As someone whose day job is in the hotel industry, this one had a soft spot in my heart. It may not be all that exciting of a name, but it perfectly incorporates the name of an up-and-coming wide receiver into a popular hotel chain’s name.
It just comes off as clever to me. Then again, as I already stated, the connection to the travel industry just gave it extra points in my book. Anyway….
If you’re not too familiar with Kenny Golladay, it may be time to learn who he is. Currently projected as the Lions’ No. 3 receiver behind Golden Tate and Marvin Jones, the second-year receiver figures to enjoy a breakout of sorts in 2018. The coaching staff has been talking him up this offseason as someone who could put up big numbers.
It’s understandable that he’s getting drafted late at this moment. However, it also suggests some serious sleeper appeal for Detroit’s 2017 third-round pick. He already flashed playmaking potential as a rookie — can Golladay carve out a role in one of the NFL’s most productive passing games in 2018?
