Baseball may have a hot stove, but when the NFL puts a sale sticker on a franchise quarterback, the whole kitchen turns into a gas leak meeting a BIC lighter in the hand of a nicotine addict.
Long-time Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford is on the block, and the bidding could get fierce if teams have the stomach for his price. That price is more than likely to include a first round draft pick; I don’t think it’ll include a second first rounder, just given Stafford’s age and the years left on his contract. It could be packaged with later rounds, future years, potentially even existing personnel on NFL rosters.
