I tried looking up 2009 NFL draft prospects today, came accross this mock draft.

Has the Lions taking strong armed QB Matt Stafford 1st overall.
Has the Chiefs taking Sam Bradford 3rd. Hard to say QB has been an achilles heel for the Chiefs forever and Bradford could be a good one. But man....10 sacks all year...that defence needs a pass rushing presence in a really bad way. |
"The Lions won't win for 50 years" Bobby Layne in 1958 after being traded after injury and upon leaving the Lions offices.
Matthew Stafford graduated from the same high school as Bobby Layne. 50 years is up.
It's destiny.
