Going to need about 139 of them if he leaves for BUF or TB.

and it either ain't looking like he gets retained - or it is pure manipulation.

OBJ's top five places to go - KC, GB, Rams, Buff & B-More (or less...) :dizzy:

View attachment 56863


The first choice for OBJ is L.A. it’s more about the lifestyle than it is about winning. His ego is big enough that he thinks he can win anywhere he goes. There is nothing about any of those other cities that he is looking for. He’s just applying the pressure on the Rams to get him under contract sooner than later.

From the Rams perspective, with many needs, an approaching trade deadline, limited cap space and no real idea if OBJ will be able to produce yet, signing him too soon would be foolish.

My question is why isn’t his agent working hard to get him endorsement deals this whole time?

And who would blame OBJ if he chose an 8-2 team willing to Guarantee him more $$ and the Rams are struggling at 5-5/4-6 by the end of November.
It wouldn't even require MORE money in that scenario.. if it's equal, why wouldn't he go to the better team?

Because he loves the limelight of LA? He likes the team and the way it is run?

He has a ring. He’s not 24. Maybe he’s just looking for a place that makes him happy.

Yeah, I think when you're only gonna be somewhere 3 months, that doesn't really matter. And when you're already playing on a short season, you want to go deep into the playoffs.

Yup, his agent is dialing the back channels, as we write this. For dam sure!!
AND... counting his own cut on the action. :dizzy:

The Bills weakness is a lack of run game. If they get CMC and he stays healthy they will be one damn strong team. Especially given his prowess as a pass catching RB and how much the Bills throw the football.

CMC has McVay written all over him. Just sayin. If it wasn't for this OL I would be dreading us being the team to trade for him. :laugh3:

They might want to wait and see if an injury reprioritizes things before the deadline, but CMC in Buffalo feels like that final piece.

Would seem that way but von needs to stay healthy and the cold hasn't hit let alone McCaffrey playing in Buffalo New England and NY in cold months with his injury history would be interesting. One never knows though.
