Matthew Stafford a lock for big money, but does Lions' QB deserve it?

Who's a better NFL quarterback: Matthew Stafford or Derek Carr?

Which of the 20-something gunslingers would you rather have lead your team for the next five years?

Which is most deserving of the richest contract in NFL history?

Carr signed a record five-year deal worth a reported $125 million on Thursday, and for at least the next few weeks he'll be the highest-paid player in the NFL while playing for the Oakland Raiders.

Stafford's own nine-figure extension should be done sometime in July, and it's a lead-pipe lock that he'll top Carr in just about every measure financially.
