Re: The ONLY possible reasoning I can come up with. Mind you....A hunch / guess.

I think we screwed ourselves by showing our hand too early. Other teams knew we were going to move him period, so they bid low.

Also it sounds like we did not want to trade him within the division so it is possible we had a better offer from say the Niners.

Guessing at best maybe some team was offering a low first. Maybe the FO was looking to draft two TEs and really liked Hunter. Maybe they see Hunter with a year experience as a second round pick. Maybe they see a third in this draft for what they need as good as a second rounder next year.

Perhaps they trust their drafting in the 3rd round to find gems like Kupp etc. and figure it works for them. They also tend to like lower draft picks due to the lower salary requirements.

Then there is the fact that Ramsey really wanted to go to Miami and perhaps the Rams were willing to take a little less to help out the player that helped us win a championship.

Lastly, perhaps you are right and the market for Ramsey is not that great considering his age and salary, but that seems less likely since Miami just guaranteed him his salary.

  two 3rds translates to a 2nd rounder

JimYoungblood53158March 12, 2023 10:56AM

  I thought they got 1 3rd rounder

  I am counting the TE as a third rounder, he was that in 2021

JimYoungblood5393March 12, 2023 11:01AM

  be nice if he turned out to be a player

  Rams had 5 suitors for Ramsey? (Breer)

Rams43119March 12, 2023 11:21AM

  I figure JR was in on those trades.....

  Surprised there wasn't a better market for Ramsey

David Deacon88March 12, 2023 11:54AM

  Getting draft picks in trades isn't like the 1970's

NewMexicoRam72March 12, 2023 01:12PM

  Depends on position and how desparate the team is - Rams gave up that for Stafford

JimYoungblood5379March 12, 2023 01:18PM

  I think we needed him off the books by the 15th....
