Rams Current News & Events!

I think you guys are smoking something! I'll be shocked if they get rid of Foles! There's no rookies worth a crap out there. Not much in free agency either. Unless they take a chance on RG3. I honestly think that we will keep Foles for 1 more year. If he sucks again then we dump him. He is under contract.

The only reason to dump him would be to draft another, if that is their intent.

If we cut him it will be at the end of the 2016 season, because his dead money number is only $750,000. It is 8 million prior to the 2016 season. His cap # for 2016 is only $8,750,000. So IMO...that is fairly cheap.

The only other option is if someone trades for him, which I find highly unlikely. Foles will be a Ram in 2016!

Besides, the Eagles organization denied the rumor days ago.

I think RG3 would be hilarious. All the picks we got and then bring him to run the read option with Gurley.. But we have to get a LT that can pass block. I just don't see G Rob finally grasping pass blocking.

We will rally around (insert name) and play good football!

That ranch has been for sale a while now...People scoffed at the price due to the family still wanting to retain certain mineral and oil rights even after the sale...Wonder what the details were...

 

[Retroram52]

When you have the kind of cash that Kroneke and his Walton wife have readily available, 750 large is no big deal. Just another day at the office for that limp noodle.

It said they had 1000 oil wells operating on the property so I'm guessing it includes mineral rights. Can't imagine he'd not get the mineral rights in that area. Just north of there in OK it's the SCOOP formation where so many big operators are drilling.

Right after they announced that the Rams were moving to LA, Jerry Jones made a public announcement stating how great this was for the league. I'm thinking these 2 a buds and must be Stan is moving closer to him.

me too, and I'll bet Fisher does too! Remember the coin flip in Washington? I would like to see him in horns.

They won't cut him this year, that would be essentially paying him his full salary to play elsewhere. The hope would be for the Eagles (or someone else) to trade for him. That guaranteed $6M roster bonus is a killer.

If the Rams decide to draft a QB, they'll have to either deal Foles or cut Keenum, as I doubt they're ready to cut Mannion.

 

[Retroram52]

Dumbasses should have never given Foles that contract extension before the season before they knew what they really had or how Foles would react and progress (or digress) under the "Rams way".

 

[shopson67]

The extension was a bad idea, but giving up on him so quickly seems wrong too.

 

[Red_Chaos]

Dad and i was doing the math on that ranch and it wasn't a bad deal considering how much land goes for or was going for (its headed a bit south now) but then you have to figure in 10 arces for each cow and there was alot of cows...

 

[shopson67]

That's just an enormous plot of land. Good deal if you have the capital to afford it.

On top of all the cattle, there are also oil wells.
