    • @jleif7736
      @jleif7736 Před 10 měsíci +28

      thats not why we didn't get him.. Brad just knows Gibbs versatility is miles more valuable than a RB like Bijan. Brad is incredibly intelligent, and knows Ben Johnson will probably continue to prosper as an OC, and will land a head coaching gig at some point, and getting Gibbs into the program to run Ben's offense is going to help that kid so much. If you watch Gibbs Tape, and also the Lions 2022-2023 play calling, you then realize exactly why they got him. And by watching him in person at the Lions training camp, GIbbs has been absolutely lights out. His speed, his hands, his footwork, and route running is just a thing of beauty. I have very high hopes for both Gibbs, and Laporta. I think Sam Laporta is gonna be one of the steals of the draft. That kid can play.

      What we know which is a fact, is Gibbs has been very impressive in Training Camp, and him and Goff already seem to have really good chemistry. Same with Laporta. We also know for a fact that even our Defense in training camp, couldn't keep up with Gibbs. Nobody is expecting him to be a 1st ballot Hall of Famer..
