Detroit Lions Fall Short of Super Bowl but GM Brad Holmes Focuses on Sustained Success

The Lions came close to reaching the Super Bowl in 2023, but ultimately fell short against the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game. Despite this setback, General Manager Brad Holmes is focused on sustained success rather than a short-term “all-in” approach. He believes in continuing to improve every year through their process rather than chasing a championship window.

Holmes has been inspired by models like the Patriots and Chiefs and is determined to build a team that can compete at the highest level for years to come. To achieve this goal, he has made key draft picks such as Penei Sewell, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Aidan Hutchinson, Alim McNeill, Kerby Joseph, Jahmyr Gibbs, and Sam LaPorta to build their roster.

In addition to their draft selections, Holmes has also acquired quarterback Jared Goff in a trade with the Rams in 2021 and added Carlton Davis, D.J. Reader, and Kevin Zeitler during the offseason. As they head into the draft with the 29th pick, Holmes emphasizes the importance of sticking to their process even if it means trading out of the first round. He humorously hopes fans will forgive them if they do decide to make such a move.

Despite not winning a Super Bowl yet, Detroit is one of the 12 teams that have never won one. However, with Holmes’ focus on sustained success and his ability to make smart decisions like these trades and draft picks, it may not be long before they finally reach that coveted destination.
