A lot of people keep saying “we aren’t competing anytime soon.”

 

Too much randomness and parody in the NFL to say that. 
 

Hell, this team is an extra point away from being 2-1 with PJ Walker and Wilks. 
 

We have cornerstone players at the most premium positions outside of QB. 

 

This team isn’t ass. 

This team isnt ass but we are 2-5.  This year is a wrap.  Looking towards next season we more then likely are looking at a rookie starting at some point.  Historically rookies dont win right off the bat.  So thats 1.5 seasons of more losing we are in store for which aligns perfectly with this deal

DE is arguably the second most important position on the field, and we'd basically be trading a pro bowler / potential star for what'll probably be 2 picks in the mid to late twenties two and three years from now.

I'd pass unless they are sure they can't re sign him... Salary cap is malleable.  I don't think he walks.

2 future 1st isn't enough and Akers shouldn't be on that table. They would have to throw in a player who isn't ruined by injuries for just those picks to work. It just doesn't seem like a great deal for us...yet. 

I do expect those picks to be valuable with how the Rams are operating. Seems like they are hell bent on burning through their future and I have no idea how they plan to deal with their cap or lack of picks in the future in 2 years.

Much like cmac I think a lot of you are way overvaluing the impact of burns.  Yes he is good, yes he could be great but he is not worth nearly what you are proposing above

I’d take two future firsts and a second next year. We can turn those into most likely two(extra) first round picks next year(with the CMC picks). Unless we know Wilks is going to be the coach next year we need to play for capital.

Cash out on those picks. It sucks they will be so far in the future, but the Rams are due for a MAJOR fall off. it has already started but they're trying to trade their future to get back to the SB. those picks could be from a non-playoff team if Stafford is starting to lose it and Kupp starts aging. Burns isn't going to turn the tide by himself and he's a pass rusher only. 

Yeah I don't get the reluctance around here.

The rams are bent over a barrel just waiting for the Panthers, and the Panthers are like "oooh...look at the turtles over there!"

How is wait two years a big deal?

We are a 2-6 (17-40 past 4) team with no franchise QB and no permanent head coach.

We beat a bad Tampa team that is one bad penalty away from a 6 game losing streak and we didn’t even beat Atlanta even with a 60 yard Hail Mary and people act like we are winning the SB next year so we can’t wait until 2024.

SMH. This is one of those Jamal Adams/Laramy Tunsil type trades that opens up your cap space and give you extra talent. Both teams are more talented teams now and neither we’re about to win anything. They may have both picked the wrong QBs but overall their teams are more talented now with the extra picks than they were about to break the bank for one player.

If the picks weren't far off I would be more inclined to heavily consider the offer. But either way I'm just a fan and I'll let it play out and roll with the results. But I can tell you one fuging thing. I'll be here to remind the folks bitching about the losing because there will be bitching.

2 years is near enough I don't expect a collapse... Frankly the picks would probably be higher in the first a bit after that, haha

      I know the offer to Lloyd came out, but I never saw that anything was officially offered to May or Donovan. Not saying it didn’t happen, just curious what the source is.

      First Round Poll: Position Drafted

      By strato · Posted

      I haven’t scouted them to say, because I am not GM and have no say. The Miami kid, but he will probably be gone. Freeling. Proctor is interesting. Like I said I haven’t really scouted but I would look closer at him because I have seen some claiming he has the quickness and feet even at his inflated size. So I would look closer at that.  My ideal outcome is one of the top guys who are probably not gonna fall, falls and we use 19 on him. Obviously, I guess. I am  not wanting to trade up or anything - not putting it like code red at all costs, but if we get a chance to get that covered I would for sure want to take it.  Also it looks like we might be able to drop down a few slots and find a future RT at decent value which I would also be fine with.  I think if someone fell that made 19 a hot pick, then I would want to trade out unless it was a top T.  I would probably want to get a run stopper for the DL if the tackle thing didn’t fall right. That is what I voted for here because I feel it is more likely that we don’t have things fall to fit my scenario.
