"The Detroit Lions will draft former Georgia star quarterback Matthew Stafford with the No. 1 pick at the NFL draft on April 25, Pro Football Talk reported Wednesday. "
It's was so boring going 3-13 every year and knowing that we were going to get knocked out in the Zero'th round. At least it is interesting now. Will we get that win? Will the organization fold? Will Millen be re-hired? So exciting.
I disagree. When we would go 3-13, at least I knew we had a 19% chance of winning. Now I don't even get my hopes up.
They reported it Wednesday (today). This is the article I got it from. Lions reportedly will draft QB Stafford No. 1 - NFL- nbcsports.msnbc.com
I'm sorry. I got wrapped up in a murder case at work and forgot what day of the week it was. :dizzy2: I don't know how I feel about this if it's true. It's exciting to get a quarterback but we have been down this road before. Based on the last 50 years, I'm going to assume it's just another bad move until they prove me wrong.

Did you see Hoss and Ben Cartwright too? What's up with those 60's tv shows anyways? Nobody was married. Matt Dillion. Mr. Cartwright. Hoss. The Rifleman. Andy Griffith, The Professor. ...

He also has the production to back it up after winning WAC co-Defensive Player of the Year in 2008. - This guy seems a little lite to start but as a DE I like him.
It could be a safe pick. There are a lot of OT in this year's draft, but Jason Smith is a converted TE and is now the best offensive tackle in the draft? Oh well. Good Luck Lions Fans. PS. NFL must do something about the amount of money that is handed out to the 10 players that are chosen in the top 10. It's ridiculous in this economy state.
Hey, since Pats are in another conference, do you think Belichik would lend us access to his video library? lol
Part of the Lions interview process with Matthew Stafford... Lions coach: "What were your final grades in college your last semester." Stafford: "Coach, I got four "Fs" and a "D". Lions coach: "Sounds like you spend too much time on one subject."
