STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

High-priority TE5 target in high-scoring Lions offense

Sam LaPorta is a high-priority target and TE5, expected to benefit from a high-scoring Lions offense, a weak secondary, and positive touchdown regression. The source is drafting him heavily, citing his health and his role as a primary or secondary read in a scheme that prioritizes tight ends, including his versatility in 12 personnel. He is considered a benchmark for elite tight end production.
