QuoteRams43 All due respect, but I have to disagree with the author on this one. As a backup QB Garoppolo seems like a fine choice. Apparently, Rams either couldn’t come to terms with Wentz or just didn’t want him for their iwn reasons. Water under the bridge but I am curious as to which of the two it was concerning Wentz.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
If the Rams reached out and he was holding out for something with a closer shot at starting or if the Rams weren't interested at all.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
The Rams should in that case pursue the Jag's Allen not the Eagles Reddick. Reddick is good but Allen is younger and might be transformational in the right system whereas Reddick imo is just very good.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteramBRO Although I don't believe that Wentz is a world-beater, I do believe that he's better than Jimmy G. What? Is he (Wentz) taking the same route he did last off-season (i.e. waiting for an injury/desperation)? I hope that his rumored locker room demeanor didn't have the Rams wanting to part ways with him. He was probably holding out hoping for a phone call just like last year. The Rby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
I was all for bringing in Chase Young or Jadaveon Clowney because we had AD on the roster. I am not sure if we can afford to bring in underachieving players on the roster when we don't have an elite player to hold them accountable. Maybe Darkly Brooding Matthew Stafford can do it but otherwise now we have to beware of locker room cancers.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteCROMWELL21 No. His retirement doesn't change much If he was retiring anyway couldn't he like say add five void years at back end to decide up dead cap hits once he retires to manipulate the cap?by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
If AD was committed to his ten year plan was it wise to take that year to take our medicine? Was playing on the gutted team what hastened his departure? In other words would it have been better to pull a Saints and stay all in until the three pillars AD, Stafford and McVay are gone? Last year let's say keep Ramsey and Floyd and try run it back 2.0?by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
If the answer is ALOT then is trading for Allen on the Jags still possible or the Eagles DE?by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
It might be a prank but it looks bad. ESPN says he just announced he is retiring. I thought it was just about the restructuring.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Is this extra cap space from the Boom and AD restructure for particular players or just cap flexibility? Secretly I am hoping they need the space for either an already behind the scenes for an edge to be acquired in trade or for Clowney/Chase. They also can now go get Spoon or Gilmore if they consider him an upgrade over the next 3 years at the opposite CB position and maybe JJIII as well. We wilby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
I would hope that McVay has some of the answers since he had Wentz in his locker room for a couple of months. If he was intrigued enough to want to know more they will try to keep him. However Wentz opinion of himself, wanting more money is why he was on the couch for as long as he was. If he lowers his contract demands I don't know why the Rams wouldn't want him, however if I was Wentz I am sureby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
I remember talks last year about the Rams wanting to restructure Matthew's deal but Stafford declined. I got the feeling that the Rams were wanting something that would mean less money for Matt and he wasn't having it. However after this past season I am wondering if the Rams would be open to extending Matt's deal a couple more years of security, and added cap flexibility for the team.

Quoteroman18 You really think that way about him, being self centered? He was skipping along with Turner last year, he wasn't moping around when Turner was tieing his rookie record, he was right there encouraging him. I would think you'd come up with he has inside info of a trade coming down for Josh Allen ....LOL.....

QuoteRamsdude QuoteSpeed_Kills I mean there are so many options for backup QB Is there a reason why Wentz seems to be the favorite with a few of you? For me its far more important that the Rams sign a quality backup period... I am not married to Wentz although should they choose him great So some of these are off the board now... so they do need to get moving but Wentz is only one opby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
I don't know if Fields is a possible heir to the throne type, but I am not sure that Wentz is either, because I hope Stafford will hang around another 3-5 years at which time Wentz viability will be used up as well. I see Fields as a stop gap while he is on the rookie contract, even utilizing his 5th year option won't be that expensive per se. If he hits hurray if he doesn't he is a vastly betterby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
I want to keep Wentz, he is a close approximation to Stafford and has value to the team, in a small package of plays even when Stafford is healthy. That being said just like the Rams didn't want to wait on Shelton and lose out on other option ala Von Miller situation. IF Wentz situation continues to drag on, why not visit the option of trading a 4th round pick to the Bears for Justin Fields. Consby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
You can't at edge, If we could possibly get Young/Clowney while also getting Spoon back (or Gilmore) at cb and getting Wentz I would be happy. That haul might mean BPA in the draft which is always nice. I would still go edge because Young/Clowney might be rentals at the price point we would get them at.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
McVay knows what side his bread is buttered on. He is the offensive genius. I wish he gives the defense a vast majority of the draft capital.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotedodgerram I thought the Rams realized what a difference Von Miller made in our SB run and that they would go all out after one of the available edge rushers, especially Hunter. Relying one of the rookie edge rushers will fall to us and deliver immediately is a little dangerous iMHO. Same for CB. Williams is a good player but basically he only replaces Witherspoon on the roster. Go RAmsby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
If we need an edge we will probably need to move above the Chargers, Harbaugh might draft Latu and then try to move Mack to the highest bidder.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Chase Young or Clowney on the prove it deal option. Most players don't care for it BUT there is a long line of guys who have gotten paid big bucks for being in the orbit of Aaron Donald. So there is that.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
When the Rams made the move on Burns initially he was far from available. Could the Rams still be in the running for the Jags edge rusher? Or is there a team out there with a good edge that is under contract that might be gettable by trader Les?by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Bucky Brooks has him going #8. He has us taking Chop at #19. Now I weuld love Latu is he is anywhere near 19 but I don't like work out warrior Chop, I would rather have Chase Young than Chop. He give me Malula vibes his production isn't in the same universe as his combine numbers.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
First round draft picks that underachieved at teams that drafted them, that the Rams picked up, benefitted and played their best ball next to AD and then split to cash a check somewhere else. Heck even late stage Von Miller, so if it worked for all of them why couldn't it work for Chase??? Mack was drafted the same year AD was, so his career is almost over, best option for Rams is to bring in a hby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
A'Shawn was a beast against the run, but he is merrily cashing in on a great season next to AD.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Getting the band back together from when they were the top ranked defense.(maybe he can call A'Shawn too). Jalen Ramsey would reach out to all the elite players to come join him in horns. He probably would have reached out to Kris Jones, lol. Oops see A'Shawn signed with the Panthers.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Not my favorite option but he does fit the Ram's motif, I physically talented first rounder that under performed where he was drafted, that might thrive in the Ram's system next to their pillar players.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
I would hope AD and Stafford would be more than willing to do some restructuring to free up cap space for a ring run. I am not sure if I would want to restructure Kupp because of his injury history.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com

I heard somewhere that the Panthers are souring on retaining Burns long term because of his salary demands and that yesterday's price, turning down two #1's for him is not today's price, I heard two #2's have been floated. Is the Burns option truly dead? Can trader Snead pull it off and can Demoff structure a contract that kicks in, in two years after some of the big money deals are off the booksby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
