Demoff said that Goff is on the leadership council. What is that? Who else is on it? Are the people on the LC untouchable? Should we disregard statements like the one Peter King made that don't be surprised if the new HC trades Goff? Personally, I think the idea of Goff getting traded is ridiculous. But hey, I've seen stuff out there even worse, like let's trade Donald so we can have a first round pick this year. (Yes, there are media guys saying stupid stuff like this).
Demoff is right about the media getting the Rams draft situation wrong. I continually hear that the Rams are bereft of picks because of Goff trade. Just confirms the ignorance of most of the media.
Demoff's big point is leadership. Obviously we all agree with that being huge, but I have doubts the Rams have the judgment to pick the right leader. Demoff is a smart guy. I've seen posts that reference his Dartmouth education. It's a wonderful school. My brother went there. Class of '83. He's a financial genius. Teaches corporate finance at Sloan, MIT, UChi, and Stern. He keeps calling me before every decision that requires common sense, cause his stinks. That's my concern with Demoff. Very smart numbers guy who hasn't shown he can make a winning football decision on his own.
How far away is this team from being successful? Hard to say. But I don't believe Demoff has any clue on the answer. And that's what worries me. I'm just hoping they get lucky with the hiring. Cause that's what it's gonna take.
