He had two years left on his rookie deal. They added 4 years to it with 70 mil in new money. which is a good deal for both sides.

Eagles claim ex-Lions RB Kerryon Johnson off waivers
5 rbs on phillys roster... good luck kerryon! My money is on him getting cut again this off season.
Jamaal Williams reveals why he 'can't wait' to play with QB Jared Goff
And no its not "because I think he's no good so I get to run more" though I think that would be funny.

Goff is such a wild card in 2021. Well, the entire offense is, but Goff especially. We want from somewhat of a question mark in Stafford to a giant question mark in JG. He's been really good and he's been pretty bad......which one are we getting?
Agreed...ive seen REALLY good and REALLY bad. It sounds like Anthony Lynn and him are working collaboratively to install an offense so hopefully in the end its something he feels comfortable with and we get the good Goff. More than likely a stark contrast from the my way or highway approach Mcvay took in the past...although i saw this weekend hes working "collaboratively" with Stafford to put the offense together so maybe he learned from his mistakes.

Goff being a good QB for 4 years would make this one of the greatest trades of all time
The guy went number 1 overall for a reason. There is plenty of talent there. He is still pretty young QB experience wise too.
We'll see if they finally get some semblance of a running game or even a good running game with this Oline and Swift/Williams plus Anthony Lynn. Hock and Fells can block too.
Lions WRs are better than 2020. We'll see if the speed works out and if they stay healthy (Williams) and if the rookie St. Brown can do anything. Having Hock and Swift too helps greatly in passing game too. Lots of options to spread it around and defenses won't know where it is going. Can get a number 1 WR in 2022 draft as well with two choices.
Your top QB, top RB and top WR (Marvin) are all gone and replaced by new people....
Im a little confused on how OTAs is going to work but i get the sense its limited this year with Lions opting out. So thats less time on the field together before the season. I think its going to be tough...for a lot of teams not just the lions. But literally every facet of the offense is new including the players. We're not going to know what we got until like week 6. I dont know if you can say right now that Aman Ra and Tyrell Williams is better than MArvin Jones and Amendola....i dont think thats true.
In theory our oline is better. I like the RB position better as a group. QB and WRs....who knows.

Marvin does set a high bar. Amendola is solid. Talent wise I think Lions are better right now at WR. Production wise TBD. Both of those guys are vet and had Stafford. And then Perriman is better than rookie Cephus. Year 2 Cephus should be in theory better too
I like Williams over Peterson. And Swift with more experience too as the real top back returning
Tyrell can get 900 yards and 9 TDs though. He has in the past
Rookie is talented but a wild card. Different player. YAC guy with a little more speed.
We don't even know if Y2Cephus even sees the field. They are obviously focused on adding speed to the offense....cephus is slow as shit.
