Just imagine what Gardner is going to ask for.

Let’s sign Spoon ,asap if they haven’t already? Don’t know what I’m missing ? Cobie Durant is a FA,maybe that’s the direction with this crazy Cap Number.
The Rams gave up a lot to sign Jalen Ramsey.Talib & the crutch grabber helped for the 18 Superbowl.

This would be great! I think Emmenwori could be used in different packages and end up being a multi Probowl type player

Let's hope they sign Spoon. He's been our most consistent corner for 2 years.

I'd sign Spoon... cut Williams and draft a CB early

 

[Mackeyser]

How so? He's gonna spend up to the salary cap just like everyone else

Guaranteed monies have to be escrowed iirc, and there was speculation that Bengals ownership didn’t have the liquid cash to do it. It’s occasionally been an issue for non-billionaire owners like the Spanos family and the Bengals among others.

Wow Sofi was great fun on a Thursday night last October. They must be rating food too. The nachos I had there were so nasty I didn't finish more than half of it. It's the first time I ever stopped eating Nachos.... all the other times I'm eating them till they're gone. "Anyone finishing that? Nope... haha!!!" Sofi's are a cross between burnt tasting and bland. Worst chips ever.

I was on the 200 level and got meatballs. They were pretty good, but outrageously expensive.

Williams is solid.He adds veteran leadership. He’s an excellent tackler.Why Cut him ? Durant has gotten hurt each season.Depth is good.

Eagles add another D”LINEMAN from GEORGIA.

Eagles adding former Giants pass rusher Ojulari

Free agent pass rusher Azeez Ojulari is signing with the Eagles on a one-year, $4 million deal.

I never thought about it that way, makes sense. Thanks for the education

Williams salary is now guaranteed as of the 5th day of the league year. OTC shows that there is no cap savings now if cut. Previously, there was a $3M cap savings. So he is here for 25'

SoFi at 85?

It’s Yelp. I have never trusted Yelp since they tried to extort money from me to bury a bad review of my restaurant. I half suspected they put the review there in the first place being that it was mostly negative about a menu item we had never served in our entire history.

I’ve been to lots of stadiums including SoFi. I didn’t eat or drink at SoFi because I was already shelling out for my son and I to go to a Dodger playoff game and the Ram game in one weekend. But the stadium is amazing and I didn’t see horrendous lines or anything.

So yeah. Fuck Yelp.

Why the heck would be cut Williams even if we draft a top end CB?

 

[El Chapo Jr]

Cutting Williams at this point would be a dumb move. Signing Spoon and still drafting a rookie would be a much better plan.

According to the cap site OTC, cutting Darious Williams would not save any cap space. His entire 2025 cap hit would be Dead-$ against the still hits the Rams' cap.

 

[WestCoastRam]

Didnt mean to single you out, I see this sort of thing posted about owners and dont get it.
Being cheap doesnt affect what players get paid, they all spend the cap money. Now what he'll pay coaches or invest in the team facilities? Yeah I get that, but paying these WR more just means he gets to pay other guys a lot less to stay under the cap

Bengals have traditionally not liked to include guaranteed money in contracts. I could be wrong on this but some - not all - contracts require escrow for guarantees and they're just a ridiculously cash poor operation.

Cutting Williams at this point would be a dumb move. Signing Spoon and still drafting a rookie would be a much better plan.

Cutting our best CB, who performed better than Spoon is an interesting idea that continues to get banded about here this offseason.

They save no cap $$ by releasing Williams at this point. His salary became guaranteed as of the 5th day of the league year.
