I know everyone is gaga for "Wheelin & Dealin" Les Snead, but Im kinda torn on the deals at this point.

Cooks Trade - Trading a #1 pick for Cooks. Cooks had a good year. We are paying him as a top WR... and Im not sure he is in that league. A top WR pulls in those two tds in the Superbowl right? Rams could have kept pick and drafted Calvin Ridley who does not have same deep speed....kind of like Woods so i understand the need for a take the top off the D type player instead of polished route runner.

Marcus Peters trade - We gave up a #2nd a a #4th for Peters and a 6th. Peters had a bad year. He played seemingly well in the playoffs and Superbowl, but got burned repeatedly throughout the season, particularly when Talib was hurt.

Talib for a 5th - This was a win. Talib played very well and the D missed him when he was injured. He also is a team leader. So far his age has not caught up with him.

Fowler for a 3rd - I think this trade will be measured depending on if we resign him or he was an expensive rental. He made his presence felt in the playoffs and hope he returns for less than $10 mill per year.

so, a mixed bag in my humble opinion. The Rams casual nature towards draft picks is fine and good if we win the SB, but losing out on the cheap talent that rookies bring will sooner or later put us in salary cap hell i would think. The Rams have been very smart about taking advantage of supplemental picks, and that has seemingly not been ignored when making some of these deals.

go rams.
