At the time of the trade news back in late January, many fans expressed a belief that Matthew Stafford and Jared Goff were far too close in value for the LA Rams to have traded two future first round picks to the Detroit Lions, along with their former franchise quarterback. Through their first offseason in their respective camps, both Stafford and Goff have proven that they are not equals.
The most important way for Rams fans to evaluate this question is through the presence of Stafford at training camp in Irvine this year.
