The Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Rams have agreed to an unprecedented trade of former No. 1 overall draft picks. The Lions are shipping QB Matthew Stafford to the Rams for QB Jared Goff and three draft picks, including two future first-rounders.
The trade cannot be made official until the new NFL league year kicks off on March 17th. However, it’s difficult to see the trade falling apart between now and then given the relationship between Lions GM Brad Holmes and the Rams, where he worked for the last 15-plus years.
