After waiting overnight to gather my thoughts...

October 16, 2019 09:13AM
And I’ve read every single post about these trades, both pro and con.

Corbett is a so-so trade on the face of it, but the cost was very reasonable, so there is that. I’m assuming that Kromer sees something that the Browns coaches never did. I’m a big Kromer fan still, although his reputation has been somewhat tarnished by this years results. This may not be the last OL move before trade deadline. And Corbett seems unlikely to solve our OL woes even with the most optimistic view. Seems like an okay move at this point, but we should never underestimate Kromer on these matters, given his track record.

Kenny Young is slightly more intriguing to me. Rams reportedly insisted on him specifically in the Peters trade. If true, then this could be a sneaky under-the-radar get for the Rams. Not earth shaking, but very solid move nonetheless. A Snead special. I kinda like the possibilities.

And now for the blockbuster trade. I see the points made by those many who love this trade. I do. But I also see the points made by the skeptics, too. This is a very high cost move that will have ripple effects for years and years. Could be a net positive or negative. So I’m gonna trust the FO and coaches for now and try to set aside my reservations about Ramsey’s diva history. IOW, I’m not all in on the Ramsey trade, but I am slightly tilting toward approval. Probably only because of my faith in Snead and McVay/Phillips.

  I think the Rams can scratch in claw around the O line in 2019.
