Maybe but the Rams will probably need to create some additional salary cap space.

OTC has updated for the Dotson and Jonah Jackson contracts, and the Alaric Jackson tender; and that leaves them with just $12M of cap space. It does not yet reflect the Parkinson and Williams deals which should take-up most of that $12M.

Now the Rams will add some cap space when they resolve Noteboom. $5M will be opened-up if they release him (pre-June); and the savings could be a little higher if he accepts a new/reduced contract.

Spotrac continues to be slow to update, so there is nothing to compare OTC with at this time. Spotrac usually has the cap space numbers a little higher than OTC.

Small amounts of cap space can (almost) always be created but, If the Rams want to open-up significant space, they may have to restructure a major contract ... like Stafford's deal.

Honestly we might be better off building a really good secondary with what's left in free agency. Justin Simmons or maybe even Gardner-Johnsonb at safety.

Edit: Johnson gone just that fast lol

I love the rams moves don't get me wrong and I'm also sure if we are aware they are probably aware lol we won a Superbowl adding von to a team that was already solid with the pass rush. I know a lot of people keep saying the draft the draft but even if we came out with another Micah Parsons( beyond thrilled) it's still a rookie at an important position experience means a lot von didn't only contribute on the field admittedly by AD himself von showed him how to lead vocally and that went a long way.

All these contacts we are signing are all 3 years I can't believe the rams are going to depend on the draft at pick 19 to try and get a Superbowl. They must have something up their sleeve wether it's restructures mack and or a trade along with some cheap vets. Still many holes to fill right?

Safety
Edge
Kicker
Back up QB
Another corner?
DT?
LB?

The draft can help at corner and safety but I'm not so sure pick 19 stays unless we trade a roster player

Last year wasn't Erica Donald kind of voicing her opinion about getting AD some help? Now with like 170 mill of cap for offense and like 96 mill or so for defense and AD is one third of that I'm thinking something is coming or he will be going lol.

Both are gone. CGJ - Eagles, Simmons- Titans
 
Dam dropping like flies!!

I wonder if we wait for a mid season trade to get that pass rusher - ala Von Miller or. Fowler.

We might trade down in the draft to grab Reddick/Sweat from Eagles. We can prob get them to eat the cap for one if not both if we do it right. One is owed 13 and other 15 mil next year, but we will have to extend them past 25' Mack might be out of reach now with like 8 mil or so left in cap.

Restructure of Stafford/ Kupp/Hig, and Boom prob coming if we do get Mack and or Reddick/Sweat.Restructure still prob coming for Hig and Boom either way.

Edit: REddick is owed 21.8Mil in cap hit on Eagles and sweat 9 mil so numbers were off but still around same total.
