Disagree but unless he actually decided to fight over his destination, it doesn't matter.

There's been zero indication he's planning to do that.

You think that a 33 year old NFL Quarterback has the power to request a trade but not to have input on where he’s moving his family to? 
 

Yea sure.

Very true. Supposedly Stafford's top 2 choices are the Rams and Niners but they don't or won't spend the draft capital.

Outside of that, he wants to be somewhere warm. So I guess that's good for us if you wanted him.

Gonna be brutal if we give up the #8 for him 

I feel like we will to get rid of Teddy and ask for a 2nd in return, will probably only get 3rd if it actually goes through.

Needing to dump Teddy will drive up the price we have to pay

Breer mentioned that he has a couple of teams he'd prefer but doesn't think it's likely he goes to either of them. That doesn't make me think he's got a lot of control of the process.

Throw in that we're one of seven teams said to be solidly in the discussion, and have been considered a possible favorite.

I don't know that he ends up here (gun to my head, I'd probably still say no) but I've read enough to believe it's very possible.

Not sure if that gets the deal done.

Thing about trading the number eight is that the Lions already have number seven. Packaging those two picks would give them a lot of ammo to trade up and get one of the top quarterbacks in this year's class.

Or hell, they could just say "We've got two top ten picks. Let's use them."

That is fine by me. Stafford is NOT worth the 8th pick. I expect my QB to not be in his 30s if we have to give up a top 10 pick.

Why do people keep talking as if Stafford has Watson leverage?? He doesn’t...he doesn’t wanna be part of a rebuild and the Lions know they gotta move him so they can truly rebuild...so it’s not like he demanded a trade and put the Lions in a tough spot...he’s not able to hand pick his destination

      Panthers HC Dave Canales hints at adding more weapons for QB Bryce Young

      By strato · Posted

      I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner.

      2025 Draft Re-Grades (Or, One Idiot Doubles Down)

      By Raskle · Posted

      How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.

      Who was the better HC - Rivera or McDermott?

      By Basbear · Posted

      I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
