Kyren Williams future discussion

[PhillyRam]

I'm the biggest Kyren fan, and defender on this site and had to laugh out loud at this.
You'd have to throw in next years 1st round pick as well just to keep from being laughed at
If all it took was Kyren to get to 14, then from there I'd be all in to get to #1 for Cam Ward

To be fair, it's a weak 1st rd, with some draft talking heads have reported that NFL GM's are saying there may only be 8 or 9 guys that carry a true 1st round grades. So this might be one year where it's not that expensive to move up to say pick 15. Not that I rould fo that for a RB.

To move up that far I am taking Warren, and you can argue with a deep TE draft you don't do that. Trade back and take the kid from Miami or Mason Taylor from LSU.

Yes but true blue chip players are what opens up the offense. Look at what Saquon did for the Eagles. It's not like our current line didn't open holes for Kyren that he simply couldn't take to the house because he's just not that type of back.

Then stay put or trade back and take Hampton, Henderson, Johnson, or Judkins.

I watched Todd McVay's podcast and he said Henderson had a great week in Mobile and now looks like a first rounder because of his explosiveness and the fact that his blocking was outstanding.

Let's say the Rams have to move up to #14 to get Jeanty.

Someone is willing to take KW and the 26th for the 14th . . .

. . . would you make that trade?



Some on the board feel KW is one of the top RBs in the league. If true, he must have some pretty good trade value to some teams?

What if we use his value to move up/around the draft board

Supposedly the draft is not just good at the top for RB but deep with talent this year so I'd say no, especially when there is talent at WR and TE to be had too.

I think many want a home run hitter at RB. I do too.

But, I'm also fine with a Kyren Williams type performance minus the fumbles.

And I still think the answer may already be on the roster in Blake Corum.

Trust me I'm definitely more in the camp of trade back thanks to the absence of a 2nd rounder, but that depends on how the board falls. Gonna be interesting to see how the backs go because I could see it working the other way where teams wait until the 2nd round to go after RBs due to the depth. I highly doubt Henderson goes in the 1st but if he does, it'll be at the end of it.

Yeah we truly haven't seen what Corum can do. How many truly saw Kyren doing anything after his 1st year with us? Good post

I would rather cut or trade KW and use the 5,000,000 on a player that doesn't fumble the fucking ball.


That said, last year on his contract only a 77k dead cap if he is traded, but does KW even have a trade market???

Thr 5 million is an esti.ate just as the 3.5 for Kendrick.

I don't think Snead will resign Williams. He'll offer some lip service but that's about it. I think Snead and McVay will draft a RB this year and give Williams one more year as the lead back before moving on from him.
