Trade Down Horseshit Rumors From 2009
Hopefully this will provide some perspective to the prevarications winding their way through the "media". These are all from 2009, late in the process, before the Twittersplosion of uninformed ****tards, and it's still a confederacy of numbskulls.

Nobody can say that trading down is always dumb, losers trade down, etc... when we clearly should have moved down in 2009 instead of reaching at a position of need

Great players transcend. Stafford hasn't, even with Megatron and other suitable weapons. He's made the same boneheaded mistakes that he made at Georgia, when his team was similarly loaded. Freeman had one good season out of four. He's been sporadic: A few good games followed by complete shit games. He's been unable to put together back-to-back seasons of consistency and he's been unable to ascend in the NFL. Great players are great, regardless of coaching. Jamaal Charles is NOT a great running back on a 2-14 team because of Maurice ****ing Carthon. |

His deal expires at the end of the 2013 season. If they wanted to avoid the Franchise Tag, they should have done so before now. I think that speaks volumes at this point. Hell, even ****ing Sanchez was extended. |

I don't think Stafford is a stud QB, but we would be a hell of a lot better with him instead of the $hit show we currently have. If we drafted Geno and he turned out to be the second coming of Matt Stafford I'd be a little disappointed, but I also think we would be a playoff team. Lets also not forget the division stafford plays in is a lot tougher than ours.

Pure speculation though. I'd expect them to re-sign/restructure before the end of 2013.

Stafford has been pretty injury prone too. Throws for a lot of yards, but they just don't win a whole lot. (Gunther?) Not sure I would sink the farm into him just yet either.

I always wondered with the Lions if they would ever have cap problems after having all those high first rounders they had to pay.

If the owner is cash "rich", the cap doesn't matter. If the owner is cash "poor", or just a tight ass, the cap is in play. |
