It is not but i am being devils advocate.
Do we try to build to a long term winner or a flash in the pan NFC east champ for a few years?
The ULTIMATE question is is Stafford the piece that pushes our needle to Super Bowl contender. My gut says no.
I rather trade a bunch of assets get Watson then build around a 25 year old stud QB. That in the short term may move us back a step where in the short term with the Stafford trade moves us forward a step or two.
Look at Tampa Bay once Brady is injured or retires they are toast. All their chips lie with him.
BUT one could argue the NFL is a NOW league and long term plans in the NFL are non existent.
If you go the Stafford route you got go find weapons to place around him that can produce now.
My overall point is Stafford alone doesn't really get us anywhere special just not in the basement where we have lived so long.
