Summary
Detroit Lions GM Brad Holmes is turning heads with four straight winning seasons and NFC North titles, but the luxury of talent comes with tough salary cap decisions. With stars like St. Brown, Williams, and Gibbs locked in, trading tight end Sam LaPorta to Carolina might be a smart move—especially if he’s behind the offense’s top options and making over $15 million. It’s not weakness—it’s strategy, like Howie Roseman did with the Eagles. Holmes may be reallocating draft picks to strengthen a defense that’s key to future success.
