    People want there to be a winner/loser to a trade so bad. Sometimes motives for a trade are different. Both teams achieved their motive, and the league is better for it

      Yeah, Rams needed a QB to get them over the edge, Lions needed draft picks to rebuild. We got really lucky that Goff was also a long term solution and it sped up the rebuild a lot. Lions also weren’t going to be able to win a Super Bowl with Stafford and not the extra draft capital. Both teams are better off for the trade, nobody regrets it, nobody lost
