Sllim Pickens Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Well I love getting multiple 1sts, and hope the third is this year. Not sure Goff has much value in this deal but it does suck not getting a 1st this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They add 1sts the next two years. Solid for the rebuild!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superduperman Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 I'd still look really hard at drafting a qb at #7 and having Goff to be your vet qb until the new guy's ready 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sllim Pickens Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 What are we on the hook for with Goffs contract? That’s the only potential downside IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HashtagFTW Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Am I wrong here? we are responsible for salary only and sign on bonus / dead cap is all LA? So you take his cap hit and subtract dead money and that’s our Cap hit? https://overthecap.com/player/jared-goff/4714/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They likely will be late 1sts which sucks but still nice having multiple 1st for the first time since we traded Roy Williams. And if the other offers really were multiple 2nds and 3rds, this is definitely better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knows the player he's getting. 2021- #7, two 3rds 2022- 2 1sts, possible comp picks?!? 2023- 2 1sts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louis Friend Posted January 31, 2021 Author Share Posted January 31, 2021 Just now, HashtagFTW said: Does Jared Goff suck or something? Why aren’t we happy that we got two firsts and a starting QB? He's not a top QB, but he's solid. He and McVay didn't see eye to eye, but Homes knows the player he just got. Add the draft picks and this was an amazing trade for the Lions.
