With a contract extension looming in the near future and an untested rookie Hendon Hooker waiting in the wings, would you trade Goff in the offseason for a mid-to-late 1st round pick?
If we extend him and have to pay him we’re probably looking at being married to him for another 4 years at $40-45 million/year.
If we don’t extend him we’re rolling the dice on a 26 or 27 year old rookie QB who played in a weird college offense, but would have money to sign our other players at least until 2028 when Hooker’s rookie contract ends, assuming that he’s the answer. If Hooker is not the answer, then we enter quarterback purgatory in 2024. Prior to drafting Stafford in 2024, the Lions suffered a decades’ long cycle of quarterback suckage and mediocrity newer fans may not remember. Do we want to risk that when we could resign Goff?

Hard, a lot of the fanbase just can’t accept reality. How many Fire AG Fire AG threads do we need, the personnel is a problem on the D and it’s not going to get better this season. We didn’t make any trades the deadlines been over a month, you got to live with it now and move on. This team has a plateau we are clearly a class below the Eagles, Cowboys and 49ers.
