There isn’t a lot more the Los Angeles Rams can do before the trade deadline after making three deals two weeks ago, but that won’t stop Les Snead and Sean McVay. The always-aggressive tandem will explore potential deals right up to the 4 p.m. ET deadline on Tuesday.
There probably won’t be a deal with the magnitude of the Jalen Ramsey trade, but don’t be surprised if the Rams make another move before Tuesday afternoon.
“To say that we’re done, I don’t know – I think we’re always looking to do things that are in the best interest of our football team,” McVay said after Sunday’s win over the Bengals. “Those are some things that Les and I will look at and we’ll figure out if there’s a situation to be had that maybe upgrades us, that maybe fits within the framework of not only just this year, but the entirety of what we want to do the next couple years. I would never say never, but I don’t know that you’ll expect some kind of move like what the Ramsey one was.
“But we’ll see, it’ll be something we’ll evaluate. The deadline’s coming up in the next couple days so it’ll be a short window for us to do anything with that flight back.”
Adam Schefter of ESPN reported on Sunday that the Rams are open to trading veteran players before the deadline, including cornerback Aqib Talib. The logic, according to Schefter, would be to free up some money to “pay a player like Jalen Ramsey.”
However, Talib and other veterans such as Michael Brockers will be free agents after this season, therefore no extra cap space will be added in 2020 if they’re traded.
As always with the Rams, don’t rule anything out. They’re never afraid of making blockbuster trades, even during the season.
