Pervis_Griffith 01-24-2021, 08:13 PM You are crazy if you think QB isn’t top priority.
Totally is.
But others are right too ... we still need a lot to fill out our roster.
I know I have read the list (probably several times in various places) of true free agent QB's ... is there any like Stafford on that list?
I know it's a "have your cake and eat it to" kinda deal, but it'd be great to have a QB WITHOUT giving up draft picks.
punch it in 01-24-2021, 08:54 PM I say we offer a second and an autographed Riggins jersey.
I know that would be enough for me....
OnceWeWereKings 01-24-2021, 09:12 PM No that’s too much. I agree
that was all i was saying. i want a legit qb on our roster, but i dont want to give up the farm to get them. we have a lot of holes to fill (phrasing). so if we dont get "the guy" right now, i think the team can still benefit filling other areas of need. id love to see stafford on the squad next year, but i also want to see other areas improved if detroit demands too much.....which they very well may.
regardless, though...its going to be an interesting off season (league wide), i think.
Ohioskins 01-24-2021, 09:15 PM Another candidate for the Stafford Derby, the Saints if Brees does not return. They would probably be very attractive to Stafford because the Saints could literally be a championship caliber team in search of a QB.

They can’t afford him. They are like 100M over the cap or something The fox graphic showed last week
mooby 01-24-2021, 09:35 PM Is it ok if I secretly hope that A-Rod is still pissed about the Packers drafting Jordan Love enough for him to retire, then we lose the bidding war for Stafford and plan on going into the season with Heinicke as QB1, then after the draft is over Rodgers gets the itch to play again and pulls a Favre to get out of his deal and signs with us as a free agent? I can still dream that right?
EARTHQUAKE2689 01-24-2021, 10:31 PM Sums it up. If we get into a bidding war - hard pass. This team is not a qb away from contending, it's a qb, wr, 2nd TE, LB, and maybe a safety (if they want to do better than Jeremy Reaves at FS) away from contention.
Ok, let me ask, we won 7 games this year with basically garbage at QB, Stafford would probably take 3 of those close losses (Giants x2, just about any of the Haskins performances) and potentially make them wins, which would get us to 10 wins. Do you think a WR, TE, LB, and S could be found in the draft and FA??
If it ends up being a 1st a 3rd and like Landon Collins or something would you be in on that??

Maybe with Stafford this team wins three more games THIS year - perhaps even more...but they won't have the luxury of playing a bunch of backup QBs next year, and this division will be better. QB is the most glaring need, but definitely not the only need.
However, there's no reason to believe that they can't address WR, TE, LB, DB, and O-line in the draft and via free agency. Just can't "give up the farm" for a QB.

100%
Though I think it would likely command a 1, 3, and Jonathan Allen or Montez sweat.
Which I wouldn't be ok with.
