Brandon Lloyd Christmas Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 what i havent seen discussed yet is if the lions do not take stafford, who does? draft order lions rams: have bulger cheifs: have cassel seahawks: have hasselbeck browns: have anderson/quinn bengals: have palmer raiders: have russell jags are the first team that needs a QB and i could see them taking one. but after that packers: have rodgers 49ers: have hill and seem committed to him, plus alex smith is still being paid like woah bills: committed to edwards and cant have a rookie with TO there then its broncos then us. if the broncos do want a QB they get one before us, but mccdaniels will have to be sold on him, and they now have orton who isnt the answer. its just strange to think that stafford could end up on the jags if the lions pass. although if they still take stafford, no way we get sanchez without a trade up.

Redskins:Victory_or_Death Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 The word out of Detroit is weird ... no ongoing negotiations started yet ...As usual...wrong: http://nfl.fanhouse.com/2009/04/18/report-lions-open-negotiations-with-stafford-smith-curry/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PROSCOUT Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Okay. I know a guy. Here is what is going on. Vinnie has talked to the Lions. On draft day, the Lions will draft Orakpo. Then they will trade Orakpo to the Skins for Jason Campbell, Fred Davis, Heyer, and the 13th pick in the draft. This looks like its already set and should go down immediately after the commissioner throws out the first ball and yells "play ball". The only other thing I know is that Matt Millen is still involved, behind the scenes, and he has approved this trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmman848 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I think trading campbell to aqquire sanchez is a huge risk-- we know campbell has potential he's just never performed to the max IMO--- sanchez is defineatly a roll of the dice--- if he starts and is a "bust" we are set back another 3 years at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregpeck99 Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 As usual...wrong: http://nfl.fanhouse.com/2009/04/18/report-lions-open-negotiations-with-stafford-smith-curry/ They may have had "preliminary" discussions ... but they sure ain't negotiating ... how can they be? Tom Condon reps both Stafford and Smith. Stafford on Friday NFLNet admitted he hadn't heard anything "concrete" from the Lions. Do you believe everything you read? Last year at this time Jake Long already was signed, sealed and delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregpeck99 Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 no way we get sanchez without a trade up. Bingo! As for Stafford, my guess is that he will be "Brady Quinn-ed" when the Lions trade out of No. 1 ... and finally selected by the Jets at 17 or Lions at 20.
