Michel to the Rams

Not a fleecing by any means. But if it becomes a 4th, it's a good trade for NE. They weren't going to resign him anyway.


Rams get a good RB who has been showing more ability to catch the ball this preseason. He should do well. Just hope he can stay healthy?

Obviously I should've used the green font. Didn't think it was necessary as the Rams are almost made fun of daily for all the picks they gave away. Oh well, live and learn.

Made fun, Rams have made good trades. Ramsey was much better value. Stafford will too.

You need a good mix of vets and rookies to be succesful.

The Rams are missing out on restocking thru the draft. This causes at least two problems. First vets cost more. They also normally are on shorter contracts which means renegotiating or losing them. Giving a team a small window.

Sure you can hit on some late picks, see Seattle was it 2010-12? Now they're suffering with depth issues.

In spite of not having 1sts, the Rams are pretty good at drafting.

Michel was a disappointment in New England for sure but I thought this was the year he'd break out.. Oh well. Wish him the best

Trade the 2nd round pick immediately! We suck at drafting in the first two rounds. We kill it in the 5th, 6th, 7th tho.

 

[SJ76]

Here’s what I found. 4 sixth rounders!! That’s where we kill it lol


The final estimated tally is as follows: second round – 1 (one), third round – 2 (two), fourth-round – 1 (one), fifth round – 1 (one), sixth round – 4 (four), seventh round – 2 (two). Total – 11 (eleven)

Why do so many think he was a disappointment?
Minus last year he averaged over 900 yards on the ground.
Had three fumbles in three years. Averaged 100 yds per playoff game. 6.5 TDs during the regular season. 2 TDs per playoff game in 2018.

So minus the injury bug???

I guess it's more of the expectations of what he should have been (where he was drafted) and how people were supposedly really "sold" on him.

Breakout year for Harris?

He always seemed like a bit of a reach in NE. This is probably a win/win. I do agree that Michel still has value over a replaceable Running Back but he does have an injury history and he isnt a guy you want to commit to long-term.

I was actually looking back at my RB rankings coming out and I was never super high on Michel. I'd also be a little worried about trading with the Patriots. Odds are you aren't going to get more out of him than the Patriots did. Beggars can't be choosers, though, and the Rams really didnt commit a whole lot. Fournette was big in important games for the Bucs last year. Michel could fill that type of roll for a team trying to win a Super Bowl.

Between his injury history and the Pats always RB by committee it’s tough for any RB to dominate in NE imo

Hopefully he can stay healthy

While in Georgia, Michel was really dominant in light boxes where he could just turn on the jets. The Rams have the potential to be a top 5 pass offense with Stafford, Kupp, Woods, etc. If thats the case, Michel can do his thing. Assuming everyone can stay healthy. Thats a very different surrounding than what NE has had as of late.

Rams will also pick up another RB when the right one gets waive here soon or down the road.

If the Rams wanted a RB with knee injuries they could have just signed Gurley, instead they give up a 4th for one lol

younger than Gurley and in better shape
1st/2nd round talent
Rams still have 9-10 picks in 2022
Sony was having a great camp
Rams need RB help bad and this fits good


don’t see the down side here at all

Nope, good for both teams if Michel can stay healthy.

healthy or not we had to roll the dice. Now we just need to trade our 2nd rounder before we select another 5’8 135 WR in 2022. Mine as well get a Olineman and 4th and 5th rounder with that pick right now.
