This could very well happen more so than the Rams losing Staley. The downside is we lose one of the premier evaluators of NFL talent. The upside is we get two third rounders as compensation if Brad Holmes goes.

And how does that affect the Rams drafts?

they have been very good in the draft the past 4 season ( especially with no 1st round picks ) in identifying talent in the mid to late rounds.

a lot of that has to do with guys like Holmes, not just Snead and McVay.

Hey can we make this happen before Saturday game with the Packers? Haha

Terrible trade for the Rams.

they would have to give up more draft capital and absorb like 50m in cap hit for both QB’s next season ( as they will still be responsible for Goff’s cap hi

they can’t afford to do that financially. It’s impossible to absorb that much money.

if the Rams are truly done with Goff, trade him and get picks back and let Wolford be the guy and Perkins the backup.

There is talk Farmer may get poached as well, which would net the Rams another (2) 3rds, but be another hit to the organization.

Our drafting gurus are all on the same page. My guess is they find more talent like they have done on the field or off.

Terrible no

nothing is impossible. But I do not have a problem letting these younger mobile QBs have a run at QB either. Might be able to trade a 3rd rounder for Darnold as well.

but if the Rams think they can make Watson work I’m all for letting them roll the dice. They done a really good job adding talent thru the draft and trading picks. Goff was a Fisher trade.

I just don’t see how giving up more picks AND paying the cap hit for Goff and paying Watson his increasing salary is advantageous to the Rams overall success.

they are already in cap hell with Goff, Donald and Ramsey, plus Gurley’s cap hit to the point they can’t even afford to keep all their upcoming FA’s.

about to lose Johnson most likely, and several other key guys on the roster. Can’t afford to waste more cap and draft picks to trade for Watson.

best to find a taker for Goff and get what they can, and roll with Wolford and Perkins if they are indeed done with Goff after this season ( which I highly doubt is the case ).

Well you certainly can’t just keep building a championship roster and have your QB continue to lead in turnovers since 2017-2018 either.

And you can’t build a championship roster with no draft picks or salary cap room because eventually all those players will leave because you have no money to keep them and no one to replace them because you lack draft picks.

I personally would like to see a 1st round pick in the Snead/McVay era and that won’t happen if they trade for Watson because they would probably have to give up 1, maybe 2 first rounders to trade for him.

Yet the Rams doing it.. just with a garbage QB.

Seems the Rams know what they’re doin. Go back 10 years ago and think about we were at.

picks for 2021 so far:

2nd
3rd
3rd for Holmes
3rd for Fowler
4th Littleton
6th
7th


here’s a breakdown—
With a third-round compensatory pick coming in 2021, here’s an updated look at the Rams’ projected draft picks this year.

  • 1st round: Traded to Jacksonville for Jalen Ramsey
  • 2nd round: Rams’ pick
  • 3rd round: Rams’ pick + Holmes compensatory pick
  • 4th round: Traded to Jacksonville for Ramsey
  • 5th round: Traded to Cleveland for Austin Corbett
  • 6th round: Rams’ pick
  • 7th round: Rams’ pick
In addition to these picks, the Rams are also likely to receive compensatory picks for losing Dante Fowler Jr. and Cory Littleton. Fowler’s would come in the third round, with Littleton’s being valued at a fourth-rounder,

Yep. Holmes is gonso to Detroit as their GM. DC from the whiners, Robert Saleh gets hired by the Jets. Urban Meyer goes to the Jags. That leaves the Eagles and the Chargers. Staley is looking more and more like he is staying with the Rams.
