Please no…..he has never impressed me

I don't know anything about him, but I just mean if we are going to suck, let's get the #1 pick.

Yep, followed Roger Saffold apparently. I don't think the Rams are going to sign any of their FAs that played significant minutes. The new O-line is going to be Noteboom, Anchrum, Allen, Bruss, Havenstein and Stafford is going to be running for his life ALL next season. Ten-to-One the shiftferbrains twins ain't selecting any O-linemen in this draft. They may take the Wisconsin Center Tippmann but they are going to wiff on Zavaka, any Tackle, and Mafi unless they can get Mafi as an UDFA. Stupid bastards are just too full of themselves.

Replaced Saffold apparently. Roger is a FA.

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

So we have 11 mil in cap room and about 15 roster spots to fill? Sounds great

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Brian Allen will be back.... yay??

The one guy I wanted to see gone.

This just means McVay will bypass center yet again to play his boy.

I don't know anything about him, but I just mean if we are going to suck, let's get the #1 pick.

Fine, but still not him. Reminds me of a less talented cam newton

Nah, it’s the Hollywood effect.

In reality, the Rams are less Hollywood and more like the homeless camps invading the city sidewalks.

As a matter of fact, the homeless camps might have more money to spend than the Rams do in FA.

I think is was very unfair of Ramsey to hamstring the Rams the way he did.

After what they invested in him with the draft picks and salary, he totally screwed them in the end by saying he only wanted to be traded to Miami.

That left the Rams with no leverage. They actually had better offers from other teams, but because Ramsey only wanted to play in Miami, the Rams were forced to “do good by him” as he turns the knife in their back on the way out.

What a selfish dude to screw the team that did right by you and broke you out of Jacksonville hell.

 

[Jermaine133]

man sceew that.. i would have traded his ass to the highest bidder . sorry but you gave up 7 tds last yr, not 1 but 7... Would have sent him to the whoever gave a 1st or 2nd

Season Ticket Members,
The consistent hallmark of our team under Sean McVay and Les Snead has been aggressive moves in pursuit of Super Bowl titles. While this year may feel different given the first two weeks of the offseason, make no mistake, we expect to compete for the NFC West division title this season and make a run towards Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas.
We always knew that there would be a time when we would have to pull back on our typical approach to help continue our sustained run of success. In the past, when we traded for younger Pro Bowl players who would command new contracts – Sammy Watkins, Marcus Peters, Brandin Cooks, Jalen Ramsey – we had the long-term salary cap flexibility to take on those new contracts. If we wanted to acquire short-term players such as Dante Fowler or Von Miller, we had the extra draft capital to do so to help us make a Super Bowl push, which happened in both cases.
During the trade deadline this past year, it was clear that in a new era where teams were willing to be as aggressive as we were that we had neither the draft capital nor the salary cap space to win trade conversations and be able to take on top players at the salaries they would command.
As a result, we faced a choice this offseason. We could once again restructure contracts to give ourselves one last shot with our core roster but that would mean a total rebuild would be necessary over the next few seasons. Or we could focus on replenishing our draft capital and improving our long-term salary cap situation, clearing the way for us to compete both now and in the future.
Collectively as an organization, we chose the latter path, believing in the talent on our current roster and the skills of our coaching staff to return us to the playoffs. As we sit today, we have 11 draft picks in this year's draft, including three in the top 77. We have nearly all of our picks in 2024 to both build next year and have as capital to make trades at this year's trade deadline. From a salary cap perspective, while we have had to move on from players who helped us lift a Lombardi Trophy at SoFi Stadium, we have taken all of our salary cap pain in 2023 and project to have more than $60 million in space in 2024, the most salary cap space we have had since our move to Los Angeles.
Let me be clear – our goal for 2023 is to win the NFC West and make a deep playoff run. Change doesn't mean that we expect to take a step back. Our Super Bowl LVI starting lineup featured 19 starters (out of 22) that didn't start in Super Bowl LIII just three years prior. Matthew Stafford, Cooper Kupp and Aaron Donald all enter this offseason as fresh as they have been in a few seasons and hungry to return to their Super Bowl form. We are excited to have young players such as Cam Akers, Cobie Durant, Van Jefferson and Ernest Jones take on more prominent roles. Sean has assembled a new coaching staff with a focus on great teachers, communicators, and different backgrounds to collaborate and figure out the best way to go win the NFC.

We know what a privilege it is to be Los Angeles' team and with that comes great expectations. It is not enough to win just one championship, even when you win that one at home. Our vision and mandate from ownership has always been for sustained success and multiple Lombardi trophies. Under Sean and Les' leadership, we are confident that this plan will allow us to compete and contend not only for this year but for years to come, and we can't wait to see you at SoFi Stadium this fall to start that journey together.
Thank you for your continued support and Go Rams!

Wasn't sure of the right face to put to this joke of an email you posted.... Demoff "we expect to compete for the NFC West division title" WTF???

 

[Retroram52]

Like I stated earlier, Stafford is going to run for his life ALL season with Notebook at LT and Allen at Center. Bruss at RG isn't exactly stellar either and I seriously doubt the shitferbrains twins will get better O-lineman in this draft. Guys like Zavaka, Mafi, and maybe Jones.

Supposedly, Atlanta might try to trade for Stafford after June 1st. I'll believe it when I see it.

I think it makes sense. What else can the Rams do at this point. They won the all coveted Lombardi trophy by going all in. I think every other team in the league would take that regardless of how it would devastate the salary cap. Now its rebuilding time but rebuilding with a great core of players on both sides of the line. I will keep the faith until I see it fail. Will the Rams reach the NFC championship? probably not but stranger things have happened. The Rams will seek team captains in the Draft and team captains are football smart. Keep the faith.

 

[Retroram52]

The latest CBS sports mock has the Rams trading into the First Round at pick 16 to take the big strong-armed QB from Kentucky, Will Levis. The proposed trade would be for First Round pick 16 from Detroit and the Rams would give up picks 36 and 77 this year and a Second Rounder in 2024. Then the Rams would select Calijah Kancey, the supposed AD clone out of Pittsburgh with pick 69. If the Rams do that, that would be a good start to the draft for a change. Then they should field offers for Stafford to get more picks this year.

 

[Retroram52]

There are a few articles suggesting the Rams got fleeced by Ramsey and they had better offers from other teams. The shitferbrains twins got snookered again. Get that Demoff out of the front office and quit giving players these huge contracts ahead of time hamstringing the Rams ultimately.

And he can't take another season of hit after hit.. Rams need to upgrade the OL, but I don't think it will happen. Think 2022 Tampa Bay Bucs.

The Rams said "they wanted to do the right by him" and send Jalen where he wanted to go. I've never heard of such a thing. Ramsey had to leave because he wanted a new contract and the Rams weren't going to give it to him.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Only 4 players from Sean McVay's first 3 drafts are still on the Rams

The Rams only have 4 players still under contract from their 2017-2019 draft classes

theramswire.usatoday.com

No players from the 2019 draft left on the Rams.

That is how you set the team back several years.
