This week, the guys discuss the Lions blockbuster trade with the Los Angeles Rams of sending Matthew Stafford to L.A. and acquiring Jared Goff, a 2021 3rd round pick, a 2022 1st round pick, and a 2023 1st round pick from all angles.

  • Trade discussions heated up on Saturday
  • Multiple offers were on the table and a deal was reportedly close to being done
  • Rams increased their offer to Jared Goff, a 2021 3rd round pick, a 2022 1st round pick, and a 2023 1st round pick — and the Lions pounced

  • Goff released a statement thanking L.A. and expressed excitement over heading to Detroit
  • Trading for Jared Goff gives the Lions a starter level QB and a potential bridge to the future
