he'll be smackin stripper bitches left and right...his words, not mine
I'm sure all will be lining up to be donning his jersey in Miami. I just received a text message from my cousin in Boca (we all have a cousin in Florida) and she doesn't even follow football. "Hey Den, did you know the Dolphins just go Tyreek Hill?" He's the toast of South Beach presently.

Every team trying to do what the Rams did now.

Agreed I've been saying this going back to ogletree ...it's like it was a lightbulb started slow but then it's like 1-3 trades every season if not more and again stupid pundits say NFL has been trading for years Rams didn't aren't doing anything new.... Duh a-holes but not at this rate and not with stars and the "fuck the picks" plan which seems to be catching like wildfire because teams are giving them picks up like candy now. It's not that the Rams invented trading or trading your picks it's that they took an existing path and turned the path into a full blown highway!!!!!

Suck it Media!!

is there really anyone on this board who wouldn't trade tutu for humphrey? Our 6th receiving option for the top rated center under a rookie contract which would enable the rams to trade allen and his contract to another team while improving the position? Yet, I feel like there are people who don't see it that way, and that's fine...you just shouldn't be able vote.
I'd trade for Creed in a heartbeat. I was just trying to make a joke to highlight some of the discussion here over the topic!

Tired of the "buy a super team" type BS. Every team has the same amount of cap to spend. None have an advantage in that respect. It's how each team spends that money that matters. The Rams spent theirs smarter. They signed the right guys and put the pieces together. No advantage was given and every player they signed could have gone to any team in the league if they made the right deal but they didn't and they were jealous.

Man I've said this before but everyone copying our "fuck them picks" philosophy is not necessarily a good thing for us. I think that strategy worked for us in part because not many others were doing it.

Also, an important part of that strategy is replenishing those picks with comp picks. I don't see the Dolphins getting many comp picks so it seems like they might be using a half-baked version of our strategy. More power to them.

Either Demoff or Snead had openly gone out and said that we're doing it because others aren't. If you're doing the same exact thing as everyone else then you have to be better than everyone else to consistently make that work. If you're doing something different you'll get different results and you can adjust from there to maximize those results. If everybody is using picks for remote players and they move a lot, that's not great for our strategy as is. We'll need to adapt to the next level of this, whatever the hell that is.

I absolutely hate that fucking prick. He's talented, but an utter scumbag. Miami giving him that much money and that many picks to get him is stupid.

They lose Hill, I feel they will be in trouble. The OL does not run block all that well and their running backs have not showcased the ability to run consistently.

JuJu offers a different dynamic, but nobody is as fast as Hill IMHO. The Chief defense has been up & down based on injuries and although I just will never buy into the Raiders plus I feel Nathaniel Hackett will be overmatched, it could happen as I believe the Chargers are the top of that division currently barring injuries.

SJD69 & Mack in Staley’s system is going to make that defense tough.
Went to a few of there training camps.Was really impressed with there young DB’s .. FS was an issue? The size of there CB’s is another issue? MLB was young,but I think this defense will really start to grow & gel.

DD21 is small than there DB’s and there skill sets are better.Eric Hadden is an example of undersized.
MLB - The Rams and Staley had Troy Reeder as there MLB just to give comparisons.I’ll add Chargers had some young beef upfront. I don’t know what they have in draft picks.

Each season is different.I don’t know exactly what The Rams have totally.I was 1 of the first to say Ben Sko was going to make The Rams roster.

I’m always going to keep it Rams.It is still fun to be able to evaluate talent in sports. Will also say I’m good at it.
An example as I thought about it. Just checked the GS Warriors score 3/23.
Was wondering about Stef. . Saw that Green & Thompson were out.Then looked at the box score against Miami,who I didn’t know had the best record innThe East & was playing the Heat until the wire came across.
I’d say look out for the warriors.Wow - that you talent is impressive.I don’t know how they just did it.There depth and long range shooting is crazy.

Man, apparently the Jets went big on their offer too.

If I was choosing between cold New Jersey/New York with high taxes or sunny South Beach and no taxes....hmmm, what would I take?

It probably wasn’t a tough choice for Hill.

But, I wonder what that full Jets offer was? It must have been a couple of more 2nd/3rd rounders to have been the Chief’s choice.
