As rumors swirl about the Lions poaching Kevin Colbert from the Steelers, the team has zeroed in on a group of GM candidates worthy of a second interview.

He left the Lions to join the Steelers in 2000. Pittsburgh has 10 division titles, three Super Bowl appearances and two Super Bowl titles during Colbert’s time in the organization.

Holmes, 41, has spent the duration of his 18 years in the NFL with the Rams. He’s been in charge of the draft for the organization since 2013.

Aside Caldwell from being considered someone with mutual respect for his players, Quin points out Caldwell’s attention to detail and calm demeanor when things go wrong.

The Lions badly need help on defense. Of course, they also need help at wide receiver, and they just might be looking for a new franchise quarterback.

Based on reports Monday and Tuesday, it sounds like the Lions prefer multiple candidates over Saleh. And it sounds like Saleh is most likely to end up with the Jets.

Todd Bowles will interview later this week as the Lions’ seventh candidate for head coach. And now they’ve identified a 12th candidate for GM.

In Tampa, Bowles has led a defense that ranked No. 15 in the NFL last year and No. 6 this year. The Bucs led the league in rushing defense and were tied for fourth in sacks in 2020.
