Lions need a CB and, smartly, want to go all-in. Saints need to get younger and cheaper.

Brad Holmes doesn't appear to be a "go all-in" guy. He said as much during his post-season press conference and all of his moves to date, this free agency period included, have backed that. It's driving some people in Metro Detroit crazy, because they feel that the time is now to go all-in and want that big star to help the Lions, since it's S-BOB time "Super Bowl Or Bust." But Holmes seems content to use free agency to raise the floor of the team and rely on the draft to raise the ceiling. So, I think trading their first round pick for a veteran seems unlikely.
I would have loved to see the Lions add Greenard or Hunter on the edge opposite of Hutchinson, but they went with Davenport.
I would loved to see Snead being the lockdown corner that the Lions have never really had, but they want with Davis and Amik Roberston.
I would have loved to see Christian Wilkins as a game wrecker in the middle of that defensive line, but they went with D.J. Reader.
