Penei Sewell grew up in American Samoa, a long way—both physically and culturally—from Detroit. But just before he walked into the media room Monday, days after signing a contract that made him the highest-paid offensive tackle in football, Detroit Lions general manager wanted to make sure he had a touch of home. He greeted Sewell…

In the realm of the NFL Draft, success often hinges not solely on acquiring the top talent, but on adeptly utilizing available resources and capitalizing on the opportunities presented. The Detroit Lions epitomized this principle in their recent draft endeavors. Despite lacking the high first-round picks characteristic of their history, the Lions consistently struck gold
One of the Detroit Lions’ most fascinating picks in the 2024 NFL Draft was fourth-round pick Sione Vaki. He’s a do-it-all player who will almost certainly have an immediate impact as a four-phase special teamer—but he also has the experience and the skill set to potentially play on both offense and defense, too.
After making a couple of trades in the 2024 NFL draft, the Detroit Lions accelerated some of their 2025 draft capital by a year. The Lions and GM Brad Holmes dealt away two 2025 picks as part of trades over the draft weekend. Most notably, the Lions traded away their third-round pick in 2025 to
Following the conclusion of the 2024 NFL draft, the football community is scrambling to determine which teams had the most success. Traditionally, that means analysts assigning grades to players and the entire draft classes. But like everything related to the NFL Draft, for every opinion submitted, there is an analytical component that can also be…
Giovanni Manu has a very interesting path to becoming a fourth-round pick of the Detroit Lions. From a boy growing up in Tonga to playing high school basketball in western Canada, it’s a very unusual background for an NFL offensive lineman. Manu is a proud Tongan, and his Polynesian heritage is fiercely important to him.
,The overwhelming sense I get from Detroit Lions fans is that they do not care about draft grades anymore. That’s totally understandable after critics panned Detroit’s 2023 draft class, and then it turned out to be the best in football. Clearly, the public doesn’t have the breadth of knowledge that NFL general managers do, and…
Adding to their strong 2024 NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions made another great move hours after the conclusion of the NFL Draft. This move was signing Illinois WR Isaiah Williams to a contract as an undrafted free agent (UDFA). Certainly, Williams will need to prove himself but he appears to be worth rolling the dice
The Detroit Lions’ 2024 draft class is in the books, and while undrafted free agents are still trickling in, the initial roster is starting to take shape. However, despite all the fresh faces that will join the Lions for the upcoming 2024 season and beyond, there are still a few positions on the roster that…
The Detroit Lions came out of the 2024 NFL Draft with six very talented and intriguing players who will all be able to contribute this upcoming season. But as general manager Brad Holmes has frequently pointed out, the draft is not just about the present; teams draft for future needs. While a player may not
Watching the NFL Draft as a kid, I thought attending in person would have been a fun experience. Seeing the fans cheering on the picks and excited for their future seemed like something I wanted to do with my friends. In my high school speech class, we needed to make a bucket list and on…
Undrafted free agency is almost as fun as regular free agency. The Detroit Lions have signed 14 UDFA’s so far and they may not be done. Last year they signed 15. By the way, there is no limit. But if the Lions had one more spot left, there is a steal of a player that
