Here's a handy look at two people you should probably get to know better. Matthew Stafford, because he's about to become one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL, and Jimmy Fallon, because it's really not fair for you to say you hate the Jimmy Fallon show without actually watching it.

The verdict? Stafford is deadly when throwing at dishes, and Fallon is maybe not tremendously funny, but is non-threatening and good-natured. Also, as he mentioned, he's "not a good thrower."

Stafford is, though. I'm not saying it makes him the #1 pick, because I think most NFL quarterbacks could destroy your good china if you challenged them to a similar contest. All I can tell you is that the combine would be a lot more fun to watch if they somehow worked this event into it.

Gracias, SportsCrack.

I wasn't expecting to be impressed, but I was. That guy's got a hell of an arm.

Jimmy Falloon's show is terrible. Seriously. Perhaps the worst show ever. Simply being non threatening and good natured does not make a show great.
Stafford. It is tough to be hyped that much. Too high of expectations look at Matt Leinert and Ryan Leaf.. It takes two or three years just learning before most are ready. It can happen, but I think they should have to prove themselves in the NFL before they become "one of the highest paid quarterbacks in the NFL".

I have to admit, that was pretty funny - reminds me of a David Letterman schtick.

I was more impressed with Stafford than I expected. I wonder if they practiced before showtime. If they didn't, Matt picked it up right away. I wonder how Brady would have done?

I think Stafford is going to be pretty good, if the team that selects him doesn't completely stifle his growth. But yeah they should totally do some kind of thing where NFL players get together and do ridiculous events.

Plate? bigger than a football. Distance? 20ft. Thrown? Underhand toss up. Wow. Only missed 1 of 4.

I would have throw one at Jimmy's crotch and see his reaction.

Fallon is the man, Stafford is the new Ryan Leaf! Might as well waste the pick on Greg Paulus

3 out of 4 for 75% from maybe 20 yards but i guess u could call the 1st one jimmy threw a good no throw by matt
i give it a 4 on a scale of 1 - 10 in relevant talent evaluation of pro football qbs. I did like the fact matt didnt panic after he missed but came back solid with a dead on center hit on the next plate. Now if we could get plates to run 4 sec 40's and make cuts on a dime and catch the ball better than 7 year olds catch colds the lions might make a playoff run, lol. Honestly, take jason smith ol from baylor and if he is available try to trade up for sanchez who has a better comp% and int rate than stafford and should be quite cheaper at the later pick. If sanchez is gone take best available players preferably on def the rest of draft.

Stafford could clean out a whole Carnival's supply of prizes in any throwing/tossing games.

That clip alone makes him the best Lions quarterback since the late 70s.

no one doubts his accuracy. The guy still can't read a defense. He might be the best QB in this years draft, but it a very week draft for QB's. Sanchez might be a bit better and I would like to see how Rhett Bomar progresses. Stafford will be a bust. Ryan Leaf style. The guy keeps getting sugar coated for the poor Lions fans out there. No one is talking about his temper tantrum he threw during his work out for the 49ers. Over rated cry baby. The smart thing might be passing on all the QB's til after the first round. Let them all drop. None of them are worth a first round pick and the millions owed to first round picks. If you want a franchise QB stop sugar coating loosers and wait for the real deal.

any quarterback worth their salt would be on letterman chuckin' footballs at taxi cabs. going on the jimmy fallon show proves stafford is only a second-rate talent.
