He would do well in our system but I don’t want to give up the 8th pick for him.

His skill set is honestly ideal for what we run.

I don't really think he's a bridge either. Most analysts think he's got at least four or five years left in him.

[Shocker]

Interesting that a deal with the Panthers includes a little incentive as they don't want us moving in front of them for QB in the draft.

most of yall are selling Stafford way short, he is an elite QB in this league and  the Panthers would be very lucky to have him. Also he will only be 33 next season thats relatively young for a QB in the NFL

we really gonna let joe Brady push us into another guy who can help him audition for a job instead of a legitimate long term answer

elite QBs can beat good teams

Lets give them Teddy ,a second rounder, and a bo biscuit .

[Captain Morgan]

This is good to hear.  Yesterday all the media speculation was on the Rams getting him.  

[Mr. Scot]

Teddy being part of the deal seems like a legit possibility given that Dan Campbell would be pretty familiar with him.

Probably not as a starter though.

when drew brees was 7-9 three years in a row or aaron rodgers went 6-9-1 did you scream that he was not an elite QB? these teams are more than their QBs its 21 other players out there that need to do their jobs. its disingenuous to judge any of these QBs solely on their record

[Madwolf]

Not a fan of trading for Stafford. May be 3 years ago. He's too old, and the cost is likely too high.

We're probably 3 years away from a Super Bowl run with good drafts, and that doesn't seem likely if we give up 1st rounders. That'd push us back to 4-5 years where Stafford will be far older and on the last legs of his carrier.

Seems like 1 QB mistake after making the initial one.

Just reviewed some stuff from Albert Breer.

Breer puts us "solidly in" the discussion, though he notes we're one of seven teams talking to the Lions right now. Said Lions brass was in Mobile this week and a lot of talk went on down there.

One thing that caught my attention: he takes the idea of Stafford going to the Panthers more seriously than he does him going to the Rams or the 49ers.

That made me

Elite qbs win playoff games as well in spite of their team. Elite hell no. Good hell yes .

I like Matt but please don’t let us do this.
