I found Von Miller annoying even as a Ram. You can tell he is an intelligent dude when he speaks, but the persona was irritating, or at least I found it so.
The cowboy hats, the social media addresses, the need to be in the media at all times.... it all just seemed unprofessional to me. Not in an out-of-line way, but it just seemed so juvenile. I might expect that from a college player or a rookie. Or someone without much NFL experience, or with NFL experience but no real experience being a star in the NFL e.g. a later career breakout player. In those cases, you might expect less maturing, or the novelty of being a star getting to a player. But Von is going on 34 years old! He has been a superstar for many years in the NFL. Come on.
I certainly appreciated his contributions as a Ram and was hoping that we could re-sign him. He is the epitome of a big-game player that steps up in the biggest moments. And there is zero way that we would have won the Super Bowl without him, IMO, so he was well worth the price paid to acquire him, even if not retained.
But he was always annoying.
And he is x10 more annoying now that he is not only on another roster, but apparently keen to entice players away from signing in LA!
