Blue and Gold
early 2nd
We paid a 2nd and then accepted a 6th or Gaines.
Gaines was worth, a 5th or maybe a low 4th.
the underselling of Gaines by maybe a round (give or take) meant getting Watkins for a 2nd rather than a 1st.
Plus the insurance of the 3rd if we cannot get a deal done
It was similar to Faulk, Aeneas, Turley...getting a top quality player for a 2nd and some change.
Yeah, agree pretty much on this. A couple of notes...
I doubt they would have gotten more than a 5th for Gaines. A 4th at any number seems high for him.
There is no guarantee of getting a 3rd for Watkins if he leaves. First, he has to sign a big deal with someone else. Then, the Rams can't sign a big time free agent themselves.
If both of those things happen, then they get a 3rd.
I'm gonna hold you personally responsible.
