I'm still not sure the Rams didn't do what they wanted - again rightly or wrongly - when they decide on how much to value they place on a position...and then which positions they value. Jenks was no accident....they valued Tru more than Jenks. imo
I wonder why we tagged Tru for years and then wouldn't pay him 16m/yr??? Cuz, they founda way to get 2 CBs for the same price that were better. Again, I' have no idea what they are doing...and if what they are doin is for the short term or long term. I'm not even making criticizing cuz I still am not sure of what their intentions are for AD, Peters, TG, etc...I think Goff will be the only guy I think they would pay market price for. I think many of the elite players on our team
will not sign....long term deals with us(AD, Peters, etc).
I think the Rams offer money but it's Evans money. I actually think the Rams want to try and make a middle class where more players make more money, and that 8-10 players that take up 50% of the cap space...the Rams want it to be 20-25 players...as it lessens the risk. Every year there are cap-cut casualties, based on money and not talent...Tree, Talib, Cousins, etc.
This whole cap strategy, from the team's perspective is unclear to me...and it
seems a bit more than a
team just being cheap. ALL teams have to pay their players a % of the revenue in 2yrs?! So, ALL teams are paying players what they agreed to in the CBA...teams just trying to maximize or do somethin in the process...why the cap casualty when you have to spend the money anyway?? I don't understand a lot.
I just think
there's somethin happenin here...and what it is ain't exactly clear...
