Anyway - sort of surprised Alaric was as high as he was,not saying he is HUGE for The Rams to have resigned him.
Like I’ve said from last year when The Rams put a Tag on him that they should’ve locked him up .
—This actually was such an excellent signing,thought they were going to let him get away.

Just for Ramfan503

I am somewhat surprised that Alaric signed that contract, which is basically what the two guards signed for last year. I would have thought that a left tackle could have gotten more, especially considering his age and performance last year.

Just happy this deal got done and is one less hole that needs to be filled this off season. Just think what this off season would be like if we lost both Stafford and Jackson! If Jackson continues to improve, he will be getting paid even more in three years.

As usual, the Rams are getting the House in order before Free Agency. Stafford and now AJ are ready to go.

Well Let’s just see. As far as Mattew Stafford goes he was put on the spot. LAST YEAR could have got CRAZY! JOURDAN was Freaking out,because she was worried he was going to HOLD OUT !! Mcvay had to come in at the last minute
and SAVE The Day !!
—Once again Mcvay came right out & didn’t (wasn’t)play games.He was straight up w/ Kupp!!! Hard call COULD YOU imagine ???

Kelly said what she said & helped get the word out.It made it easy to VENT & let the air out.STAFFORD wanted to get PAID !!
BIG WHIT w/ FITZ really helped Mcvay open up & told THE TRUTH!! Got to appreciate that concept Now A Days(. )

Mattew got to see his options & his worth.DEMOFF/SNEAD do that .They’vd made it CLEAR!! Mcvay as well. He decided it was The Best to stay a RAM!! I’m sure Stafford laid down some things he wanted from Mcvay !! Mcvay appreciates & UNDERSTOOD that they could make a 2YEAR SUPER BOWL run together!

Alaric knows what The Rams mean to him. He is a simple guy. A FAMILY FIRST GUY !! Mcvay could have been an AZZ-HOLE coach,but THE RAMS ORGANIZATION doesn’t play that !! They keep it in house WHOSE HOUSE !!! THE RAMS HOUSE

—It just shows good FAITH & RAMS they TRUST!! The ORGANIZATION has EARNED IT(thanks Stan)!! This BASE The Rams have across the board is as good as any. Of course there are some TOUGH organizations out there for another time.

With Alaric The Rams didn’t want to get caught up like they did with DOTSON !! They got stuck with Johan,because they had to have a serious backup plan. They also didn’t trust or believe in Coleman Shelton who would have been the right way to go IMO !!

That ALL SAID ,last season is last season. I also am on RECORD saying A’K Whiterspoon will be back. That said as well from above a PLAYER U’ALL (some) talked crap about & wanted out is D.ROB-15(lol-tutu). He might be back w/ The Rams-Stafford loves him & they’ve treated him right.He was a BIG PART of the last 2 year runs.Super Clutch & showed up more than Kupp ???? Just saying ???

It has not yet been reported. Neither has the Stafford restructure.

The two cap sites (OTC and Spotrac) are the best sources to check.

$8,194,118 2025 cap number
OTC has already changed it to a mere $7M cap hit in 2025.

Spotrac has not yet updated.

I alwsays take these sites with a grain-of-salt, as they frequently adjust contract details.

7m cap hit this season is great. Also, its only essentially a 2 year deal. I think the Rams did a great job on this contract!

Yeah, they can move on after 2 years if he dissapoints and only take a $5M dead cap hit.

His salary cap hit is big in 26' however, with Kupp gone they essentially cancel each other out. Another reason why they want to move on from Kupp now and avoid any spillover dead cap on 26'

Spotrac shows no info now on him. We'll see what happens with the numbers soon I hope.

OTC is showing $45Million in space after Alaric signing and with Kupp cut. This is before any info on Stafford’s new deal and 25 cap hit.
Also included Tutu.

OTC doesn't have Tutu on the site right now and he and Stafford could eat half of that 45 million or more. Could not saying it does because we don't know Staffords number.
