As a Lions fan, I sincerely hope they pick Matthew Stafford and stay far, far away from Jay Cutler.

even though i don't think he's a team guy i would welcome him with open arms here in Washington over the likes of Jason Campbell..... who has been sub-par ever since he had his standout pro day as an auburn tiger

Not saying JC is a great QB or has the best attitude, but to hear through the grapevine your new coach is shopping you around before he even hits town ... that's kinda low. That's gotta make the Broncs that remain a little uneasy. Guess we'll see how this pans out for Denver over time.

Yeah Stafford is a star. It'll be great watching him self-destruct with the Lions in pressure games like he did at Georgia.

QBs in the draft this year are horrendous.

Default Dan Snyder.....

Isn't committed to Jason Campbell, who has 1 year left on his contract. I haven't heard what Zorn's thoughts are. Apparently Snyder thinks we are a franchise QB away from being a major contender. I'm a bit torn, because I think Jason Campbell has talent, and could turn out to be a very good quarterback. Jay Cutler is very talented, I've been impressed from his Vandy days. I feel he's got a great arm, and when he's on top of his game is very accurate. Who's knows if he's ready to handle the most powerful job in DC! But, I would be very interested to find out. I think we may be more than a player away, I hope Haynesworth will impact the D pass rush, although on the other end of the line we could use another rusher, in my opinion. I also hope we van get deeper on the O line as well. More later when the DRAFT Threads pop up!

He has a great arm. He has stretches where he looks amazing. But can we really call him a leader?

His teams at Vandy were average at best and the broncos under his leadership were average any way you want to cut it.

All that being said, what would you give up for him? More than a first round pick? I would give up a first round and perhaps another pick or player but not much else and thats only because he is under contract (and cheap!) for the next three years.
