Son of Bum key, but much more appeal than that...

It is well known that Wade and Talib really got along well. And I suspect that it helped that the Rams already had Peters in the fold, because with Talib and Peters together, they can hold themselves up as perhaps the best pair of corners in the league.

1. Playing opposite Peters and as part of a potentially dominant secondary. (No need to "suspect" that it helped bring Talib in; he explicitly said so.)
2. Playing as part of a potentially dominant defense
3. Playing w/the highest-scoring offense in the league last year
4. A chance to play out his remaining years on a team w/legit championship aspirations
5. Playing in LA - big market and "great town," according to Talib.
6. Son of Bum

That's not a rank ordering. Son of Bum might have been THE key. But clearly more than that that brings Talib to LA.

  Nope. No win-win. Sherman is damaged goods.
