"Lions GM Brad Holmes Open to Trading Out of First Round in NFL Draft"

Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes is open to the possibility of trading down out of the first round of the NFL Draft despite hosting the event, acknowledging that it may disappoint fans. With limited top draft picks, acquiring additional resources for Day 2 could benefit the team, and Holmes believes they could still secure a similar level of talent in the second round. He also recognizes that the team may not have the opportunity to select top-tier players as they have in previous drafts and advises fans to be prepared for the possibility of the Lions not making a pick on the first night of the draft.

SNAP recipients struggle as pandemic boost expires.

With the end of extra pandemic-era cash assistance for food, SNAP users are buying 12% fewer groceries than a year ago and are increasingly trading down to private-label brands to stretch their SNAP money for groceries. However, those budgeting measures have expanded to all categories, including infant and home and garden departments. Walmart is becoming the store of choice for offering lower grocery prices, with the superstore capturing nearly 26% of SNAP dollars each year. SNAP recipients are not expressing more concern about their financial outlook for 2023 compared with two months ago.

"Packers Eye Trade-Down Options and Tight End in 2023 Draft"

The Green Bay Packers are considering trading down from their No. 13 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft to target a tight end such as Michael Mayer or Dalton Kincaid later in the first round. While taking a tight end in the top 15 picks would be risky, trading down would create extra draft capital and allow the Packers to address other holes in their roster. However, finding a team willing to trade up can be a challenge.

"Decisions and Options: Detroit Lions' Draft Dilemma"

The Detroit Lions have the option to trade up, trade down, or stay put with their sixth pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. While the team's position may incentivize them to wait for the draft to fall to them, trading up is not out of the question if general manager Brad Holmes has resolve on a player. On the other hand, trading down could be a good strategy to accumulate more picks. However, the talent drop around the sixth overall pick could challenge Detroit's ability to move down.
