Granted this is just based on one of the ranking sites (BR) but it I think it would actually be easier replacing the production we got out of Sammy then replacing one of the best safety in the game...
Want them both back, but if it’s one or the other it will be Joyner
Notice I didn't say replace production.
What Watkins provided when beyond that.
I think, by and large, that great producing safties are easier to find.
In the last few years we've had Joyner, McLeod, and rookie JJ III who were all highly ranked. It's taken 10 years for the Rams to obtain a WR with Watkins' skill set.
WR as a position is more valuable than SS. So 25th WR may be equal to 5th rated SS. The Rams obviously are struggling with this since they're undecided.
