New on SI: MMQB: Inside the Trade Negotiations That Gave Matthew Stafford and Sean McVay What They Wanted

Image
The first big offseason domino fell on the eve of a Super Bowl week. Here's how Matthew Stafford landed in L.A. and why he and his new coach are excited. It was 6:45 p.m. in Los Angeles, and 9:45 p.m. in Detroit when the Rams and Lions jumped on a six-way FaceTime call and, true to 2020 form (even if it is 2021), there were technical difficulties. L.A. inner-circlers Kevin Demoff, Les Snead and Tony Pastoors were apart and in their own separate boxes on the screen, while the Detroit brass of Rod Wood, Brad Holmes and Mike Disner were gathered in together in a meeting room on their phones. As you might imagine, the group setting on one end of Saturday night’s megadeal was causing consternation—via an annoying echo created by Lion voices showing up on each other’s phones—on the other end of the call. “Mute your mic!” said one of the guys in California. Appropriate, given the teams were about create the first mic-dropping moment of an offseason that’s coming with the promise of q...

The Rams completed a trade with the Lions to acquire quarterback Matthew Stafford on Saturday, and it didn't exactly take long for Stafford to get acquainted with Los Angeles head coach Sean McVay.  Stafford and McVay reportedly had dinner together shortly after the trade was agreed to on Saturday, according to The MMQB's Albert Breer . As the NFL world reacted to a true blockbuster deal , the new Rams' duo reportedly enjoyed dinner with Stafford’s wife Kelly and McVay’s fiancĂ©e Veronika in Los Cabos, Mexico. It's likely Stafford and McVay will dive into some film together in the coming weeks, but on Saturday, more important matters awaited.

Appropriate, given the teams were about create the first mic-dropping moment of an offseason that’s coming with the promise of quarterbacking chaos. Minutes later, the deal was done. Matthew Stafford got he wanted. Sean McVay got what he wanted. And the Lions, in an admittedly-rebuilding posture, walked away with a massive haul. First-round picks in 2022 and ‘23. A third-round pick in 2021. Likely starting quarterback for next fall, Jared Goff. A new, fresh start for Holmes and Campbell. Meanwhile, once the deal was agreed to, some 1,100 miles south of L.A., McVa...
