Rams leveraged compensatory formula in their team build (Updated)

[Riverumbbq]

I threw it in the trash can late last night. It has been lying to me a lot lately.....so I need to find a new one. I heard that they are out of date & that crystal squares are the new progressive way to see into the future.

As far as Samson Ebukam getting that sizeable contract ..........I'm happy for him & that's fine by me sure glad it was the 9ers that overpaid for his future services. He never really produced in four NFL seasons for us. Glad we have moved on.

This is how I do it, and it's a lot cheaper than a Crystal Ball.

They need to make one of those that has the same answer every time. That shit would make it far more useful for trolling lol.

 

[BonifayRam]

He got $12M for 2 years from SF when I asked that question so.......

I guess you missed that.

Thats what I get for considering Spotrac 2021 NFL Free Agents Tracker | Spotrac previously listed Calculated Market Value's on my team's UFA's as being close to accurate. Thus far they must have been using my math skills in their assessments .......they have been off by a large degree! That why I looked hard to marry a banker many decades ago.

Originally they said Floyd came in @ $13.1 million, then JJ III assessed @ $8 million, What they had for OLB'er Samsom Ebukam was totally wrong he got well over what they thought he get & they must have assessed that NFL best LS. McQuade was worthless because they did not consider him. This site was way off on the three above as we now know. Appears now that being a Ram the last few seasons under the Ram Organization adds a lot more value & worth than SPOTRAC figured.

They have assessed UFA Troy Hill @ $6.3 million Avg. yearly Salary. I bet they are off by 2.5 million. They also assessed TE Everett @ only $7.3 million. I figure more like closer to $8.5 million a year.

Well - I’m just thinking how deep The Rams roster was.

Fox & Brown just signed.

Everett & Reynolds ?

Ebukham yesterday as well.

Hill ? What happens with D.Williams.

—Floyd resigned which through my calculations of just by player personnel. JJ got paid.

What’s the question?? Mr.Eight Balls wants to know.

Updating this thread in this fluid situation it appears the Rams have the ability to receive four current 2022 comp picks. Rams could sign a UFA from another team that could vastly affect the below configuration. Rams more likely will avoid UFA's & target 2022 released free agents or trade for the desired player. There are still two pending Ram UFA's yet to sign. Austin Blythe/ Josh Reynolds.

No idea what Austin Blythe will get but UFA starting OL'ers are getting paid big. Reynolds should fall into the Morgan Fox range. So for right now, this is how it's going for Snead.

2022 Ram Projected COMPENSATORY PICKS:
Round 3 – The Rams awarded a second third-round compensatory pick for the loss of Director of College Scouting Brad Holmes to the Detroit Lions as their new General Manager.

Round 4 – The Rams currently project to be awarded a fourth-round compensatory pick for the loss of safety John Johnson.

Round 6 – The Rams currently project to be awarded a sixth-round compensatory pick for the loss of outside linebacker Samson Ebukam.

Round 6 – The Rams currently project to be awarded a sixth-round compensatory pick for the loss of tight end Gerald Everett.

2022 Projected Ram Draft is assembling close to the below with NINE selections plus a good chance to see it get enhanced when Austin Blythe signs a better deal than Everett or Ebukam:

#1-Traded to Detroit/Stafford
#2-Rams own
#3-Rams own
#3-Rams awarded Compensatory Pick for Brad Holmes
#4-Traded to Houston/Cooks
#4-Rams awarded Compensatory Pick for JJ III
#5-Rams own
#6-Rams own
#6-Rams awarded Compensatory Pick for Ebukam/Hill/ Everett
#6-Rams awarded Compensatory Pick for Ebukam/Hill/ Everett
#7- Rams own

I don't think we traded next year's third to Detroit ... That is this year's we dealt.

No shit lol. Also I think part of it is that teams are really valuing Edges who can contain. So an elite strong side Edge had a lot of value and I get why because when you watch film of our defense Floyd was slaying dudes in his contain. But he also menaced the QBs just being all big and rangy and ugly.

That MFer is a throwback DL. Tough as nails. Absolute badass IMO and the Rams made a great call paying him.

Good call! I went back & changed it we have 9 projected selections for the 2022 draft. You know that Snead will be very happy with all those 6th round selections!

Good call! I went back & changed it we have 8 projected selections for the 2022 draft.

Thanks for your work on it - it's a really good summary of where we stand!

 

[Psycho_X]

I do expect Troy Hill to get a sizeable contract much higher than Ebukam or Everett. I expect to see at least an $8 million year deal for Hill that might provide the Rams a 5th rd comp pick in place of a 6th rd pick. Reynolds should fall into the Morgan Fox range. So for right now, this is how it's going for Snead.

Man you think for Hill? Never been as high on him as others seem to be. He's a great tackler and I like his aggressiveness for his size but coverage skills have been suspect at times. Was thinking in the $4-5 average. If he goes elsewhere that'd be great if someone spends enough to get a 5th out of him.

Actually we get that 7th for Talib. I think we already gave them a pick for Talib, and we get this one back.

If they get a 5th for Hill, they will have 2- 3rds, 4th, 2-5ths, 3- 6ths, 2- 7ths.

Some ammo to move up and improve some positions in early rounds...or more swings in the latter rounds.

He was a starting corner on a playoff team in the NFL. He is now in his prime & never had an injury. Hill came from riding the PS for several seasons & had a rough start with learning how to make good decisions...brain not fully grown in stuff. Hill can play in all types of different schemes demanded in the NFL today. Hill can play outside the Nickle or in dime situations. I get you we all have had issues with Hill throughout his Ram career. But good starting corners get paid!

Regarding Talib...

Correct!
The Los Angeles Rams have traded cornerback Aqib Talib to the Miami Dolphins.The teams also exchanged draft picks with a fifth-round pick headed to Miami and a 2022 seventh-rounder headed to Los Angeles.

I think you can mark as "checked" the big contract for Hill. Nice call. He may even get us a fourth for his deal (4 years $24M).
