. come to Detroit
0:08
Well, he does get traded just from Pittsburgh to Dallas, not Pittsburgh to the Lions
0:14
And for me, that opens up a question when it comes to Brad Holmes
0:18
Normally, I am very opinionated, but when it comes to Brad Holmes here
0:23
I'm not necessarily sure what my opinion is. This is where I need you to chime in
0:28
But is Brad Holmes doing enough as the general manager of this team
0:34
Is he doing enough? Because I'm not telling you it was the right decision or wrong decision to pass up on Porter
0:39
Also not telling you it was the right or wrong decision to pass up on guys like Max Crosby
0:44
What I'm pointing out is there's been a lot of situations where fans have pointed to Brad
0:49
Holmes and said, you need to make an in-season move to make this team better
0:54
And that's just never been Brad Holmes' calling card. Outside of maybe Zadarius from a couple of years ago, he's never really made trade deadline moves or mid-season moves to make this team better
1:06
His bread and butter has always been making this team better in the draft And maybe outside of Tesla from a couple of years ago his last few drafts have not been good His big marquee moments in the draft have come early on in his tenure
1:20
Getting guys like Jameer Gibbs with a first round pick, you draft a running back that high
1:25
he better be elite. Well, guess what? Jameer Gibbs is just that. Getting Sam Laporta, many people said
1:32
he wasn't even the best tight end in the draft. He's proved to be an anchor to this Lions offense
1:37
and even guys like Jamison Williams and Jack Campbell who have been really big factors on this team
1:44
He did great in the early drafts, but since then, his drafts haven't really been home runs
1:49
He's made some contact on a few swings, but he's had a lot of swing and misses also
1:53
That's as of recently. So my question is, Joey Porter Jr., another guy that the Lions could have brought in midseason
2:01
definitely need help in the secondary. my question isn't is it the right decision for us to not make that move on him my question is
2:08
is Brad Holmes doing enough as the general manager would you like to see him make more moves
2:15
mid-season coming up at the trade deadline or are you content with the job he's done so far
2:21
I'm just saying it's a question mark I'm not throwing it out there that he's done a bad job
2:25
but maybe he could be doing a little bit more
