Rams Offering Two (Future) Firsts for Burns

The last sentence is the important part.

It really is. Especially when you’re working for someone like Tepper. Which is why we’ve pissed away a lot for Bridgewater, Darnold and Baker. 

And it’ll continue to be a deciding factor in a lot of key decisions unfortunately

LOL you are unintelligent (and exactly the type of f150 I was talking about)

You put two Lamars on this D and we have a whole new team.

He was and will always be the bar I measure our 5 and 7 techniques. 

Of course you don't know what those are.

So if we don't end up liking one of the top QBs this year or aren't in a position to get one, how much easier would it be to move with 2 1sts in 24 and an extra in 25 as compensation. There's a lot of dynamics at play. I like Burns, but if trading him could increase the likelihood of getting a franchise QB, I gotta make that move. Way more at play than just Burns for picks. We gotta know how the GM and coaches view this year's qb prospects as well. 

...i'm like don't pick a QB if its not there....just cause we need one. we stretchin this shtt into 24 anyways...build the core to support one, when we decide we want one in the draft... tipper 3 years behind on what he shoulda done...now its time to pay the pipper....no short cuts.... Trade Burns...jayzus. First round picks are big trading money.

Please remember, the "two 1sts" the rams are supposedly offering in 24 & 25 are basically the equivalent to a second and third this year.

So magically, the day after the season ends they become *poof* first rounders again. I get that to an extent, but a first in two years is very attractive to a rebuilding team.

Today yes. 2 and 3 years down the road, not as much. That is the point. You can't ack like time doesn't exist, that is not how investments work.

It means stop using the same logic on skipping over a HUGE need and waiting for the next year.  Draft one this year not in 2024, no 2025, no 2026....  We should have sucked it up and drafted Fields IMO 2 years ago.  

Don't mean to re-hash old news but there was zero guarantee he would've been available.

sure hindsight is hindsight but we didn't know that at the time.

    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel. 
    • Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
