The Best of the Detroit Lions Draft Class

  5. Matthew Stafford - Selected #1 overall - 2009   Our fearless leader. Even though Stafford has had outstanding yardage in the last 2 years, he is unproven as far as a successful QB. The Lions ended last year a dismal 4-12 after coming off a 10-6 playoff run the year prior, and one must question where the blame lies. Is it with the coach, or the QB that leads them on the...

Stafford more interested in wins than money

ALLEN PARK, Mich. Human nature these days is to try to make as much money as possible. But theres a problem with that approach in the NFLs salary-cap era.

Lions, Mathew Stafford still working on an extension

According to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free-Press, it’s only a matter of time before the Lions and quarterback Mathew Stafford agree on a long-term extension.

Stafford came back in and threw the game-winning touchdown for the Lions as time expired. Now he and Mosley...
