Detroit fleeced LA with this deal.

Rams feel like they’re a QB away from a super bowl. Can’t be mad at them going all-in for it.

That’s what I’m thinking.  They’re close, and Goff is so inconsistent that they’re willing to make the trade for a better QB.  33 isn’t that old for a QB.  Stafford’s started all 16 games in 9 of the last 10 seasons, so the injury things are overblown IMO.  If the Rams win a championship it’s worth it

Does this mean Detroit pass up on a qb now in the draft ? I hope so 

Yeah it definitely could mean that.

Well damn...glad we didn’t give up that much...holy hell...wonder how much of that was to offset Goff’s garbage deal

We saw a rumor a few days ago saying the Panthers should offer our 2nd and 2022 1st....if that report was true, then the Rams basically added another 1st to offset Goff contract

This goes to show that you need to build through the draft. We have a better chance of putting a similar package to move up to pick 2 or 3 instead of a 33 year old QB. Houston is paying attention to this deal, they are not settling for anything less than 3 1st rounders and multiple picks or players in addition.

After seeing this deal, anyone wanting to acquire Watson is going to have to give WAY more than this. 
 

As much as I wanted Watson here, I’m not really feeling it anymore. Not worth how much he will cost.

Rams guy who drafted Goff becomes GM of the Lions...

Lions agree to part ways with Matthew Stafford...

Honeymoon is over between the Rams and Goff...

Lions GM calls his old team...

Rams get a QB better equipped to run their system...

Lions get a former number one overall pick plus a ridiculous compensation package...

 

Wow

[GoobyPls]

Good, one step closer to getting a top 4 QB

[Scott12345]

Goff leaves sunny California and goes to that cespool in Michigan

Yep

[onmyown]

Lmao Lions are coming out great

[methodtoll]

The great news about this is that this basically confirms Lions will not draft a QB in the first round. One less team to worry about

[TheSpecialJuan]

Glad that wasn't us

Yeah and maybe a part of their play was to drive up Watson’s price so he remains in AFC with Houston

If Stafford went for a package like this, the Texans will be in position to demand a deal that involves numerous first round picks, your firstborn and your immortal soul. And that's if they even agree to trade him (which I'm not convinced they will).

There's no way I can see us making that deal now.
