That is an old and expensive roster. Even a guy like Jalen Ramsey who is still in his prime and I don’t include in the “old” category currently will be 30 in a couple years. For comparison, Darrelle Revis was pretty much done after 30. Aaron Donald is already 31. The writing is on the wall, that team will be full of cast offs and overpaid free agents in a couple years because they have no draft picks. That 2025 draft pick looks juicy, and the ‘24 has a very decent chance of being a top 15 draft pick.

Which is why they are making the offer, but you can’t kick the can down the road forever. This sets us up to be the team that cashes in when their checks inevitably bounce, and they WILL eventually. This is the only time this type of deal is available. If there was no hope they wouldn’t offer the picks, but there is WAY more risk on the Rams part than there was a season or two ago when they started down this road, and their window will slam shut for years when it closes. Also, the injury bug tends to visit older teams.

Even if none of those happens, they aren’t a very good team. They are an old team getting older, and have no way to get better outside of free agency because they traded away all their draft picks. They currently have a losing record and are third in their division and it looks like it will only get worse for them.

Aaron Donald flirted with retirement as well. Imagine those guys leave and Cooper Kupp gets injured or something. All of a sudden we’re talking top 5 picks.

I honestly wonder if the deal is still on the table. I think this is the deal we heard about last week that was turned down. They may have taken it off the table after he missed Mariota Sunday.

Depends on the picks and the players. Pretty silly to pretend any player on this team doesn’t have a price, maybe you disagree on the price but that’s a different story.

The Rams are currently a 3-4 aging vet team without draft picks to get younger. They mortgaged their future for the SB run. Those first round picks in ‘24 and ‘25 could be incredibly valuable. I like Burns but I think the Rams are not looking like a future playoff team and those picks could both be top 15 picks, if not top 10. It would be a mistake not to take the deal. Maybe see if they’ll throw in a mid round pick this year just to give them even less to build a competent team with.

We’re #3 in draft, otherwise yeah. We can’t put the game in the hands of a kicker who we signed off the street when our real kicker got injured.

The sad reality is if you play for the Panthers you can’t give the refs any excuse.

He’s a chump on and off the court.

Looks like 6 out of 10. I’d venture a guess that’s about the best hit rate you could expect.

Getting a bonus from Tepper today for sure.

Who wants to lose this more?

So nobody said that right?

Just curious who here has ever said it guarantees he’s going to be good.

Would love to see Greg Maye throwing darts to Donald Lafell.

I think it’s more about the concerts and other events at BOA, which is ridiculous because BOA is first and foremost a football stadium. Unfortunately, we have an owner who’d rather put a feather in his cap and sit at a podium and brag about how he single handedly “brought music to Charlotte” because we were all such uncultured savages before who had never been to a concert.

Why did the whole article just get copy/pasted?

This take on Fields is different than all the others I’ve seen. I don’t watch him play but I just checked his stats. What am I missing?

Does he even take pictures anymore? Legit question.

Lol the explanation is actually worse. That means he and Evans were so deep into friendly conversation at some point that they made it all the way to the topic of golf lessons. What buffoons.

I seriously doubt the Eagles are offering the Saints pick in any trade package. As of right now that is the #5 overall pick.

Oh boy, I’ve got bad news for you on the Hornets

I think a lot of people just had unrealistic expectations of his trade value. This isn’t Madden.

The Hornets are the type of franchise that would get the #1 pick and trade Wembanyama for the #4 pick and 5 second round picks.
