I think it's behind the scenes talking to some FA's.
I'm sure that Snead and McVay already have the numbers crunched and the "We Not Me" restructuring talks have been had AND agreed to already. Make no mistake, McVay is no dummy. He is involved in the number crunching as well and is right next to Snead every step of the way. That's what a SMART HC does. They understand the ENTIRE process and how it all works.
So, the Rams "know" how much $$$$ they have to work with during FA.
Now, they are calling FA's and talking contracts with those FA's, knowing exactly what they can offer.
