Matt Stafford?
 
NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports Matthew Stafford's Lions future beyond 2015 is "very much in doubt."

Lions fired GM Martin Mayhew and team president Tom Lewand.

There has been no word on the status of coach Jim Caldwell, who is also on the hot seat. Mayhew took over GM duties during the Lions' 0-16 2008 campaign. He drafted Matthew Stafford as the first overall pick in 2009 and landed Ndamukong Suh in the first round a year later. Mayhew's more recent selections, such as Kyle Van Noy in the second round a year ago and Darius Slay in 2013, have not fared as well, and the departure of Suh and 2011 first-round pick Nick Fairley in free agency this offseason left the defense lacking talent. Despite the struggles this year, the Lions made the playoffs twice in Mayhew's tenure, the only two playoff berths for the franchise since 1999. With the man who drafted him now out of the picture, Stafford's future with the team is uncertain. He is owed a $17 million base salary next season, and Detroit could save $11.5 million against the 2016 cap by moving him.

Stafford would have cap hits of $17M and $16.5M for the next two years since Detroit would have to eat his signing bonus.

I highly doubt the Chiefs swap Smith for Stafford.

Andy already has his guy.

We have Bray.

Younger. Stronger Arm. Cheaper. Better.

Can he run Kubiak's offense and all of a sudden turn smart? I dunno.

Matt Stafford?
 
He sucks.

He's probably got the best arm talent in the league but his footwork is horrid as it's always been. He seems to have no desire to work toward fixing it. Plus he obviously has trouble reading defenses.

You also have to wonder how much of his success, when he was having it, could be attributed to having a top 5 of all time WR.

Stafford has better weapons and still looked worse than Alex Smith

Neither team has a good Oline

Detroit's offensive line is worse than ours....and that's saying something. Their OGs are young and have the upside....but those OTs ****ing suck.

Yea, but an elite QB like Stafford shouldn't let poor Oline play effect his production. That is the CP rule, isn't it? Smith on the other hand is the shittiest QB in the history of the NFL.

Stafford isn't elite.

andy reid is such an idiot

KC_Lee 11-05-2015 01:04 PM

How about this crazy plan; stop picking up other failed 1.1 pick QBs and drafting our own QB around 1.15 to 1.20???

I know that's crazy talk but desperate times call for desperate measures.
