2024-2025 Season Studs n Duds

Agree.

If Stafford had been on a team like the Patriots in his early days, he would be wearing multiple SB rings. I only really got to seem him play VS the Packers and maybe a Thanksgiving Game or 8, and he always seemed to be a really good QB with Detroit. However, even a FHOF QB like Stafford can't make good wine out of moldy grapes.

I actually was happy to seem him traded out of the NFC North, but Goth is no slouch either. The trade ended up being a great thing for both players. Giving each guy a new start to their careers, that seemed to have been going downhill with the teams that originally had drafted them at #1. I think the Lions ended up on the positive end and its possible what kick started their climb to the top.

• QB Jared Goff
• CB Ifeatu Melifonwu (2021 third-round pick)
• WR Jameson Williams (2022 first-round pick)
• DL Josh Paschal (2022 second-round pick)
• RB Jahmyr Gibbs (2023 first-round pick)
• TE Sam LaPorta (2023 second-round pick)
• DT Brodric Martin (2023 third-round pick)

Rams received:

• QB Matthew Stafford

Yes, the Lions got a great deal. Think of all those years and all the decades. At least the Vikings made it to 4 SBs. They actually show 1950s videos on You Tube of the Lions with Bobby Layne at QB to get Lions fans in the mood for a title.

If the Lions win a SB they will have for sure won the trade…until that happens though, I feel a wash at best is all one could say for the trade - Rams got a SB
