Of course it is, but this is a fun topic on a message board between huge Ram games with playoff implications.
If Floyd keeps this up, I think that the Rams should try to lock him up for 5 more years. He seems perfect for this Staley D, don’t you think?
And the odds of getting a like quality edge player in next years draft are almost zero unless we get Cooper Kupp lucky.
Rams have been inclined to acquire expensive but high value players since McVay came on board and Floyd’s been playing his way into that category. And he’s playing at a very high level at a premier position. One that Staley greatly values.
So, just how much will it cost the Rams to lock Floyd up for 5 years, assuming that the Rams are willing to pay him a very large percentage as guaranteed?
Do y’all think $15M per would get the job done? If not, just what do you think it will take?
I really think that this is doable if we’re willing to let Everett, JJ, and Reynolds walk, among others. Darious Williams would cost at most $5M next year even if tendered as a 1st rounder, I believe.
Like I said earlier, this is predicated on Floyd continuing to light it up, but if he does? An extension looks like a no brainer to me.
Would love to get your input on this.
