If we can somehow get into bye week at 5-4, do you trade a 2nd rounder for Bowe, with an addition of a long term contract ? How about a 1st rounder ?

Re: Possible Scenario. What's your input?
Second, we gave up a 5th last year for Lloyd; similar type of big-play WR. I wouldn't give up more than that. That is, if I considered Bowe an option, which I don't.
First off, our Bye comes after Week 8. I'm still holding out for 5-3.WestsideRamsfan said:

Sorry. I meant 5-3. Oops. So, you would rather risk a first rounder on a WR that may take years to develop and may not even pan out ? Hmmmmm.

We have to remember that building a team is done through the draft AND free agency. Bowe for a 2nd rounder would be a good deal that we can also afford, being that we have 2 first round picks next year.

That's what I'm saying, he's still young, a proven 1000 yard receiver, and would clearly be the best receiver on our team as soon as he touched the field.Lesson said:

Re: Possible Scenario. What's your input?
If Bowe wants out of KC so badly, and he fits Fisher's intentions, we can pick him up in March.
I don't think Snead/Fisher want to give up draft picks at this time, even a 5th. Not while they're still invested in Quick's development this year. They could prove me wrong.DR RAM said:

Picking him up after the season would mean that we would have to compete with a boat load of teams for his service. No chance. Plus, if we are 5-3, we should be thinking about playoffs.

Re: Possible Scenario. What's your input?
No first of all he's on a franchise tag, so his pay is enormous,second you can't negotiate now because of the franchise tag, third ,IF we get to 5-3 after this part of the schedule without Bowe, we don't need him.
Say No 2 Bowe.

Re: Possible Scenario. What's your input?
We'll have just as much chance to sign Bowe as the other 31 teams.
Hardly. FAs will want to come here. If they don't (re: looking for a big, cap-killing payday), we don't want them here.WestsideRamsfan said:

KC would hold out for a first rounder from us because they know we have two. I would be shocked if they would settle for less than that simply because if they got less they'd probably have the fans ready to rip their throats out.

Re: Possible Scenario. What's your input?
Bowe is definitely a talent and better than what we have but like has been said, if the Rams get to 5-3, why do we need him? Obviously, in that scenario, somebody has stepped up big time. And Amendola may well be back by that time to shore up the position. I kinda like the idea of going into the next two drafts pretty damn flush with picks. And FAs will wont to come here as this team rises. The Rams could be sitting pretty for the future with a 5-3 start.
