The Lions seem to have preferred Jahmyr Gibbs over Bijan Robinson all along

Seems like the Lions did prefer Gibbs for their offensive
Not knowing the subtleties, I’d have taken either in R1 IFF I thought they’d make the difference between berg good offense and a top 3 offense
(Kind of thing)

Gibbs and LaPorta — Johnson going to have a field day getting these guys the ball in creative ways

I’m fully expecting an explosive offense

All good to me

Interesting tidbit:
The average American male is 5’9", 199 lbs.

Here’s some other players that are close to Jahmyr:

I’d take a career parallel to Shady’s career.

Without looking at your post, that was my first thought as well

The average American male is almost 200 lbs? That seems way high. Lots of hamburger and hot dog consumption I suppose.

Edit: Looking it up, it seems like you’re right. Well I’ll be damned.

“average” is sometimes a misleading stat.
I’d bet the “median” is less than 200.
A few 300 pounders can skew “average”, but not “median”.

Good for you.

I’ve always wavered between 150-160 lbs at 5’10, now closer to 160 and I’ve never felt like a “small guy” but seeing that I’m 40+ lbs under the average is eye opening. It also doesn’t seem that way because I live in NYC where there’s a lot of in lean in shape people, at least in Manhattan. Upstate New York? Muuuch different story.

Ok, so how about that average sized Jahmyr Gibbs? :wink:
