With Manny Muchado at the doorstep of becoming a Los Angeles Dodger, Le Bron James already a Laker, Shohei Ohtani's impact on the Angeles & Zlatan Ibrahimovic joining the Galaxy this year, I started to wonder which player acquisition would make the biggest impact on their teams season in Los Angeles, including the Rams best free agent acquisition of course...

Then it hit me, I don't even know if there is a consensus on who that Rams' player acquisition is... :noidea:

I mean I have my thoughts, but I figured I'd leave it up to you all to vet it out.

Cast your vote for the Rams player you think will have the biggest impact on 'this Season' but leave your comments on both this Season and total impact as a Rams player for what you think their projected career in horns will be. (This will allow you to project, with comments, if the Rams will extend any of these players beyond their current deals)

Tough question, Talib will provide much needed Championship veteran leadership to a defense in need of it, Talib will be Wade's on the field mouth piece. Peters will come to rely on that leadership. Suh is hungry and has something more to prove than anyone other free agent. While Cooks is also hungry and wants to prove he deserves that commitment he has gotten. I go with Talib if I was forced to choose.

I am going with Suh for the season. Yeah, yeah, I know, a lot of you remember during his draft in 10', I wanted the other guy. :rolleyes2:

I still stand by that, but now we have a talented QB behind Center and another stud on the DL, actually 'The' Stud! (AD)

I picked Suh because pairing him with Donald, it allowed us to rid contracts like Quinn & Tree which in turn allowed us to get all the other free agents.

Also, with both AD and Suh anchoring the line, we are able to gamble a bit with the LB crew, especially since with Easley, Brockers and Westbrooks in the mix.

As for the long term, I am not sure that Brandin Cooks isn't the right choice, unless, we win the SB this season and sign Suh & Talib to team friendly deals.

Just hoping that the prospects that we got from the Dodgers end up panning out for us since our farm still needs a lot of work.

Cooks will look good but the defense may look better. Could be quite the show Vita.


Gonna have to come up with a different term than GSOT tho ;)

And What is this Dodger and Laker shit on here??


Is LeBron playing TE or Muchacha the kicker for the Rams?


Muchacho couldn’t hold Greg Zs jock with 2 hands

Not that it affects the prospects, but from a personal perspective I hate that you moved your AAA affiliate from Rochester. Forcing us to change to the Twins wasn't nice, lol.

I picked Cooks as he is the only one without distractions for his next contract.

Well, the move to Ottawa was baffling but at least Norfolk is a lot closer for us lol

I went with Suh because 1) they didn't give up anything to get him and 2) if it doesn't work, they aren't stuck with him long term

2 sides to that coin though; if he blows up, he's almost certainly gone next year
