How about Carr and one of our 1st round picks. Or go to Miami, they cut Fitzpatrick, and we sign Fitz to battle it out with Carr. There is hope for my season yet.

BayRaider Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Stafford is a solid Top 10-11 QB imo. But he’s not a good fit for a WCO... Lions would be smart to trade him though. Pick Tua at 3rd, who in my opinion will be better than Stafford, and Derrick Brown at 6 via Chargers? What amazing value. Chargers would also get a Top 10 QB with a win-now roster. Win-win for both teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chali21 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 I think Stafford is the most underrated QB. He’s great but has had the misfortune of playing in Detroit. Honestly if the Raiders traded for him i wouldn’t even be mad he’s an upgrade and he’s young enough to stick around awhile. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_palooka Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 I've always love Stafford. I think he can play in any offense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steins Gate Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 I hope we get Stafford. He could become our next Gannon. Hopefully the asking price isn't too high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. hes got a strong arm so a lot of people think he needs to be in a vertical passing game. This isn’t entirely true because he’s seen success in short passing offenses as well. Honestly he just produces offense even without a #1 WR as evidenced by his post CJ Career. Put him on this team and I think they compete easily with KC. His only knock however is his health. He’s missed quite a bit of time over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame, because I agree. I think Stafford protected well could really do great things with Gruden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He missed half of this past season but started all 16 games for eight years in a row before that. He’s one of the most durable guys in the league.

BayRaider Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Scary thing is, Stafford has never had a legit run game in his 12 year career. And never a Top 5 OL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HE was probably getting a feel for Stafford's value and someone leaked it as they are trying to trade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sorry i must have been thinking about someone else. He’s been very good for them and would be far and away the best player on this market.

That would be a bitter pill to swallow but it is only dead cap. I believe all the real money has already been paid. Cap would take a huge hit next year but if you are going with a rookie QB (Tua) and you believe he is better it is a $15-17 million increase in cap for 1 year. 2021 the cap number would drastically fall from $33 to around $7. Real cash is increased by the rookie contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
