No. There is another thread talking about Teslaa. The lions win with an elite offense. JAMO is vital to that. The Lions handpicked a player they felt the most comfortable with replicating what JAMO can do to an extent and therefore keep Saint and Laporta open and free to roam.
Brad does not like to waste picks. So he will go get players he identifies over guys who he and his group feels less strongly about. It works sometimes and it doesn’t work sometimes. Playing the hindsight 20/20 game is a fool’s game. The reality is people continued to expect Brad’s hit rate of the first few drafts. And that was mathematically unlikely.
Ya’ll act like Brad is doing color by numbers and oops, I got one too many receivers.
Tesla was an insurance policy for JAMO. There is rationale for Tesla that is not privy to most of us fans. Tesla was an insurance policy for JAMO. To make sure he continued to developed and in the event the 2nd contract did not come to be because he wanted too much.
