Three reasons why Titus Young will become a fan favorite

Three reasons rookie WR Titus Young will become a fan favorite:

1. He’s SO excited to be coming to Detroit. Even though he’s from Los Angeles his mom grew up in Detroit and he still has family here. The day of the draft he could hardly contain himself. Months later at the player workouts the enthusiasm remained. He made his way from California to the players’ workouts to get a jump on learning the offense.

2. He’s a speedster who will add new dimension to the Lions’ passing game.

3. He can catch the ball. He has good hands for such a skinny guy and looked good catching passes from Matthew Stafford. Of course there was no defense on the field.

(Follow me on Twitter @PaulaPasche. Will offer daily lists of threes through July 22. Tell your friends. Let me know if you agree or not.)

Glad we didn't draft a WR in the second round who can't catch the ball and who is slow. Shouldn't this post be entitled "1 Reason Why Lions Fans Will Love Titus Young"? (Honestly not trying to be hypercritical, just saying that those are two pretty obvious reasons why fans would love ANY player.)
