There was no chance we were getting Stafford. He was the consensus #1 and Detroit wanted him bad.

He could have grabbed Sanchez at best, but eh...he wasn't the same type of prospect as Stafford by any means.

They were trying to trade the pick for a long time. If we would not have gave up our 2nd for Cassel/Vrabel, our #3 and our 2nd rounder might have moved us up to #1 overall. We will never know though, so it is useless to argue over.

I'm pretty sure a second rounder isn't a draft position point value to move up from #3 to #1 in the first round.

Pretty much everyone said the chart was out last year. And if you look at the trades that happened, that was the case. Yes, the chart was off by 230 points on the trade, but we didn't have the pick to make a trade with anyway since it went early for Cassel/Vrabel.
