Lions shopping Stafford. Perfect trade partner

[cltchperf]

He's been beat up and looks like a 50 year old now.

He's also not a top 10 qb, he's way too sporadic to be a top 10 qb.

This was my first thought.
Tua needs to improve and we need a pass rush.

Agree on both, but needed that even before the thought of this. Stafford in NE makes a lot of sense for them, as I don't think Belichick would want a full rebuild at his age. Although Stafford in Indy makes the most sense as far as a team ready.

 

[hoops]

They would definitely have to find some weapons. Patriots are a threat to get him, but there are better options for Stafford if those teams are interested.

Colts
49ers
Panthers
Washington
Broncos
Saints (cap issues)
Rams (Goff holds them back)

that’s true but I think that patriots mystique is gonna carry weight with some competent vet

 

[artdnj]

I'm not worried about the Pats, he's no Brady

 

[Blake the great]

Damn, imagine if Jets trade for Watson and the Patriots trade for Rodgers

He's under contract through 2023. He's not being traded. Rodgers certainly wasn't a threat yesterday.

I´d take Stafford for sure, he has at least 5 good years left, having #3 overall pick most be very appealing if they want to take a high prospect, we might even keep TUA if they want to, Miami gets Stafford and #7 pick, Lions get #3 and #18 picks.

He's been beat up and looks like a 50 year old now.

it doesn’t matter what he looks like...Brady looks like a model for yeast infection medication. The only thing that matters is how many years of good football does he have left?

 

[Riley2bm]

Lol. If the Lions seriously think they're getting a 1st round draft pick for Stafford, they're dreaming. The guy is 33 years old and has missed considerable time with numerous injuries. A 3rd rounder is the most the Lions will get...

Shut up. Like you watch the Lions

 

[Riley2bm]

I so wouldn't, the guy can't finish a season, not going to start to any time soon. Would love to see the Cheats trade away #15 for him.

Oh

 

[Riley2bm]

If any decent QB has been wasted on a team the last decade its Stafford.

I’m new here but this is the smartest thing I’ve read so far

 

[Riley2bm]

He's under contract through 2023. He's not being traded. Rodgers certainly wasn't a threat yesterday.

But he’s the MVP of the league..

 

[D33PB0MBz_305]

No Stafford please !!! He's above average in over a decade of watching him play. Not a more overrated QB in the NFL than this guy, Kirk Cousins and Dakota Prescott. Tua is our guy, 110%.

 

[Finsup4ever]

Stafford in Miami? Lol, heck no! I like Stafford, feel he is underrated, and hope he goes somewhere with a chance to win. However, not Miami. If we are trading for a QB, then go all out for Watson. I would rather trade (3) 1st for Watson than (1) 1at for Stafford. Give me the 10+ year guy over the 3- 5 year guy.

 

[Ray R]

I don't see Grier and Flo wanting a veteran QB atop a young team. Watson is young, but Stafford isn't. We'd have to get a sweet deal to make that happen.

Our FO seems to be pretty good at generating sweet deals for our team.
