Just Marcus Peters and stuff. Could be a white flag or retool. |

I think they are just trying to shake things up and make room for young guys to get in there. Trying to just see if they can turn things around. |

And a day after losing Talib. Maybe the $5MM has a better purpose than the serviceable Peters. |

They broke two common sense rules. 1. Never pay a RB 2. Never pay a mediocre QB |

Trading for Ramsey now. No white flag. Solid retool. |

RB are a dime a dozen, you use em and abuse em. Then replace em through the draft. |

Who do you consider generational backs? Just 5 in the last 20 years.. I bet one ( if that) has a ring. |

The Jaguars have a better shot at the playoff than LA. Really disappointed this happened but I'm glad Ramsey is going to a team that's going nowhere. Two firsts straight up. Holy shit, more draft capital than it cost to get Mack. |

So the Rams picked first overall in 2016 and, barring a trade, will not pick in the first round again until 2022. They have some analytics dogma in their front office that first-round picks are way overvalued. You could tell before but now its really obvious. It flatly hasn't worked though, they've loaded up on picks outside the top-100 and its resulted in a bunch of pitiful classes. Quantity over quality doesn't seem to be the way yet the Rams are doubling down on it. This + the massive amount of money they are paying Goff has me believing the 2021 pick could be top-five and the 2020's in general may be a really dark decade for LA football. This is a bad trade. |

Before today by far the Rams' two best players are the two guys they drafted in the first round in back-to-back years. Yet they seem intent on never picking in the first round again. Its a bad strategy. You want first crack at the elite talent, even if it doesn't always pan out you've got a much better shot of a guy becoming a true star that way than hoping you strike gold in the fourth. |

The Rams roster is going to look like an absolute shit pile in three years. |

I was thinking Faulk too. Believe he win with Rams A.P. L.T. Jamal Charles Chris Johnson? |
