Detroit Lions at the NFL Combine: Key Takeaways from Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes

The Detroit Lions have officially entered the next phase of their offseason, with the 2025 NFL Combine kicking off in Indianapolis. As the scouting world focuses on evaluating the next generation of talent, the Lions are positioning themselves to build on their recent success. Today, head coach Dan Campbell and general manager Brad Holmes spoke at their respective press conferences, offering insight into the team’s offseason plans, including their approach to the NFL Draft, free agency, and roster building.

With the NFL Combine officially beginning on Wednesday, February 26, and most of the action ramping up on Friday, we’ll break down everything from today’s press conferences, the Lions' free agent decisions, and potential external targets. Be sure to join us live tonight, Tuesday, February 25th, as we dive into the latest updates.

Key Takeaways from Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes at the Combine

At the Dan Campbell press conference, the Lions' head coach addressed key offseason priorities, the evaluation process at the NFL Combine, and the traits he and his staff look for in prospects. As always, Campbell emphasized player mentality and toughness as core values in Detroit’s scouting process.

Meanwhile, in the Brad Holmes press conference, the Lions’ GM provided perspective on roster-building strategies and Detroit’s approach to free agency. Holmes has consistently prioritized building through the draft, but with cap space and key free agents hitting the market, the Lions could also be active in adding outside talent.

NFL Free Agency: Internal and External Targets

As the Lions continue to evaluate their own free agents, decisions loom on who to re-sign and where to reinforce the roster. With key contributors potentially hitting the market, Detroit must balance keeping their core intact while exploring external free agents who fit their system.

Positions to watch include cornerback, defensive line, and offensive depth, areas where the Lions could seek reinforcements. The front office has been strategic with spending in recent years, and fans should expect targeted signings rather than splashy, high-priced moves.

NFL Draft 2025: Prospects to Watch

With the NFL Draft 2025 just two months away, the Lions’ scouting team will be closely evaluating top prospects at the combine. The team has been highly successful in the draft under Holmes’ leadership, and this year’s class presents another opportunity to strengthen the roster.
