PFT points out that the Rams don't have a first round pick to offer.

Makes me think they'd have to give the Lions something else of value.

Like maybe...I dunno...

that works for the Rams...

but if you are the Lions why would you want Goff instead of picks?

I’d take next year’s first instead of Goff

Perhaps, but you're not the former college scouting director who was part of a braintrust that believed Goff was not only deserving of the number one overall pick, but also worth the additional picks that it took to trade into that spot.

The guy who does fit that description? He's GM of the Lions right now.

So the Lions are all in on getting worse? How fun!

Well again, Brad Holmes probably doesn't see it that way.

Maybe he believes a different situation and a new coaching staff will make the difference.

Also possible that having a quarterback he doesn't have to coach up so much might appeal to Sean McVay.

or maybe Detroit doesn't want Goff at all, doesn't make sense for a team looking to rebuild.  Maybe Rams find a 3rd team to take Goff.

I get why Holmes would see it that way, you make a great connection on why this could happen, it just doesn't look like a very good path to improving by trading for a worse QB with a worse contract. This just looks like a win for the Rams and the Lions one step back under 'new management'. If I was a Lions fan, I would see this as a huge downgrade.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
