Lions beat writer thinks there's ZERO chance they draft Stafford
http://www.mlive.com/lions/index.ssf...show_tita.html
Click the audio link after the story and fast-forward to the 7:10 mark. Detroit Lions beat writer Tom Kowalski thinks there is ZERO chance that Stafford will be the pick, and thinks it's a "coin-flip" that they take a QB at all. According to him, the personnel guys he's spoken with feel that Stafford may end up being the 3rd QB taken if Sanchez declares. Also, Jim Schwartz is the lead candidate for the Lions HC job. Interesting listen from 7:00 on... |

He's probably just guessing like the guys around here do, I don't think the Lions would just tip their hand right away.

If this is accurate, it increases the chances we get Stafford and decreases the chances we get Sanchez.
I'd rather have Sanchez, but if I could push a button right now to lock in Stafford, I would plunge it in a minute. |

If all 3 QB's declare, there's an outside chance that they'd go 1, 2, 3.
That would be quite interesting. |

I'm betting that if Pioli is our GM we will probably trade down a few spots to pick up some more picks. We are in the perfect spot if someone wants to trade up and grab a monster LT,.

They talk about QB's going one two a lot and the other one almost always falls.

All these guys that are fawning over Pioli, then he goes and trades down, passing on a QB. The proverbial shit would definitely hit the fan... |

I think Pioli would want his Brady, and if there is any truth to Shanahan he would want his Elway/Cutler. I think Stafford or Sanchez would for sure be our pick at #3.

The one thing the Pats have always had in his time is a QB though...Bledsoe was the #1 overall and Brady was good as soon as he played and became great... After missing the playoffs this year and how they had to change their offense around I think Pioli would seriously value the QB position. |

Maybe, but not necessarily.
True, but we're talking about 3 teams with huge needs at the position. This isn't always the case. |
