Matt Stafford?
NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports Matthew Stafford's Lions future beyond 2015 is "very much in doubt."
https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/662329766633193472 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. http://www.rotoworld.com/sports/nfl/football |

We can agree on that. Luck, even in year 3, is about as coachable as could be. He's got everything you'd want in a QB. The size, confidence, the arm, the speed, and the durability. He can be taught to get rid of the ball quicker and be more selective with his risky passes. I'm not sure Stafford even wants to change. |

Stafford sucks.
He's a 3% better than Kyle Boller QB. Huge arm that can't read defenses and doesn't have the personal drive to work on his flaws, which, to this point have been greatly exacerbated. And without Megatron? Remember Dante Culpepper and Randy Moss? Same shit. |

Draft one until you hit. I'm sick and tired of living on retreads and getting nowhere.

at least they try. We don't even consider it.

You don't get special points for trying.

We have a history of passing on first round talent when they ARE there.
