Injury prone? He has played 16 games every year except one in last 10 years.

Broken back, shoulder injury, ligement damage to his throwing hand.  The types of injuries he has sustained are limiting, especially for a qv of his age.

I think we will trade up---teams at the back of the draft that need QB will go after Stafford and give up a lot.  Why do I sense Indy making a deal with Detroit?  Or New England? Washington? 

Oh poo I forgot about Indy and NE.

Whelp, shelve those dreams of Stafford. He's going to a winning franchise.

Oh now it’s get near 8 wins lol, already backing out I see

Not taking an avatar bet huh?

This team can't afford to give up draft picks with so many holes to fill.

Move back in the draft and get someone like Jones and/or bring in a vet like Stafford to bridge the gap.

[Rocky Davis]

I see Indy and San Fran as two real options for Stafford. 

San Fran especially intrigues me because that team's window is now.

Y’all can get out of ur minds trading picks to move up, Fitterer definitely will not do that.

This would be Stafford's most likely move IMHO.

The Panthers have a lot of issues to address and wouldn't be an optimal choice for a QB on the backside of his career.

Not to say there isn't a case to be made for the Panthers promising to rebuilding the O line this off season to attract a QB like Stafford.

you have absolutely no point of reference for this, and it really ultimately isn't about what he does, it's about what he should do

Yeah Seattle has never traded up and I would say I’m about positive he won’t here. I think they would take who is available there and if don’t like it trade down a couple spots to get some more 2nd rd picks

[BurnNChinn]

Also we just hired Sean Ryan that was Stafford’s qb coach last two years so they going to get a lot of info about him.

I understand your view, but you can't go off of what was done in Seattle.  This is a different brain trust than the one Fitt was previously in.  I think we'll have to wait and see how our committee does things moving forward to predict future actions....

Been in the league 12 yrs already

what will it cost in a trade & in a contract?

[Rocky Davis]

To be honest, I was a little surprised that Detroit expects to get a first round pick back.  I suppose they are thinking mid to late round first.
