The Detroit Lions have been one of the NFC’s most complete teams this season, but even great rosters have weak spots — and one new trade proposal may have just revealed where Detroit could quietly look to improve.
Analysts believe that while the Lions have top-tier talent on both sides of the ball, there’s a “sneaky position of concern” that could use extra depth before the playoff push. Whether it’s reinforcing the secondary, adding a rotational pass rusher, or boosting the depth behind the offensive line, the idea is simple — stay ahead of potential problems before they cost you in January.
With the trade deadline approaching, this proposed move would give general manager Brad Holmes a low-risk, high-reward opportunity to strengthen the team’s balance. Holmes has a reputation for making shrewd, culture-fit acquisitions — players who buy into Dan Campbell’s system and elevate the locker room as much as the field.
Detroit doesn’t have many holes, but it’s the smart teams that fix small leaks before they turn into cracks. If the Lions pull the trigger on a deal like this, it could be exactly what they need to stay strong down the stretch and make a serious run at the NFC crown.
