The Matthew Stafford-Jared Goff trade is one of the rare NFL blockbusters where both teams can claim victory. The Rams got a Super Bowl quarterback. The Lions got Jared Goff, major draft value, and the foundation for a new competitive era. Los Angeles won the immediate bet, while Detroit won the broader reset. It stands out because the Rams got the championship payoff and the Lions still turned the return into lasting roster value.
