AD: Trade Deadline?

[Stl2La]

So guys makes a joke and that makes all his other tweets and retweets about actual game plays and info null and void? He obviously jokes around but he also obviously covers football.

Yes, because he has several other tweets that are just like that and he’s basically says stupid stuff to get people to post/retweet the same bs tweet to get his engagement numbers up…

Yeah it’s got to be true if that expert says it is. Too funny. Anyone can be an insider in today’s social media world or at least pose as one.

Tom Downey is a fraud. But we all knew that.

Got it joke tweets negate working

You wouldn't be able to shop him Jacob. He has a no trade clause. What you'd be able to do is tell him "why don't you choose a few contenders you would like to play for" and then if one of them makes a good offer you honor that by moving him.

Also if and when AD wants out the Rams will accommodate him. They're unlikely to not trade him in that scenario, because the moment contenders know he's on the market I'd imagine there's gonna be interest. He's not the old AD any more but he's still better than most.

Didn't realize that. But yes I agree

I would require at least a first round pick for him. Any prospective trade partner doesn't want to do that then no deal and he retires in horns.

 

[Ram Ts]

A 1st would be an absolute requirement (to me) and first starting part of a big package for AD. Otherwise what’s the point.

From other team’s perspective, imagine what adding AD does to your defense and chances at a SB this year (& next too).

 

[Ellard80]

isn't a need for the cowboys and there is no way they have the salary cap room.

 

[fanotodd]

Say you ARE one of these contenders. Just what are you willing to give up?

Chiefs?
Dolphins?
Jax?
Lions?
Saints?
Falcons?
Vikings?

What can those teams offer, and what would the Rams consider worth a HOF Ram legend? Yeah, he’s not getting any younger, and he now struggles to beat double teams like any other mere mortal, but he might have some value.

I’m having a hard time seeing it right now. Snead tends to give guys away. I don’t want to see him do that to AD99.

 

[RamBall]

The only way the Rams should trade AD is for multiple 1st and or 2nd round picks and not to an NFC team.

 

[Gandalf]

Snead wouldn't get near enough, he usually gets hosed on trades.

Snead will take a 3rd in 2026 and give our 4th rounder to them. JK

Funny because someone used that same story in a tweet that said Purdy walked into the Rams locker room before that game and said that same thing to Donald. I was calling bullshit.

But I get the humor just trying to piss other fans off. I have one story that I use on whiner fans and it's hilarious because they always fall for it and get pissed off. It's just what we do.

That’s the guys whole thing. That’s why I said it was a troll account and some other poster was all over me saying he was legit. I’m sorry but in what world are these the tweets of a legit reporter:

If you read his responses to the comments, it's clear he's trolling. Didn't happen.

28.5 mill dead cap hit if traded.

Which would actually save us money since his cap hit is over $34 million.

No way I would trade AD if the Rams plan to go all in next season again unless we can get 2 1st round picks and he goes to KC or some other team that can prevent the whiners from getting a title.

 

[oldnotdead]

AD has a no trade clause. The only way he gets traded is if he requests it and it would normally be to a specific team. Maybe he's getting tired of Raheem the way Miller, Wagner, Gaines and Ramsey did. They would fire Raheem before trading AD IMO. AD's production has dropped under Morris, and it's not because of Donald getting old. It's how he's used.

It wouldnt save money because we wouldnt have the player. Rams would be paying his replacement, who wouldnt be a replacement at all.
