I get a feeling this offseason is gonna be fun to watch.

(maybe not so much for us)

It's gonna be fun for me just waiting to see how Gettleman goes about righting the ship. I am waiting with much anticipation to see who we acquire in FA and the draft.

I suppose it's not gonna be fun for those who really believed that we were going to sack Rivera, but they should get over it.

Doesn't Matter LA will run them out after 5 years the the city is not a NFL focused area..too many crackheads and transplants!! How many teams do they need to get?? Hell the Chargers could be there next.. They need to hire Eric Dickerson, if they want to set poo right with the Rams!!!

I agree top dawg, though I may be of a different mindset of what caused the ship to go off course. DG finally is out of cap hell and will be able to spend a bit more on veterans to fill holes. Don't expect any huge names but could see some solid guys brought in, especially at TE, DE, SS, WR, etc. 

I'm most excited about what will be, by far, the best draft stock that DG has ever had. 8th overall and a 3rd round comp... Ooh boy.

What I most want to see but am not so confident will happen is Shula and Dorsey both long gone. I'm still 95% behind Rivera and that 5% is only due to him being blindly loyal to his staff. DG forced his hand with ST a little while ago so I hope either Ron makes the decision on those two now, or SG forces his hand again. 

Even if that doesn't happen I'll be very excited to get guys back from injury and for other personnel improvements. Some important FAs but anticipate we'll have no problems keeping them aside from KK. Addison may be tougher but think we'll be able to hold him.

KK will be one of the most interesting storylines. Have a gut feeling DG will bank on Butler and let KK walk but tag is also very possible, maybe even likely. I'd be cool with a good extension (not top 3-5 DT money).

Oher's situation will be interesting as well, and a possible Smitty 1 day contract and possible Peppers homecoming...

All in all, much more excited about this offseason than last year's coming off the SB loss.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
