The Why for 29 Adonai Mitchell

The Lions need a X WR and you could argue they need a proven WR with Amon Ra as well. While JAMO has shown flashes he hasn't even had 400 yards in a season yet. The Lions need to ensure that Amon Ra and LaPorta aren't the only reliable options for Goff to throw to next season. Even if JAMO breaks out Mitchell would only make the Lions offense more dangerous. Mitchell was a part of a good Texas team he had over 800 yards and 11 touchdown catches.

While Mitchell's teammate Xavier Worthy stole the show with his record-breaking 40 time Adonai had himself a near-perfect combine where he scored a 9.99 RAS grade and had his own good 40 time. Mitchell could be elite at the next level with his elite athletic ability and to boot Mitchell may just be the only guy who can compete with OSU's Marvin Harrison Jr for best route runner in the class. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNb5CnSmCPI&pp=ygUaYWRvbmFpIG1pdGNoZWxsIGhpZ2hsaWdodHM%3D Mitchell showcases speed and some awesome catches to pair with his route running. https://fxtwitter.com/SpanningTheLoeb/status/1732110620500070900?s=20 also had 1 drop this past season. Mitchell has good route running, size, athletic ability, and consistent hands. Why wouldn't you draft him?
