Detroit Lions should trade 2009 #1 pick to Broncos for Jay Cutler !!
Monday, March 2nd, 2009
The above picture is funny (not really) but on a serious note, I have not gotten word on the following scenario but I will play GM for a second and suggest that the Detroit Lions use the number 1 pick in the 2009 draft to trade the Denver Broncos for QB Jay Cutler. The deal makes sense (cents) on a few levels. It would be a great pick up for the Lions as they would get a better QB in Cutler than they would drafting one. They are currently rumored to like University of Georgia QB Matt Safford but if they take him at 1 they will be paying an unproven player more money than a young Pro-Bowler (Cutler) with much of it guaranteed in the form of a signing bonus. The first QB taken could possibly look to get Matt Ryan money or more (but they aren’t Matt Ryan). There are some talented QB’ in this draft but none of them in my opinion will be a Matt Ryan an Eli Manning or a Jake Cutler., so why pay them like one or more ! Can you imagine the excitement Detroit Fans would get (and they deserve it) watching Jay Cutler throw to the best WR in football (sorry Fitz) Calvin Johnson, for the next 10 seasons. The duo could be legendary, and while the Lions try and get their mess of an 0-16 season season back on track, put on a show that’s entertaining, at least.
