    I'll bet anybody that the Lions dont take Stafford first tomorrow. My money is on a OT or Curry the LB.

    exactly, you remember the brees to antonio gates connection, could be the same mold. that combination won me my first fantasy football championship, and i picked them both up as free agents in the 4th week of that season.

    im hearing alot of things about the lions not wanting to pay the pricetag. i wouldnt want too either. rookies get paid entirely too much.

    Who here wonders whether or not Stafford will pan out in the NFL? I have serious doubts.

    these are easy. almost everyone is a bust from the draft. 20% pan out at best i suppose.


    its much harder to list who is going to pan out.

    Okay, that's absolutely true. But I don't think Stafford is anywhere close to warranting the possible #1 overall pick. I've been watching this kid since he played at Highland Park in Dallas. I never thought he was as good as Chase Daniel, for example, even when he was playing high school ball.

    So, Matt Ryan surprised, and you can color me stupid if Stafford is another Ryan.

    Stafford to Lions

    6yr/78M

    41.7M Guaranteed


    That is 6M more guaranteed than Ryan and 9M more than Russell.
