7th Round, Pick 219: Lions Select UNC WR Antoine Green

wouldn’t be surprised to see quite a few WRs as UDFA

Like his length to help make contested catches. Like most tall guys, his speed peaks after he gets in stride…fast on deep routes but not really “quick”. But that’s OK. We got lots of “quick” guys. Him opposite our idiot Jamo would really threaten defenses…whenever Jamo is not suspended or hurt…which seems to be most of the time

would like him at 210

Thank God we got that WR to offset the Jamo incident.

sarcasm alert…

Gibby, Laporta, Montgomery, & a healthy&more experienced Mitchell are gonna help…won’t be just one guy.
Ra has been verbal about wanting more deep shots this year, & hitting on a few of those will help to give Laporta & Gibby more space underneath

…you con’t want Gibby in space if you are the opposition. HAHAHAHAAH!!!

Or Quintez Cephus. Never too much expectation on a 7th rounder

“As a tall receiver…”

Josh Reynolds is 6’3", has chemistry with Goff, and has proven that he can occasionally get to the deep ball.

Antoine green is more aggressive at the catch point… but probably needs way more work with running routes

Was reading an article re every teams “steal”…“Green ran a 4.47 40-yard dash at the scouting combine, and he’s not a pure burner on the field, but he could stick and stay as a third receiver with his ability to get open with route panache, and win at the catch point. Green can also help his quarterbacks in scramble drills, which helps.”

Route panache, going to have to remember that one.

Hmm. If only we had a good mentor for Green.

Shit, that’s crazy, even the exact same 199 pounds. Almost everything is the same.
