OL was and is the biggest issue on our ‘19 team in terms of making the playoffs THIS year, right?

Sooooo...

Isn’t it curious that the blockbuster trade involved bailing on Peters and trading for Ramsey midseason? Such emphasis on D while our OL is flailing about?

Question: So, are the Rams really pursuing “win in ‘19” with this move, or is this merely for the long term benefits? To leave the OL unfinished if they’re serious about winning this year seems so Un-Snead/McVay like, don’t you think?

OR is there another OL trade in the Rams near future? One that could return our OL to at least league average? I sure wouldn’t rule it out after yesterday’s moves. I have no clue how such a meaningful move would be affordable, but that’s another story.

Seems so strange to ignore the OL while spending immense resources on the D IF they are still committed to winning this year. Might be kinda like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic after hitting the iceberg.

Not a criticism of the Ramsey trade, btw. I get that. Just curious as to why they’ve left the OL dangling. So far, anyway.

There wasn't an o-lineman available for trade anywhere near as good at their position as Ramsey is at his ..that's one thing.... Talib is nearing the end of his career and we seemingly went out and locked up one of the best ones in the NFL

Btw, the Rams lost two games this year where they combined for 69 points and over 1000 yards of offense (TB and Seattle) ..... They play better defense in those games and were probably sitting at 5-1 right now....heck make a 43 yard game winner and we'd be 4-2 right now.

A good defense is sometimes the best thing for an offense.

Great perspective. I agree all across the board.

  I think the Rams can scratch in claw around the O line in 2019.
