Screw him. He had something going in STL and he's all about the money. Goodbye.

99.99% of the time it's about the money.

You can't blame a guy for going after what is probably the biggest pay check in his career. His value right now is probably at the highest point it will ever be from here on out.

I'll miss Danny, but that doesn't mean he can't be replaced.

5yrs... :shock:

Anxious to see the money involved.

I can't say anything bad about Danny. He (apparently) cashed in despite the injury history.

I don't blame the Rams for being cautious. If someone wants to overpay, you don't jump off a bridge if someone else does.

I don't blame the Rams for being cautious. If someone wants to overpay, you can't match the lunacy.

31m, 10m guaranteed, 6.1m average.

I've just always had something against Danny. He's always seemed like he's about himself and not the team. Just my opinion.

I'm fine with him walking.

That's too rich.

Again; the Rams are being wise IMO.

If he stays healthy; good deal for the Pats. If he continues to miss time...? Drew Bennett 2.0.

It makes perfect sense. I was saying a while back on Ram stalk that Idk why people keep saying it's so far fetched.

That said... No one KNEW it was going to absolutely happen until now.

Really can't wait to see the numbers on this one.

Ever since this hit I've had massive respect for him:

6.1 mil doesn't seem overpaid to me, but then Welker only got 6 mil. What will Gibson get???

Farewell Danny. You have excited me as a Rams fan, you have exceeded my expectations as a player, you were a great teammate. I want to wish you well, but the Patriots? I will never forgive you for that.

I personally think he's worth every penny. Just not a deal the Rams could justify doing.

I'd have a little issue if the Rams gave that much $ for that many years.

But only 10 mil is guaranteed, so that's not bad if you need an out.

No way in hell I would pay Danny that much money. Glad the Rams don't have to deal with that.

Me too.

That's a ton of dough for a guy that's missed a lot of games in his career due to injury.

When he plays; he's worth it.

But, that's the problem.
