Rams aren't stupid.
When they acquired Cooks, they then paid him tons of money.
Gurley..... highest paid.
AD........... highest paid.
Goff......... highest paid.
The Rams didn't give up two ones for this guy with the hope of discounting him in a few months. Ramsey will be, at least momentarily, the highest paid CB in the league. Rams are realistic about these things, as they have proven.
