Lions negotiate with Stafford and who else?

NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.
It is official, well, sort of anyway, the Lions have been negotiating with Matt Stafford for two days, but no deal has been signed.

Stafford told ESPN he was deep into contract talks with the Lions and thought they were going well, but he denied reports he had told people going to Detroit was a “done deal.” He also said he knew the Lions had another deal going with another player.

Now here is the secret part. Are you paying attention? The rumor is that the Lions are also negotiating with Aaron Curry, because they need defense and he said he would take less money than Miami gave Jake Long last year.

Will Matt sign in time?

So, if Matt Stafford does not sign soon, he may find himself losing a ton of money. Why? If the Lions sign Aaron Curry, the rumor is that there are a lot of general managers that have Mark Sanchez rated over Matt Stafford and Stafford could fall all the way to pick 10 with San Francisco.

But all that aside, the Lions are trying to sign someone before the Saturday draft.
