If they were going to trade a WR, Woods makes the most sense.

1) he offers the most cap relief if traded
2) he would garner better draft pick(s)
3) his play is very similar to OBJ’s and therefore easier to replace if the do indeed sign OBJ.

Trading Jefferson makes way less sense

1) he has a very low cap number
2) they won’t get back the 2nd round value they used on him in the first place
3) he is by far the best deep threat they have. He averaged 16 ypc last season. The next closest guy is Kupp at 13.4

They don’t need 4 WR’s that are exact mirrors of each other in Woods, Kupp, Robinson and OBJ.

Everyone knows Robinson has trouble creating separation and gets a lot of his catches on crossing routes and 50/50 jump balls.

They need a guy like Jefferson to provide a deep threat the other 4 guys don’t provide.

Jefferson is not a deep threat. I’d rather have Woods than Jefferson. I don’t care about the 4th or 5th rounder for either


Staffford will throw deep to anyone. He’s not Jared Goff remember?

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Why only one year?

Why not sign him to 2-3 years for cheap?

They have been looking for a legit returner for years and finally found one. Why not lock him up for longer?

You either have a hatred for Jefferson or you don’t like stats.

Has to be one of the 2 for you to say Jefferson is not a deep threat.

Again, he led the team in ypc at 16.0

The next closest is Kupp at 13.4

Both Woods and OBJ were in the 12’s

Second, he has receptions of 79, 68, 67 and 52 this past season.

The highest Kupp had was 70 and it didn’t come until the playoffs. His season long was 59.

Woods long was 28 and OBJ had one 54 yarder.

He was 6th best receiver in the NFL this season in ypc.

That is a big difference for a guy you claim isn’t a deep threat. The one deep shot Stafford took in the SB was to Jefferson, who had Bates beat in the back of the end zone but Stafford threw it short.

Stafford throws deep to everyone. Jefferson is a not a #2 WR. Did you watch the Super Bowl? If his contract is up next year and he’s a #3 WR at best, why not move him after a good year? You could package VJ and a 5th and get another Corbett.

He also gets less targets and catches than Kupp so yeah stats are misleading. Lmao just because a guys YPC is high doesn’t make him a deep threat.


Then again I am talking to a guy that hated the Stafford move and still thinks Jared Goff could win a super bowl lol

You can’t throw deep if there is no one to throw deep to.

Jefferson had the 3 longest receptions of the regular season. That is not just a coincidence.

And the Rams can’t keep 3 WR’s making 15M per year and have a decent team all around. Something has to be sacrificed whether that be quality depth or quality starters at other positions. Especially with Stafford’s new extension that pays him $43M per year.

That’s 88M+ a year for 4 players. And that doesn’t even account for the new contract they need to give Donald to convince him to come back.

They need help on the OL still as well as the secondary and LB.

Where is the money coming from to address those weaknesses? They have to free up cap space somewhere, and trading Woods would be a logical place to start.

A 6th for Woods?

WTF?

Rams’ 2018 draft shows why you can’t judge a class after one year

The Rams' 2018 draft class didn't look great after one season, but four years later, the outlook has changed dramatically

They gotta bring back Beckham now.

A 6th though? You telling me they can't get at least.....a 4th rounder for him?

It pick is not surprising.

What is surprising is it’s for 2023, and not this year.

Working against the Rams were: 1) Rams were due to give Woods a signing bonus today if not traded, 2) he is 30 and coming off an ACL injury and 3) he makes 15M+ a year, not an easy contract to trade.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

They gotta bring back Beckham now.

Hopefully the money they save by trading Woods goes to OBJ.

Once again you forget. Stafford to Kupp vs Tampa? Last play of the game?

Was that deep? Lol

 

[SJ76]

Word is Detroit wanted Woods for a 4th or 5th but the Rams wouldn’t do that to Bobby Trees lol

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

A 6th though? You telling me they can't get at least.....a 4th rounder for him?

The market was set when Cooper was traded for A 5th and swap of 6th rounders, and he isn’t coming off an ACL Injury.

All a moot point now since Woods is gone.
