The best schematic football coaches in the country coach high school or small college ball. The NFL is mostly nepotism. You make very little money as an assistant coach non coordinator.

I don’t remember the 2pt conversion with that play where Laporta ‘falls’…?

I honestly wasn’t sure at time if the hiccup fall was part of play 😏, or if he actually fell and it was an advantageous moment.

Great illustration of his strength and toughness. I nearly included that play. Had it in the editing program, just never included it. Tough hit over the middle left the Lions about 6 yards short of the 1st down with one down to go, I think. What I do know is that LaPorta popped right up and the ILB needed to be helped up, because he was on bad legs.

Thanks again for another outstanding analysis. As a +50 year Lions fan, LaPorta brings back memories of Charlie Sanders who was also a fantastic receiving TE for Detroit. Although I have to admit that I am not sure that Charlie could block as well as LaPorta. Charlie was active in the seventies and made the HoF. I can see Sam on that same path. And to think I was not initially a fan of the pick.

I have watched the Lions for almost 50 years. I have never seen the Lions be able to draft like they do now. Brad Holmes, Dan Campbell, and the scouting crew are doing incredible. Three excellent drafts in a row, and possibly a 4th with the latest draft, we will see.

A number of Lions fans are complaining about our lack of depth at WR.

Not to mention the other depth WRs, TEs, and RBs that will see some playing time. One important thing about Johnson and Campbell is that they use and trust everybody on the offence.

With dedication and with the D-line slated to improve under the tutelage of Terrell Williams, Campbell could be in for a big season.

Thank You Coach! Another quality video. As to the chat please pardon my incomplete comment as I was unprepared for the chat format; never done that before. Mostly I wanted to acknowledge and echo your comments on the versatility of Sam LaPorta as truely unique. Having grown up a Lions fan I cannot speak to your basketball comparisons so much as memories of All Pro TE Charlie Sanders & David Hill ...Detroit fans have had few truly talented TE to cheer for in my time and yes LaPorta has the ability to exceed both those players. Also too many TE in the modern game are only one dimensional and drawing comparisons to TE Kellen Winslow who was essentially a large slot receiver in the Air Coryell offense in San Diego. So few players today who line up at TE can block and play receiver as well as LaPorta!

The Lions 2023 Draft class could go down as one if the best draft classes ever. Gibbs, LaPorta, Branch, and Campbell in the same draft. All 4 of them will end up being Pro-Bowlers, and make an all pro team. Id say at least 2 will make the HoF.

My first impression of LaPorta was I think a draft interview with the Lions. He reminded me of a super villain, shackled in a chair and interrogated by superheroes with a look of supreme confidence because he knows he can break his bindings at will and smite these foolish do-gooders.

Laporta's ability to consistently make contested catches is amazing. Can we also take a minute to appreciate some of these absolute dimes that Goff is throwing? The man gets absolutely no respect, elite ball placement in tiny windows.

I do not even remember that. Wow. Kind of laughable to make that comparison that early, I guess I saw something. Yes, I would say there are some similarities, the unique athleticism first and foremost. I think LaPorta is more of a fast-twitch athlete in some ways. Although there was really so many special qualities to a young Gronkowski. He would have been a top 15 pick if he didn't have to sit out his Junior yer of college because of an injury. So, there are some drastic differences also.

Nicely done

Bout time Coach, he's deserving

As a lions fan my favorite Te coming out was Darnell Washington with him being 6’7 260 and being a good blocker I felt like he would be great. But I had LaPorta as a guy who I felt would end up being a steal since he was the only bright spot on an atrocious Iowa offense and Iowa has consistently produced great NFL TE’s

Great video!

The Lions have more great talent on ELCs than anyone else in the league. So yeah, some of the picks were considered low-value positionally, but 5-7 starters on ELCs is incredibly valuable in today's salary cap league.

so Coach @All_22_Films, we gotta talk... @11:57 is not a block against Marcus Davenport... (honestly I am quite excited to see that future video, and hope this motivates it sooner)... So Davenport in 2023 played for the Vikes, after he joined in March... Meanwhile, LaPorta as a rookie last year, here blocked #92 of the Saints in the video, Tanoh Kpassagnon, who is the 8 year pro out of Villanova that I had never heard of until I looked him up for this... Meanwhile Davenport hit the IR in week 6 last year, never came back I dont think, and then Kpassagnon just tore his achilles three weeks ago... Love these videos, not trying to be a jerk

I am a Lions Fan after my Ravens, I picked Detroit and Baltimore in pre-season 2023. (Came Close) I am picking the same two teams again. Ravens win in NOR Superbowl against Detroit Lions 27-19! Laporte is a younger version of MarK Andrews. Hope Lamar targets Mark and Likely like the Lions did LaPorte in a ridiculous over usage of the 12 personnel formation.

Youll notice teams dont even try to edge rush sewell half the time. Dudes a cheat code

My favorite play was against Denver I think where he collides with a few other guys

He's quite the kid isn't he? I believe next year he'll be more apt to finish his blocks cuz there are times where he seems like he gives up on them after he thinks the play is done and he doesn't need to block anymore but he'll find he'll need the block just a little bit longer.

I wanted him or Christian Gonzales heck I did a lot of mock drafts where I traded back to a mid round 1st and got both Gonzales and Porter in order to address our cornerback position. I thought Gibbs and Campbell would be our 2nd rounders and get LaPorta in the 3rd. I never really considered Branch since I know he is a safety/slot/lb combo and I wanted us to address the outside corners

Laporta and Hutchenson are the last two max contract players the Lions will give out for players they have now. It's just too hard to find and develop tight ends that are top 5 at their position. Laporta and ARSB can cause matchup problems because of who other teams put on them for coverages. The only teams that seem remotely successful vs them are ones with very athletic linebackers. Fact is most teams just don't have the player types to slow them down.

How can I join your Lions discord?

I said it, if you wanted a TE, last years draft was the one to get one. GB needed TEs and wouldn’t you know it? They get lucky with how it falls. Could have as many as 6 Pro Bowl caliber TEs from 2023 with Laporta being the best. I thought he would be a good fit for Detroit, but not like this.

So is the lions scouting staff f-ing amazing or are they good and really lucky?
