When there was the triumvirate of Snead, Fisher and Demoff the mantra was to build through the draft and not pick up any free agents above the age of 28. One person is removed from power and as we've all seen that philosophy has been turned on its ear...but why? This is not as much of a "why the rush" as it is why such a drastic change in philosophy?

QuoteBigGame81 That's why I think this deal went down when it did. The Rams really wanted OBJ, the Giants wanted 2 1st's and a player (Kupp or Havenstein is what I've heard) and the Rams weren't going to give up that much. The compensation for Cooks wasn't as much, it gets McVay the deep threat he covets, and they should be able to sign Cooks to a long term deal for less than what OBJ wouldby laram - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteRamBill ....for the Rams and every other team. Quality depth is very hard to come by for any NFL team. Teams will have some depth at certain positions, but it's rare to have good depth at most positions. If a team gets hit hard by injuries their season is done. That's just the way it is.
