Haha what were you saying? We were tanking?

I got tired of the normal off season BS decided to stir it up a little. Was definitely more entertaining than normal.
Nah, just that from Jourdan's interview like 2 days ago, it sure sounded like Rams were gonna let Alaric go to market and they themselves were unsure what he'd get there and they'd want to see.

Guessing Jackson's deal might be front loaded if their goal is to have cap room available in 26' & 27'. They might look at 25' as being a year where the improvement will come from hopefully being healthier and growth from so many young players.

So might not get big money FA signings. Plug some holes with solid vets, draft a few impact guys, and let's hope we have a pretty healthy year.

I guarantee you this was part of the discussion between McVay and Stafford this morning.

McVay: "Hey man, if you sign to our number, we'll have enough room to sign Alaric TODAY."

Stafford: "Gimme a pen..."
That's a very fair point, I like it!

I am sure Stafford wanted sssurances his LT was coming back before signing his deal. AJ played well. Is still young and deserves the money. Still wouldnt stop me from drafting an OT at 26 though.
Wouldn't necessarily hurt as Havenstein isn't getting younger, but that also depends on how they feel about the other players still on the board at that time and their draft vision. Gonna be interesting to see it play out.

More evidence that McVay's players love their time in LA.

The Offensive Line coaches will only make this foundation better.

Still like my above statement.Does that open The door for a Johan Jackson trade ??

Plus does Cooper Kupp bring The Rams any value in a trade ??

Sounds like AJ will be flipping the bill at Sizzler for the OL!

It will be physically impossible for me to ever see another report from Jordan Schultz ever again and not immediately think about the time he tried to fight Ian Rappaport in an Indianapolis Starbucks over Rappaport throwing cold water on his Stafford/Brady/ski resort story lolol.
Just a couple of days ago, wasn't it?

Great news. I was hoping we could resign Jackson. This means we can use our draft capitol elsewhere. This is huge.

I wonder if he took some what of a discount due to A) Loves LA and McVay but also B) They've been open, honest and patient with him through a few of his off field stuff.
