Considered the most NFL-ready quarterback in the 2009 draft, Stafford was the unquestioned leader of the Bulldogs offense since taking over the starting signal-caller duties as a freshman... Blessed with top arm strength, Stafford has a compact and quick delivery that allows him to get the ball off on time. He is the classic drop-back passer who gets proper depth and shows good footwork dropping back from center to efficiently scan the field and locate his open target... The Lions have options at quarterback, so Stafford might not start immediately. His preseason debut featured a pick 6 and Drew Stanton continues to succeed (2 TD, 0 INT) in the warm up to his 3rd season.
