I foresee a trade in the draft packaging Foles and a fourth to get back into the third round. Get some offensive help. Boldin is almost a must now too.

Gave up waaaaay too much. Both 2nd's?? I could see one, but both? Titans get 2 #1 picks, 2 #2 picks and 2 #3 picks.
Yep.

Both 2nds was incredibly stupid imo.

Remember when this place was howling laughing at the Redskins for doing the exact same thing?

The Rams are fools for making this trade. FOOLS.
They also gave up any chance of winning in 2016.

So angry right now!

Exactly. I thought even with moving up to #1 - if we keep one of those #2's... we can still get a damn good receiver. Now we don't have a pick til the 4th??

And yet the Redskins got their QB in that draft...and last I looked they beat the Rams and made the playoffs last year.

Great move. They had to do something to get out of the middle of the pack. Gotta have that QB to win. they do now. Be SB team when they move to new stadium in 19. I was just going to attend 2 games this year, now I think I'm going for 6
Starts game 1.
Gives us fans the 2nd day of the draft off.
No gnashing of teeth on day 1, just laugh at other teams bad picks.
How did this align with the draft trade compensation chart.....

Top defense + Top running game + Uber talented QB? Ask the Patriots and the Seahawks how that formula turned out. Cheer up, boys. Our days of suffering are over!
Glad to keep you as a fan bruh..... like @-X- says... Saved you from the Jags fanbase. LOLOLOLOL

Yes but the skins were moving from 6 to 2. The Rams are moving from 15 to 1. They're under pressure to bring some excitement to the team this season and have a winner in 2019. Can't blame them going for it.

I feel like we should have learned something from the RG3 trade, yet we made just as big of a trade.

I on some level agree with you but at the same time its a little short sighted. What if the QB. we select becomes the next Cam Newton or Peyton Manning, Carson Palmer, Eli Manning, Aikman, etc then IMO the deal is a steal for us.

I think its also worth noting in the 4 years since the RGIII trade they have won 2 divisions and have 2 playoff berths and even went through a coaching change in year 2 and they are supposed to be disfunctional.

Ya, they didnt get what they wanted with Griffen but they also were able to overcome it.
