If teams are still taking swings on Josh Gordon every single year because of 1 season he had 8 years ago, OBJ will get his shot lol 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OBJs style of play fits very well with them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see it happening but it's an option. Otherwise I see no benefit. Truly is the best gamble for them. Feed him, let him show if he is worth anything and then trade for anything. Worst comes to worst you cut him at no cost in the offseason. Very low risk very high reward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Friend Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) Really, there would be no downside for Detroit. Whats the worse case scenario? They lose games? They are already 0-8? He's a "distraction" on a winless team? Cut him. He'll impede the development of the WRs in front of him? Whom? PR/KR Kalif Raymond? He's not a good fit? Cut him. He can step in and be the #1 target with 15 targets a game right away. I think his mentality would mesh well with Dan Campbell. He could provide a viable target for Goff, allowing the Lions to actually access the talent and abilities of others on the field. And John Dorsey was the man who acquired him in Cleveland, who is now with the Lions. There might not be much upside, but there is no downside. Low floor/low ceiling signing.

Goff could be a goofy Eli Manning impersonation too. Like he has pedrigree, but clearly isn't a top talent. Has arm strength issues, but can hit them occasionally. Isn't a strong personality to clash with and can lock on and fill a diva WR's need to targets. The downside of Odell is if the Lions are already sold on a heir apparent QB in the upcoming class. The off chance you win, or Odell has success but you still lose and you have to introduce the rookie to a diva off the bat. If Odell got 80 yards a game with Goff, went winless but he was their best offensive player that is a hard sell cut to the fanbase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His arm talent is there he just isn't polished. I think a team will also fall for Malik Willis but it'll take an innovative OC to work and an emphasis on run game, and that's typically not something Detroit has either of. I don't think it's a clear players will go to ten class, but someone like Detroit could still take a first round QB to groom behind Goff and maybe develop them into a franchise option. Like the Lions still have the Rams likely playoff pick in the first as well and a QB could go there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the Lions are as high on the QB need as fans are. This is a 3 year rebuild. They will address BPA across the board. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree Im not a fan of Odell and wouldnt want him on my team personally screams selfishness to me, And still believe he got his "stardom" and people thinking hes "elite" because of his one handed grab against the Cowboys 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was never a believer of Baker at all, Glad they found a HC who can play to his strengths but giving him a fat contract would be on of the worst decisions this new Browns regime has made, And I think highly of what thew new regime is doing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
