Wow! A big TE with soft hands and decent run after catch moves! He’s going to fit into the Lions offense nicely. Considering how Goff doesn’t throw downfield much this kid is going to catch a lot of balls for us.
@johnhollandjr.2632 Same! I just hope he's healthy, he's gonna be a star in this league. Him, Goff, the sun God, gibbs and Monty is gonna be hard to contain
OK. I get it. This guy was their only real threat. Defenses schemed to just stop him. Their qb throws a good ball but doesn't look off coverage and this guys still finding openings, coming down routinely with balls and getting yac. I was firmly against tes, pissed the lions took one and... well f me this guy's a star
Exactly what I was thinking, just imagine when he is facing single coverage with a linebacker ? Especially how creative Ben Johnson is with our tight ends.
And the best of those highlights came from the one season, his freshman year, that he had a competent quarterback throwing to him. The last three years he's drawn double coverage. Sometimes triple because it was that obvious where their qb was going to go with it. Lions had great tight end play before, and will going forward also. Dan
Yea but we drafted him with a 8th overall and he still wasn’t at his ceiling. He still was. Getting better and is a great tight end fight now alread. Good trade for us tho cause of the money
really excited about this guy, he has the mobility and hands of great modern TE's, and he's smooth on the field, but tough, which will be (hopefully) great for staying healthy.
Only remarkable time I can think of is the Seahawks game last season. He had almost 200 yards and 2 TDs. That was his only breakout game for either team he played for
I don’t know if this is true but the guy said Laporta was top receiver. If so. Gibbs was top receivers for Alabama. So we have a TE and a RB that’s the top receivers for the Lions.
I think we're modelling our offense after the 49ers, especially since we literally tried to trade for Deebo Samuel last year. A truly positionless offense where our RB (Gibbs) can play WR, our slot WR (St. Brown) can play RB, LaPorta can play outside as a WR or inline as a TE, etc.
This guy was such a hidden gem! Brad Holmes should be commended for finding and drafting this guy after getting rid of TJ Hock and his giant contract. Rookie of the Year! One Pride
@Zack Pierce 😂😂. ALWAYS gonna be people unhappy. We got Best RB to me, Best ILB and S, Complete TE and A TOP 10 Talent QB To either be a back or win job from Goff.
