What about Bob?

More hints that the Lions are poised to make Georgia quarterback Matthew Stafford the No. 1 overall pick on Saturday:

Our Motor City buddy Mike O'Hara of Detroit News fame fills us in on the latest. In an interview on a Detroit radio station Tuesday afternoon, Stafford appeared on the Mitch (Tuesdays with Morry) Albom on WJR-760 and was asked what kind of car he drives. Stafford told Albom he drives a Chevy Tahoe.

"I’m probably going to have to trade that one out for a Ford,” Stafford added quickly.
The Lions are owned by William Clay Ford, the grandson of Ford Motor Co. founder Henry Ford.

Stafford says he doesn't mind being drafted by a team that last year became the first to go 0-16.

"I’m a competitive guy, and I love challenge,” he said. “I don’t think the Lions are that far off. Hopefully, if I come in, I can help turn things around I watched them a lot this year. What were they leading – five games in a row in the second half of games? They could easily have won five of those games and nobody’s talking about them.“It’s just an attitude change. I like the new head coach and all the guys there.”
