Superduperman Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) I'm coming off my thoughts of (moving Goff along to another team) happening a little bit and I expect the Lions' starting QB for at least the beginning of 2021 to be Goff. I just pray that they're not counting on him going forward to the point that they'd pass on a QB at 7.

I think part of the appeal of trading for Goff was so they aren't forced to reach for a QB at #7. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might want to consider that. It felt like he was throwing tighter spirals against GB with the gloves, despite the injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsthomp2007 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I think Goff is tougher than he appears...played with a broken thumb, then comes off the bench with surgically repaired thumb the next week...there is some brass there.

That does make a lot of sense. For a team that has a lot of holes and is looking 2-3 years into the future, the last thing you want to do is be forced to reach or trade up to get someone and give up everything that you gained with the Stafford trade. Carolina and Washington were both pretty aggressive in the Stafford trade offers. I have to imagine that they will be in the mix to try and grab either Wilson, Fields or Lance or someone like Darnold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s had playoff success and as mentioned by our L.A. friends he needs certain complimentary pieces which can be put in place. Fix the right side of the line. Sort out the WR situation and eliminate the need to chase a QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a part of the plan is to have Swift more involved as a pass-catcher, I'd like to add another more pure runner into the mix (especially a power option). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either the Lions legitimately like Goff or Goff doesn't have that trade value. There's really no reason this trade couldn't have morphed into a 3-team trade. Perhaps the fact that the Stafford/Goff trade was made in January? Perhaps the uncertainty surrounding Watson's availability/market, or the status of other players? A 3rd team wouldn't have to be involved in the trade for Goff to have a market at some point this offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phinsesq Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 My theory is Detroit will package together something in conjunction with what they received from the Rams for Stafford and make a play for Watson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see that happening. The team wasn't losing because of QB play. It was everything else surrounding it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
