Detroit Lions banking on bench depth after Brad Holmes WHIFFS on Trade Deadline Opportunities

Detroit Lions face harsh criticism for sitting idle at the NFL trade deadline while contenders like Philadelphia, Indianapolis, and Dallas made aggressive roster upgrades. With Frank Ragnow retired, Taylor Decker battling injuries, and Graham Glasgow struggling at center, did Brad Holmes miss a crucial opportunity to bolster the offensive line? Matt Dery breaks down the Lions' puzzling inactivity, Dan Campbell's comments on trade strategy, and why the team is now considering practice squad players instead of proven starters. The discussion covers offensive line regression over the past three games, Hendon Hooker's release from Carolina's practice squad, and the upcoming road test against Washington. A passionate caller delivers a fiery rant about the team's lack of aggression and questions whether Detroit has what it takes for a deep playoff run. Tune in for an unfiltered analysis of the Lions' championship window and whether their conservative approach will cost them when it matters most. #firstlisten Want to be our Call of the Day?
