Quotedzrams QuoteLMU93 I agree completely. He is exactly the type that needs to play for his next deal. If he does I would even lean toward the franchise tag in 2020 and then letting him go in 2021 for the comp pick. To me players like Kupp and Johnson are safer bets for long term deals- and at lower price points. At CB the Rams need to invest a 3rd or 4th round pick to find a CB4 for this yeby zn - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRamsDynasty to me his post super bowl interview(s) he seemed a bit different. I understand he thinks he is good enough to be a starter in this league, but there was a seeming switch after the season is over. At that point it seemed that he wanted to be the man on his own team, not just being someone's backup. Doesn't make him a villain but when I saw this post season interview I remember thiby zn - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRamsDynasty all that "Todd was much more injured than anyone realized" talk no doubt burned a bridge with Todd as well as with the Rams FO that was trying hard to keep a lid on the situation. Though CJ did come help us out of a jam, he came off a little smug in interviews, and gave an air of, " I can take Todd's spot/do as well as him", whereas I never got that impressionby zn - RamsFootballFans.com

Quotestlramz In fact, "consider the source" is an argument that is well accepted in the Courts where the whole point is to try and eliminate bias.

QuoteRamboni Any opinion could be considered biased by anyone that disagrees with it. Former players are typically far more candid than current ones since the latter could face serious consequences including losing their job. Especially if talking about the QB (see Antonio Brown).

QuoteAlbaNY_Ram "Meanwhile if a franchise tagged player doesn't report, in week 1 the entire tag amount counts against the team's cap."

Quotejemach it's not possible to assume too much for 2019. Actually, the Rams are in the drivers seat on Goff much like they were for Donald. They actually weren't in the driver's seat for Donald.

QuoteDavid Deacon The price for a good QB looks to be $30 Mil per year. There's a lot of qualifications to that. For one thing, 2nd contracts are their own market. You don't compare Wentz's contract to Rodgers's contract. Or Brady's etc. 3rd and 4th contracts have a lot more variability. They are not as hard set as 2nd contracts are.
