What's the most important thing Holmes accomplished over the course of the draft?
"We just achieved the goal of we stuck to what we said we were going to do and that's just get good football players and get the best football players that fit what we're looking for," he said. "I believe that's what we set out to do and we did."
What Holmes and head coach Dan Campbell are preaching about what kind of football team they want to build was represented in the players they acquired over the last three days.
How do the players Holmes drafted fit with where the NFL is going?
"All these players we felt do fit the new-age modern era of where the game is going," Holmes said.
Holmes gave that response to a question specifically about fourth-round pick Derrick Barnes, but he really expanded his answer to include a number of different players selected over the last three days.
Holmes said Barnes is fast, explosive, can run, has long arms and can shed blocks. He plays with a tenacity that Detroit's front office and coaching staff loves. He has a background as a pass rusher, but also played the MIKE, so he has versatility to do a lot of different things. Holmes said that's needed in today's game.
