Detroit Lions host house

All Park – Matthew Golden is an electric playmaker from which the NFL design of this month is generally expected.

The Texas Wide Receiver had 987 yards and nine touchdowns last season and then recorded a 4.29-second 40-yard fittings board, the fastest time among recipients and the second fastest among all combinations.

And the Detroit Lions wanted to know more and organize the Golden NFL network during a visit to the weekend disappointed. The Lions selected 28 in round 1. Golden fall would not be an exceptional surprise, but it is usually mocked well before this point.

Mel Kiper von ESPN had Golden from Pice 16 to the Arizona Cardinals in his last signal design. Daniel Jeremiah from NFL Network took the golden 16th place under the view and sent the Texas recipient to the Dallas Cowboys in his last mock at Pice 12.

The Lions have things better than most teams at Wide Receiver. Amon-Ra St. Brown is a back-to-back-all-pro-Pro-All-Pro with three consecutive seasons of more than 100 catches, more than 1,000 meters and at least six touchdowns. Jameson Williams is a special playmaker who excluded his potential last year and has reached 1,000 yards for the first time in his three -year career.

They also have Kalif Raymond and Tim Patrick back on the recipient to round off the recipient rotation.

However, the Lions said that they would like to add some young people to the position, and Williams still has two years of team control over his rookie deal as soon as the option is exerted in the fifth year as expected.

“Look, he was an enormous player for us last year,” said Lions General Manager Brad Holmes at NFL owners. “He still scratches the surface. I think he has more in it too. So I just think that it makes sense for us to do what we can do to keep it nearby.”

However, things could be interesting because the lions are aware of how expensive recipients of Williams’ caliber and ability can become. It is a difficult situation with so many extensions on the horizon, not to mention the potential risks associated with Williams.

Aidan Hutchinson and Kerby Joseph are expected to land large extensions. Hutchinson has proven to be one of the elite pass -rushers of the game and emerging defensive star. Joseph is fresh from an all-pro offer by the first team in which he led the NFL with 10 interceptions.

But the invoices are shortly before the return of Jahmyr Gibbs, the linbacker Jack Campbell, the narrow end of Sam Laporta and the defensive Brian Branch, so that long -term thoughts are carried out with every movement.

Williams is a fatal playmaker. Last season he converted 58 receptions into 1,001 yards and seven touchdowns and added another 61 yards and a score on the floor. However, Williams is the most risky option of these potential extensions with its two suspensions in three seasons.

“We still take it as possible. With its option in the fifth year, it will probably look that way,“ With regard to extensions, there are also many extensions that will hopefully come.

“It is just one that you don’t know what will happen from a financial point of view because a wide recipient – it is expensive. Very expensive.”

Golden would give the offensive another explosive playmaker and at the same time promote space for the future if difficult decisions have to be made. The broad recipient was still a sneaky need in the draft, and while visits are expected to check visits to boxes and learn more, this is one of the more interesting pairings that come into the wire.
