General manager Les Snead is open to trades for impact players, particularly an elite cornerback, to shore up the secondary under coordinator Chris Shula. The team, which added key defenders in 2021 to win it all, faces pressure to improve their coverage issues exposed in big games. With two first-round draft picks in April, Snead is considering potential successors for quarterback Matthew Stafford, who has one year and forty million dollars left on his deal.
