Detroit is looking to move him during the draft. I would be ok trading 2nd on him and reuniting him with Bryce kid could the number 1wr here 

already had some up and downs injury in first year suspension year two but he went off last year.

I was very high on trying to trade for him early last year to hope pairing him back with Bryce would be good for both.  But the combination of factors with him now have me running for the hills away from the thought of bringing him here.

He finished the year real strong for the Lions, while at the same time having a few concerning off field issues.

Goff is the type of QB who can be very good, but he needs quality weapons to be at his most effective, the Lions don't have anyone good enough to step into Williams' #2 spot if they were to trade him.

So when you combine it all up, if they're actually looking to trade him, it speaks volumes of their concerns about him off the field and how that may (will) affect his play (or even availability) in the future.

What were his off field concerns? What you are saying makes sense. There has to be something more than just not wanting to pay his 5th year option.

If they dont plan to reup with him it is smart to trade him now.

2023 - gambling suspension 

2024 - PES suspension 

2024 - gun incident 

Too small a window for all that IMO.  I’d want to deal him too.

      Wr Jameson Williams ???

      1) This is their last chance to get decent draft compensation. Is that better? A team who trades for a player on an expiring contract (the 5th year option in this hypothetical) is not going to give up much. The trade is essentially for the first right to sign the player to the second contract. 2) Compensatory pick is dependent on net free agency outcome and performance. A potential, late 3rd round pick next year is not as valuable as a 2nd round pick this year. These are forward-thinking roster moves that winning franchises make. I hope that makes sense to you.

      That couldn't be any more incorrect. They can still pick up his 5th year option and then trade him next offseason.  They can still decline the option, let him walk in FA next year, and as long as he has a good season will likely bring them back a 3rd round comp.  And they could do either of the above and then still franchise tag him afterwards and then trade him for what would be a really good return, assuming he continues to progress and stay out of trouble. All of this while he's only costing them $5.4 million against the cap and trading him would only get them $3 million in cap savings. It makes zero sense to trade him this offseason unless they have serious concerns about him or unless they get a godfather offer they can't turn down.
