- Amazing! I think any franchise would take that—give up 18 1st riders for 3 championships over 21 years -- nm - Flavorize Jan 31, 10:15
- I'm just wondering if this is an argument in favor of the Stafford trade :) -- nm - crash davis Jan 31, 10:11 8
  - I mean, you see people saying, the Rams won't have a pick till 2024!!!!!! - Will Hunting Jan 31, 10:16 7
    - Their last two first round picks before Goff were Aaron Douglas and Todd Gurley. They should want more picks, not less. -- nm - David, Horny New Guy Jan 31, 11:06 4
      - And the 7 before those 2 were not good - Will Hunting Jan 31, 11:18 3
        
        Wha? Brockers and Quinn in 2011 and 2012 were great picks. - David Jan 31, 11:31 2
        
        You can't make a pro bowl, you ain't top 15 pick good. By the time the game starts, like 15% of the league has been invited. - Will Hunting Jan 31, 11:43 1
        
        If you draft a dude who starts for nine years in the NFL, you've done extremely well. You're having a Bacon discussion about this trade. -- nm - David Jan 31, 12:08
    - Looking at the head coach longevity from the other day, it becomes clear that a franchise QB is the most important decision. Stafford does give them - crash davis Jan 31, 10:20 1
      - They gave Detroit multiple 20+ 1st rounders... - Will Hunting Jan 31, 10:38
During that period of time, they were good, very good. And all three of those picks hit. -- nm - crash davis Jan 31, 10:06
