Time for a new era in Detroit Lions Football


It's time people. I might be in the minority here but I want to see a complete and total rebuild. Personally, this team is not even close to competing. This defense has gotten so much worse under Quinn and Patricia and I won't bore you with stats as I'm sure most of you already know just how bad this defense is anyway. I would find so much more solace as a fan if the team went in to complete rebuild mode.You have several assets you could trade away for picks in the offseason. The first being Stafford. I think realistically you can get a first and third round pick for him. Next up, trade Slay at max you get a 2nd round pick for him. Now with all that draft capital you can accelerate a rebuild.

Let's start at the QB position. Look around the NFL. You have athletic mobile QB's like Lamar, Mahomes, Watson, Dak and Wentz are able to beat defenses with their arm and legs. I also believe our offense would be more dynamic with a dual threat QB since Bevell has experience coaching one previously in Seattle. He would have creative play designs to utilize the threat of his QB being able to both run and throw. Patricia has been a complete failure, Quinn is one of the worst GM's in the league and Stafford will be 32 next season coming off two major back injuries. What better time to rebuild than now?
