Rams are NOT letting Dotson go.
Besides acquiring him for simply swapping down 1 round of late-mid round picks for 2 years, which means that they lose NO draft picks, this guy has been playing at an All-Pro level game after game.
Big, young, consistent, a perfect fit. Is there a better RG in the NFL right now?
The Rams WILL pay this man, because you just don't get so darn lucky very often. You can also bet the Rams know that if he hits the open market, there will be 2 or 3 teams bidding for his services.
With him, they do NOT have go after a market FA nor do they have to expend a high draft pick on an olineman....and that includes LOT, which is being adequately played by Jackson who continues to develop. FA or draft, there is still the element of risk because you just don't know if that guy is going to have the right chemistry with the rest of the Oline. With Dotson, there is no risk in that regard.
No question that Dotson has been a tremendous right guard. The only question is his affordability in the Rams cap for 2024. Obviously, different respected posters have different opinions on that topic.
