The draft hasn’t even begun, but already the second-guessing of the No. 1 pick is underway.
Tom Curran says the Lions will regret choosing Georgia QB Matthew Stafford, who’s inked a 6-year, $41 million deal but whom he predicts will suffer the same fate as David Carr.
Says super agent Leigh Steinberg:
“Developing a quarterback is a slow and methodical process and usually the team that selects a quarterback No. 1 has the fewest tools to provide to that player. So when a quarterback is least able to mentally withstand the pressure on and off the field, he is facing the situation at its worst.”
