I really think every team other than the Chiefs/Ravens should be at leas thinking about it. Agree that Jags should be putting an offer together, particularly when that #1 pick is so hyped with Lawrence. You could get him for really so much less than the Jets/Dolphins could. How much would you be happy for Steelers to give up for him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame they didn’t realise this before handing him that whopping contract Yeah, I can’t see who wants Goff with that contract, obviously you can try and restructure it, but with a potentially good QB class in the draft, with a lot of the QB needy teams picking high already. Then Watson & Stafford wanting trades. Quite a few free agents QB’s, Prescott, Trubisky, Newton, Dalton, Fitzpatrick, Brissett, not all necessarily better than Goff, but other than Dak, would cost a fraction of the price. Dont think there’s much option for a straight swap either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is we’re over our cap space and looking at ways to get Ben to play for free, who to be fair suggested it. With Haskins brought in now on 950k for the year, I fear we’re going to try and rehab him into as Watson is well out of reach. I do know one Ravens fan that said he would trade Lamar for Watson ?

I take Watson over Lamar, and Lawrence and his rookie deal over Watson and his 40 million plus cap hit in 2022 & 2023.....it does drop to a meagre 37.4 million in 2024 though ? As was proved at the Texans, as good as he is, without the supporting cast you’re still looking at a 4 win season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester Ram Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Good deal for both sides. Lions get a QB they can tank with and the picks to build around whoever they end up drafting next year/year after. Even if Rams make the playoffs and both those picks are in the 20’s/30’s, you can still pick up good receivers in that part of the draft. Let’s say they draft a QB next year, they could then put two First round WR’s while still building out other parts of team with their picks. Rams get off a QB who stinks to high heaven and get a super motivated Stafford who will finally have competence around him. Worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Glad I got my Stafford trade in early in the dynasty league ? I don’t imagine the Lions see Goff as the QB of the future, so it’ll be interesting if they still look to trade for a QB. This deal should put the Lions in a good place going forward....but it’s the Lions. A steep price to pay for the Rams, but probably worth it to dump Goffs contract. It’s funny that all the stats used to bash my man Kirk, don’t seem to apply for Stafford. Can’t win in prime time, can’t beat .500 teams, never won a play off game. Like I said before, I’m interested to see what he does with a team that is a contender, and he is under pressure to win. No doubting he’s talented, and deserves the opportunity.

Stats is not the way to go in a Cousins argument, he’s pretty much top 10 in everything, and top 5 in a lot over the last 5 years. Even Adam Patrick has changed his tune on Cousins, he still wants us to trade him though ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
