Can we trade for a WR1?

My god.  Defense is the only functional unit on this team.  A single WR, much less one a team is willing to part with is not going to solve the offensive issues.  We just need to play some game managing ball like Atlanta is doing with Ridder and let our defense give us a chance.  Give Bryce & Co time to get better.  Trading away players from our defense is NOT the answer at all.

If only we had a generational running back that we picked 8th overall that would take some pressure off the qb

That guy is injury prone. Rams force fed him for 2 straight years. He's probably seen his best days. 

That plus he is just a better version of Thielen.  A slot possession WR who is good at finding holes in the defense.  Kupp just plays for one of the best offensive minds in the game.  Oh and we have his former assistant (Thomas Brown) but refuse to let him call plays....

Novel thought but instead of looking for a 1, why not try and find a few guys that can actually get separation. I don't care if they came from FugRhule U. The leading receiver in the NFL right now was a 5th round comp pick nobody. Surely there's a few guys out there available that can actually get a step on someone. How can they be worse than what we're seeing right now?

And keep CMC and Moore for Young. Hindsight is always 20/20, but it sure seems like most of the realistic fans have better ideas than what the team actually does. Oh, but we can’t play GM.

Here’s one to gnaw on, the trade value we gave up and used to draft Corral and DJ Johnson is almost the same as the trade value we got for CMC. We gave up more to get Darnold than we got for CMC. We gave up about half the trade value we got for CMC to get CJ Henderson.

Fitterer has really put this team in a bad situation

Trade for Cooper Kupp - he’s a #1 and the Rams need cap space.  They have 2 guys that have stepped up in Kupps absence.

That's because Kupp is a system wr that has begun the injury stage of his career. If anything, i would try for Puka Nacua, but the Rams aren't stupid.  It would make perfect sense for Fitterer to make the Kupp trade because he is an idiot. We traded down to take Jonathan Mingo who never got any separation at Ole Miss (go look at his college highlights) and won't get any separation now. Pretty tough to step up to the NFL speed when you have no one that can create space. This wr bunch would be taxing on a vet let alone a rookie.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
