Snead says the Rams knew they needed to make changes to get over the hump to win the Super Bowl. It seems like he is intimating that trading Goff for more experienced QB but I think that is explaining things in hindsight. Why do you give Goff a whopper of a contract when you have a year of control left and up to 2 franchise tags? The price for Stafford was steeper because we had to off load the Goff contract.
I agree it was worth making the moves to win a Super Bowl but making moves we made could have been more cap efficient in terms of the dead money we had to eat or avoid by paying extra due to bad contracts.
