NFL Trade Verdict

Detroit Lions Win

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired Matthew Stafford from Detroit Lions for Jared Goff, 2021 3rd round pick (101st overall, Ifeatu Melifonwu), 2022 1st round pick (32nd overall subsequently traded, Lewis Cine) and 2023 1st round pick (6th overall subsequently traded, Paris Johnson). Hindsight favors the Rams side because the acquired value, role, or draft outcome carried more weight than the outgoing package.
