He was born in Virginia, actually. African parents, but a native U.S. citizen.

Well shit. I knew I should have looked that up. The pics I have seen of him he looks like a dude in his 30s about to hit the strip club. Maybe it's the porn stache.

He could be a hundred years old if he stabilizes our inside linebacking corps and gives us a star.

The player we need to trade is Tutu. Let's get some value for him now in preparation for next offseason.

I dont think there is any value there to trade.
That deep pass that Stafford threw him pretty much says it all about the guy. Sure he's got the wheels, but he's not going to catch a contested ball. So I cant see a gain for a team, even to throw a 2026 7th rounder, for a guy who's a FA after the year and would have to learn a new system.

Owusu-Koramoah is exactly the type of player we should be going for if we do trade premium picks. Young players that can contribute for a while, similar to how we paid a ton of draft capital for Ramsey but got a player in his prime with several years left in the tank. Would love to have Owusu-Koramoah in horns. Not for 1st though. I'd say a 3rd

It is possible you are correct. I don't profess to know his value around the league other than to say I suspect some team might pony up a late rounder for him. Which I'd rather have than him.

But either way I'd put him on the block and see what happens. Then I'd take the top offer for him, whatever it is.

I agree and disagree.

You're right that there is not much value in trading him. It would be pointless for both teams.

But it's not true that he doesn't catch contested balls. He doesn't have the size so when it comes to being physical with his body on contested catches, he's not gonna win. But he has tough hands and has come down with contested catches many times.

I’ve never seen him catch a contested ball
Please share. And he’s had his share of drops so I don’t know about the hands either

Lol, I was thinking the same thing when I looked him up earlier. A very mature looking 24 year old to say the least.

Saw an announcement that the Rams have given Tre-davious White permission to seek a trade. Can’t find the tweet again
