After the Dallas game, I don't think Tavon gets traded. He was an important part of the offense in this game.

Schematically in this offense, it appears that when both Tavon and Gurley are on the field together, Tavon makes one defender account for him thus creating space for Gurley. If I remember correctly, Moose alluded to this on one of Gurley's successful runs.

Dude's back from his suspension now, let's hear some predictions on roster moves!

My bet is that even though it looks like they'll pull from the defensive side, they're gonna keep it on the O side of the ball. IMO the Tavon trade I've been unsuccessfully predicting all offseason will finally happen this week.


Oh Merlin !!!!, I expected more from you ...

Why would the Rams change anything on O right now? The offense is doing great.

One of the big successes is that McVay can change game plans and key weapons every week. This is huge.
Tavon will not be traded.

I am guessing that Brandon Allen gets the ax to make room for Thomas.

1 and 2 could happen. Definitely not 3, they won't risk losing Reynolds on the waiver wire.
For Thomas and Cooper, their main value is on special teams right now.
If one of the goes, I think it will be the one who is less valuable to special teams.
It happens that a position group keeps more players when it is for special teams.

I'd see if the Jets want to make a trade for Thomas. Maybe a conditional 6th based on 8 games played would make me pull the trigger.
