sort of was mentioned some time ago
oddly, landing at fox sports roster showed Brockers making less money than C. Lucas the backup tackle
is that right?
Have to agree on your point about Webster. Barring some miracle, the rehab on that Achilles heel is going to take some time.
as for Tavon's roster spot: I see him as a RB, and that makes room for either this deal for Beckham, or a rookie
if they were to draft a RB, and a WR, and still acquire Beckham? I could see an outright release, or because his money was accelerated? A trade that doesn't cost the team getting him a dime? Low rounder. Maybe during the draft
You're right, Tavon's 5 M was guaranteed a long time ago and the point of keeping him was that it is going to cost the Rams 5 M either way---whether they keep him or cut him. I think they are actually going to use him this year. I mean if Cigz could figure out how to use him in 2015 as the RB/WR hybrid he is, so can McVay.
On Achilles injuries. This has come up before. Achilles injuries are no longer the death sentence they once were. Advances have been made. So determining Webster is just iffy at this point is no longer the near certainty it was a few years ago. He has a chance. Putting him on IR with the intent of bringing him back during the season is probably a very good idea. It means that the depth at CB is rock solid. Good insurance against in-season injuries at a vital position.
On Brockers. Your Fox report, yes, is wrong. Here's Brockers's money from a more reliable source: [
