lol no.

we need to have a fire sale with our TE's. Ebron and Pettigrew are both trash

Fauria is the only decent TE.


What? Just... What?

As much as I hate Pettigrew, he is by far the best blocking Tight End we have.
And as much as I love Fauria, there is a reason he only gets 1-2 passes a game (MAX). Dude can't get open.
Ebron has a much higher ceiling than Fauria... and to get rid of the kid after playing only a few games... that is just stupid.

Is he looking like he has the skills to be a number 1 pick?

e: not number one but first round


Too soon to tell. I mean, it looks obvious at this point that it would have been better to add any of the numerous Wide Outs that blew up this year. But we will see.

At the time you guys had just signed Tate though did you? I think Ebron has the skills. I just dont like how the Lions cant seem to get the most out of their TEs.

Fauria was an undrafted free agent...

Pettigrew and Ebron both just have terrible hands.

Ebron was sick as fuck last week..he's a rookie

Pettigrew has contributed tons to the team mostly as a blocker but catching as well. He has had tons of critical third down drops though....

Ebron has such a high ceiling....

Fauria is busy tweeting about how his girlfriend cheated on him and calling her out for her fake tan lmfao

Ebron is now leading the league in both potential and ceiling level atm.

ebron had 3 catches for 28 yards how that be sick.

idk just my opinion. New era of nfl TE's need to catch.

And when i say they suck, i mean in comparison to their draft picks, and for pettigrew his contract. $4mil a year?. Sure Pettigrew is decent if we got him in the 5th round and paying him $1-2m a year, but for his expectations and how much we pay him he's a bust. If we have a value in him as a blocker, that's cool, just don't pass him the ball like ever. (not worth imo)

As for Ebron? sure can say he has potential, but i just aint seeing it. Based on what he has done this year, i have no faith in him. Would love to be proven wrong.

He was on the field like 5 snaps
Also almost every catch he had was a first down.

idk we'll see. not buying one game's decent performance.

Just as likely to go out next game and miss 5/5 catches.

Anyone think they have what it takes to win the Superbowl??

I myself think they have it all but they can't put it together game after game, like good teams do.

I really wish they would tho.

So sad but anyways,

Go lions!!
