Stacking the NFL's best rookies through 10 weeks: Three receivers in our updated top 10 (6. Sam LaPorta, TE, Detroit Lions - Stats: 47 catches, 474 yards, 4 TDs.  Drafted: No. 34 overall.  LaPorta has quickly become a reliable option for quarterback Jared Goff. LaPorta has five games with five-plus receptions and has caught 73.4% of his targets. He's also physical along the line of scrimmage, which means he gets a bigger slice of the playbook because he can play wherever the Lions need him in multiple personnel groupings. -- Legwold.  Just missed.  Brian Branch, S, Detroit Lions.  Branch has missed two games because of injuries, but he has been good enough in coverage that he isn't often tested. He limits the damage when he gives up a reception, allowing 2 yards per completion after the catch. He gives the Lions the quality nickel corner play that is a necessity in today's league, as nickel is essentially the base defense. -- Legwold.  Jahmyr Gibbs, RB, Detroit Lions.  The Lions are warming to Gibbs' potential. He has had more than 10 carries in three of his past four games -- including a 26-carry, 152-yard gem on Oct. 30 against the Raiders. He ranks 11th in the league in runs of at least 10 yards (13) and is third in receptions for the Lions with 31. He's averaging 68 rushing yards per game, which ranks sixth. -- Legwold): https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/38890027/10-best-2023-nfl-rookies-ranking-first-years-quarterbacks-cj-stroud-puka-nacua
