Normally, teams are looking to copy anything and everything they can from the Super Bowl champions. The copycat league of the NFL can often lead teams to chase trends instead of getting ahead of them.
If the Detroit Lions are looking to copy from GM Brad Holmes’ past roots in Los Angeles, he’s got an interesting concept to appropriate from his old team. The Rams aren’t sending either GM Les Snead or head coach Sean McVay to this week’s NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis.
It’s an interesting choice, one that the Lions and Holmes aren’t likely to follow. The Rams do not have a pick in the first 100 selections in this year’s draft, so it’s quite a bit less important for them to know all the top prospects in the 2022 NFL draft. But it is still seen as a radical move by the world champions.
