if you ad it up. And a SB appearance to set the hook on a franchise returning to a new city and stadium is HUGE. imo
..and well worth the draft capital. The10yrs before McVay was hired in 2017, the Rams were flush with #1 picks... and what did they have to show for it???
Not even a playoff appearance.
Since McVay and our crazy wheeling/dealing and "throwing away" of draft picks we've been to the play-offs 4 of 5 years.
I'm fine with the strategy they are trying until it stops working for a few years in a row. Otherwise, I'm dancing with the guys that brought us here.
But remember. One reason the Rams could get to the post-season and SB so easily was because of their #1 picks. Brockers, Donald, Gurley, Goff. Different levels of contribution there but still--what if the Rams had no #1 picks between 2012 and 2016? The McVay Rams would have been starting completely over in 2017. It would be a rebuild, and at the time Demoff said it wasn't that.
