Detroit Lions – Vegas Odds: +650

As much as I like the idea of Lamar on the Falcons, it doesn’t even come close to the amount of excitement I feel imagining him in a Lions uniform. The Lions became the darlings of the NFL last season thanks to an exciting offense and an ever-likable head coach in Dan Campbell.

Detroit had an incredible offense last season with Jared Goff at the helm. Now think of what they could do with Lamar. They finished top-five in points per game last season, thanks to a strong offensive line and a bevy of talented skill position players.

If traded to the Lions, Lamar would be playing with Amon-Ra St. Brown, DeAndre Swift, David Montgomery, Jameson Williams, and many more. The Lions do need help on the defensive side of the ball, but a Lamar-led Lions attack would be nightmare fuel for all 31 opposing NFL defenses.

Sign me up for Lamar Jackson in those beautiful blue jerseys a hundred times out of a hundred. To me, this is my dream landing spot for Lamar. They’ve got the best combo of coaching, young talent, and skill position players to help Lamar dominate the league for the next decade.

I mean, just look at it. It’s beautiful.
