15-year NFL GM Charlie Casserly, on what he'd give for Stafford

“I’d give them a (1st round pick). I’d give them a (2nd round pick) next year. And I wouldn’t even think twice about doing that,” Casserly said on NFL Network Friday afternoon.

Wouldn’t hesitate to give up a 1st this year and a 2nd next year. If he wouldn’t hesitate to do that, that means he’d give more if push came to shove.

They would both be in their conference championship games with him at the helm. Their first round picks will not have that kind of impact. They literally should be outbidding each other.

It’s fun to finally be on the team that has the super hot commodity when we desperately need draft capital.

Seems light to me. I thought they’d get more.

Natty, he said a 1 this year and 2 next year. Didn’t know casserly spoke as quickly as an auctioneer.

He also said that Stafford was staying.

He’s still more qualified than literally any user on this forum ever. Even the guy who talked to Jon.

We need more than that. 1st and 3rd this year 2nd and 3rd next year. You got a QB who could win you a superbowl. I need picks

I am not sure how many teams you were referring beyond that, but I’m glad you were particular. If I’m the Jets I am not looking at Matt Stafford unless I doubt my abilities and need to fake it for a few years while I find my footing. That comparison applies to some other teams. But if I am the 49ers or Colts I am looking at what might be the difference between a Super Bowl and something less.

Yep, I just thought it was interesting that he commented on Stafford when he literally never does/has,(to my knowledge anyway), was wrong, and then comes right back and talks about it again.

Or we could just trade him for Kaepernick straight up…

This is likely the ante to the hand. Betting starts after that…

Ahhh - remembering the good ol’ days when some dudes thought a 1st and a 2nd was too much to give up for Stafford.

:wink:

Dear McVay, if you like good deals then I have this classic sports car that I’d let go for 80k to the general public but to you, since you my homie and all, I’d take 75k.
Sincerely,
Holmes

Hopefully we’ll get some early returns this year.

Casserly was way off. We only got a 3rd round pick for Stafford. The Rams threw in two 1st round picks for taking Goff. We could have kept Stafford and just took on Goff and they would have thrown use 1st round picks for our troubles. Holmes screwed up! :joy:
