The Lions have come a long way in the last few years. An infusion of young defensive talent, and DC Aaron Glenn's approach to working with them, is a big part of why.
"You pick the guy that you love, that you feel like that fits what you do," said Glenn of his draft strategy."And Jack [Campbell] does that.
Detroit is building a roster with that end goal. They want a team made up of home-grown talent. They want their players to be with them for years. They want a chance to start from scratch with a player. It's why youth is desirable in Detroit."We do have a good amount of young players," said Glenn."And that's okay. I mean, we get a chance to mold them exactly how we want to mold them. And those guys do a really good job of understanding what we're trying to do.
It results in a scheme that is"relatable" to Lions players. And because it's relatable, it's easily internalized. But it evolves, too. It evolves year to year and evolves even in games, which is why that internalization and understanding is so important. "Even though this is a scheme that I have a vision of, the coaches do a really good job with their input on kind of tweaking it to where it fits everybody," said Glenn.
