I agree with wasting it on Griffin, but as for Savage, OB probably didn't use it on him because he knows Savage is nothing more than another wasted draft pick.

Lions are out from under his guaranteed money, and he'd be a very valuable trade chip.

The future beyond 2015 for #Lions QB Matthew Stafford is very much in doubt, as I understand it.
I know there will some against this, but just posting it as another option if the Texans somehow manage to end up in the middle of RD1 and out of striking distance for one of the top rookie QBs. A #2 for Stafford is a gamble I'd likely make.

Make it a 3rd and I could get behind it. He'd still be playing under his Lions contract, right? And, IIRC, he signed for a contract on promise, not production, so it is pretty steep.

Still, he's a Texas product with a strong arm and you can't blame a QB from bombing in Detroit any more than you can blame a pitcher for bombing in Colorado.

Hey, if we could package Stafford and Megatron without giving up Hopkins or Watt, I could really get behind that.

Thinking that they were playing the odds. Likelihood that the QB3 will ever see the field is statically small. Especially vs. the starting TE.

Guessing he really did believe in the QB situation more than any other human being ........
