What's his path to the starting job? If they extend Goff, it's because they expect him to be the starter for the forseeable future, 2-3 years at least. So then Hooker's taking over the reigns as a first time starter at 30?

Anytime our city has that kind of talent in the minors or waiting as a backup we're always chomping at the bit. Its really great.
F#*K OHIO!!!

Two key things that continue to resonate to me about Holmes and what he brings to this Lions team - smartly acquiring/developing talent, and building depth. This lions team used to be so thin that losing a key starter to injury would derail a season. Not the case anymore.Got Kneecaps?

On 97.1, every so often someone will call in and insist that the Lions should let Goff go so they can start Hooker. The hosts universally do their best to dissuade the, um, misguided caller, but I don't know why they even entertain the call at this point.
I agree, though, it is nice that we have someone at backup QB that might actually be good and inexpensive. Goff has been an ironman to this point, but realistically most teams need a backup to play a few games and give you a chance to win.

Fuller would be really nice would much prefer him over Gilmore.
Clowney would be interesting if you think the bounce back is real.2012 Detroit Lions Draft: 1) Cordy Glenn G , 2) Brandon Taylor S, 3) Sean Spence olb, 4) Joe Adams WR/KR, 5) Matt McCants OT, 7a) B.J. Coleman QB 7b) Kewshan Martin WR
