I also do not think there is as much money to play with there. So not 100% locked in for the long term and not as much cash to recover so it works.by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
I have argued that we could plug a guy in to redeem his status and get a 3rd rounder rinse and repeat, but I think that strategy is limited and still a gamble to a degree. I get the reasoning with our safety depth and lack of edge rushers out there.by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
Maybe we could trade two first round picks and get him backby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
Dang I guess I called this haha., but yeah if they really like him, they either have to use a 4th or wait until the 6th, but knowing Snead, I could see him trading that 4th down for himby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
I get it for a WR or a CB, I even get it for a DL but OL? keep those feet grounded is what matters more hahaby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
Thanks for the list. Wonder where you think Ihmir Smith-Marsette would go? He would be a great addition to our WR core.by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
Since covid is a one time deal, lowering the cap, they should come up with some other one time deals as well. Like the NBA when they can amnesty a contract after a new CBA is agreed to, this could be a season where they should do things like for the NFL. One thing that would really help is if they allowed a restructuring deal with dead money. Instead of spreading out the current contracts of pby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
After the SuperBowl game, they signed him for the extension. Based on things I have heard and seen I think this is what happened. Money guys: lets lock him since QB prices will just keep going up, he is young and got us to the superbowl, so if we overpay now we will save money down the road. Coach: he got us to the superbowl, is a good kid, and will keep growing, I think we can win witby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
I wonder if it was a disagreement about personnel . If he thought they needed to invest more in linemen, higher draft picks or free agent commitments etc, and they disagreed and said we had what it takes and do not have the money or draft resources to upgrade. Kromer then decides to leave because he does not want to be set up to fail. Total speculation, and just one of several possibleby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
If they project his sacks back down to 3 or 4, that a huge pay off drop even if his run defense and coverage are good.by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
McVay knew what was happening in the locker room, in the meeting rooms, in the huddle calls, and none of these talking heads does. Gurley was great, but then he wasn't and we needed to dump his salary Same thing with Goff. If we hadn't extended him this would be an entirely different situation. I hope he does well in Detroit, he is a good guy with a good arm. I am glad to be free fromby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
One part of the agreement should be allowing dead money to be spread out over 3 to 5 years. That would surely help some teams including the Rams.by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
They lost a bloated contract and a limited offenseby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
Why is he called the professor he did not say anything of value at all hahaby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
I do not think McVay is the ghosting type at all. I know that McVay is in Mexico with his girlfriend and probably taking a little vacation. I doubt there has been no communication whatsoever, but my guess is that it was more setting up a time to talk. So here is my guess: "Jared, Sean here. There is a lot to say for sure, but let's meet up and do it in person when I get back.by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
I watched like 15 minutes they jumped around and they did not talk about that at all, that was too long for me to try and find it. What part of the video are you referring to?by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
She has been critical of McVay and Snead too though.by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
I think part of the point is that they got exposed in the superbowl. Losing Gurley was huge, but after the offense got figured out by defenses McVay changed the offense The short passes were the only way Goff could handle the pressure so they went all in on catch and run guys like Kupp and Woods instead of going after a burner type fly route guy. It was more the defensive adjustments aby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
I think Jordan, who is a wonderful beat writer, has a great take on the 11 personnel podcast and in one of her articles. In summary, Goff was given everything to be successful. McVay was frustrated that with a an amazing defense and an offense completely designed around Goff to succeed, it was still the 9th most inconsistent offense. The defense appears to have become frustrated with theby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
might be the only one available, might not, but Detroit might be the only team wanting Goff they passed on the 8th pick this year plus another pick, so our tow low #1s are worth less probably than that. And they took on salary. Watson will be traded I suspect, it will have to get even more ugly before it happens, maybe even after the season startsby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
So $22 million dead for us and $19 million dead for them is a $3 million difference. So $14 mil for stafford and $14 million for Goff?by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
Maybe it was way to get out from Goffs contractby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
Yeah I almost mentioned that as it is a potential factor. Not sure we could take on that dead money this year already being above the cap as is. If we take on the daed money I predict we move forward with Wolford, if we do not take on the dead money (timing of trade) then I could see Watson But really, who knows, they most likely need to come up with a general cap solution for 2021by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
agree that there are teams in need of a QB and Goff is a viable starter. I think the main factors working against him are: 1. salary, he is paid as a top 3 QB and is not a top 3 QB 2. Mobility, the league has changed, Jeff George would not last in this league as a starter the same way, running QBs are the new thing 3. System QB, how much this impacts evaluation by other teams is a factorby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
That open competition seemed pretty rigged. Let's hope this turns out better than that did.by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
He specifically mentions how Goff did better with empty backfields, and then after the Miami game McVay got hammered for how many empty sets he ran. Empty sets and bootlegs were great until they weren't.by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
i know they go way back, which is why i thought maybe Goff called in a favor of sorts. it would be dishonest than for Silver to tweet that Goff just called him in such a way to communicate it was Goff initiated. also, Goff has not called since or done any other quoting to calm the talk. Part of me thinks Goff wants to be traded.by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
I agree the post game and article said the same things and none of it is really controversial. My point is that Silver did way more than the article in all his interviews. He referred to the call and started airing dirty laundry. This could be Silver just trying to get clicks etc, it could be Silver betraying Goff's confidence, it could be him stretching the truth or filling in blanks, buby headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
answering questions is one thing, calling a reporter is another. look at all the videos Silver did after the call and article. He said way more in the videos than in the article. the only reason you call a reporter after talking to a bunch of reporters is because you fear your narrative was not communicated fully.by headslapper - RamsFootballFans.com
