The Texans sure are smiling wide right now. If they have to move Watson, they're gonna get the biggest trade haul in NFL history.

Not sure it’s that clear.

LA gave up picks as compensation for Goff’s bad contract.

If I’m the lions, I send my two first rounders this year, my two first rounders next year, and Goff to the Texans for Watson now. 
 

 

Watson ain’t approving a trade to Detroit. No chance of that.

I wouldn’t say it confirms that at all. Less likely for sure but still possible they could draft a QB. Goff isn’t a franchise guy and I believe with the Rams still on the hook for most of the guarantees, the Lions could move on from him easily in a year or two.

I think they took Goff to get rid of the contract--so the deal was Stafford for the picks and ridding us of this bad contract.  They may not draft a QB at #8, however, because they have needs. 

Here is what I would do--you have Goff and Chase Daniel.  If Goff does not work out, NEXT year you have 2 or even 3 first rounders to move up for anyone you want.  Build around Goff and see what you have in this system--give him some weapons, etc.

They could TRADE back with the #7 pick, or even trade up--but I see them taking a WR at #8.  Chase is my guess--if there.

    • Teams do some super stupid stuff with mid-fairly good QBs. I think they are just absolutely terrified they will be stuck with a QB that is not the quality of the QB they have now, even if its someone like Daniel Jones. Lots of trash QBs go in the first round. I encourage you to take a look at the sad, sad list of first round QBs in the last 15 years.  
    • No, it will be a raw 6'7" 17-year-old European who just played basketball for the first time in March and who the idiot GM "had first on our board." He'll play the whole G-League season, get in 42 games for the Hornets and average 1.1 ppg on 35% shooting. Been there, seen that.
    • We missed on Burns at his peak value. That’s the problem with trading for picks 2-3 years away (which people were convinced the Rams would suck by now and these would be higher picks btw). Each year away the pick is the further in value it drops. Fitt was clearly hired based on turning us around quickly. It’s one of the many reasons tanking isn’t really a thing as our player JJ is telling you in this original article. It would take the whole organization from the owners down admitting they aren’t winning soon with Burns and picks 2-3 years away having more value because that’s when we are still rebuilding. It would only make sense if Fitt had a longer leash and would more than likely be the ones making these picks anyway which you wouldn’t want. The question is would you rather have those Rams picks with the strong possibility of Fitt still being here or would you rather Fitt try to “win now” like he did and expedite his firing? Altering the timeline would affect more than just the Rams picks.
