Ramsey, Donald, and now Miller

The Rams were pretty good with a decent Goff.

The Lions sucked consistently with a much better QB than Goff in Matthew Stafford.

They switch and the Lions still suck while the Rams are better than they were with Goff and Stafford looks like he's a kid again.

Von Miller may be in the twilight of his career, but let him play situational downs opposite Aaron Donald and he'll have an immediate impact.

hopefully people will realize you can’t just plug in a good QB on a garbage team and franchise and expect results

but they probably won’t

Stafford made the right choice taking the Rams over Carolina.  Von Miller to LA is crazy. That guy totally beat the sh%t out of us in the SB and now he is with those two monsters.

L.A going all in and the Bronco's fans must be sick with this trade. Definitly the favorites to take it all now.

No, Rivera & Shula totally beat the sh%t out of us in the SB by not blocking him over and over again, while calling developing plays that took longer to develop that the QB had to throw.

They have a bleak, bleak future. My goodness. No first rounder until what? 2024? And just traded another 2nd and 3rd. They better win a Super Bowl these next few years, or that franchise will be in shambles.

Nah man kinda like the Lakers they’ll always be a destination free agents want to go to they don’t need draft picks as much as franchises like ours do. As long as they hit on their later round picks and they do an outstanding job of that mixed with good trades/free agent pick ups they’re going to be more than alright. Super interesting (to me) how they build their roster.

Great point. Certainly seems like the exception and not the rule. I think Miami could pull this off but Ross runs a terrible organization. I don't think anyone else could pull this strategy off and be as successful.

As much as I can't stand Von Miller as a football player, the Rams look like superbowl contenders to me.

They do, they do, but right now a lot of teams in the NFC look like legit contenders (GB, Tampa, Arizona, Dallas). The way injuries are hitting the league right now, any one of those teams could falter before the playoffs.

This is a weird, weird year.

For sure it’s definitely not a strategy most any other team could pull off.

    • I look at it like get on top of the situation. Stay ahead of it. If it costs you a year of not drafting a starter at number three WR in the first so be it. We need new blood there in 2027 if not 2026, and need to get some OL on rookie deals.   At the same time the big picture is considered, we have a QB that has yet to earn an extension and you can go glass half full if you want but he had about half the good games that he needed to have. Fewer, IMO, but the point is he is not a lock to earn an extension.    Which would really put next year’s number one in play for QB and take OT off the table. So I think it needs to be on the table this year.  
    • Feels like they just changed like 2 years ago.
    • https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-offensive-line-success-why-building-through-the-nfl-draft-is-the-key   Conclusions drawn This article took a deep dive into evaluating recent offensive line trends regarding the draft and free agency while incorporating team success into the equation. Here are the biggest takeaways:   The best offensive lines in football (PHI, DET, TB) were built through the draft in the early rounds Other teams (most notably LAC) are following the same approach in team building Offensive line is something a team should target in the early rounds (1-3), as the success rate significantly declines in the later rounds both in the short and long-term Offensive tackles have a higher success rate through the draft than interior offensive linemen, regardless of round Acquiring free agent offensive line does have its benefits, particularly for elite units filling one hole. Interior offensive is typically the way to go Top-end offensive line talent is far less likely to be available via trade or free agency compared to other positions year to year, only emphasizing the importance of the draft   My words: we were forced to make some big signings on interior after years of poor OL drafting and neglect. It worked but isnt sustainable. We need to get right. Drafting tackles high is a successful formula. We need to start now to have any hope going forward.
