Sorry my bad brother was involved in two different conversations lol either way your usually on the ball lol take it as a compliment!!! So respect rams brotherI didn’t say anything about Surtain, we were discussing Tee Higgins who is playing on a franchise tag
Hoping we just resign Jackson (provided he keeps playing well) so we don't have to worry about taking one in the 1st, we have tons of needs.I will rage if they deal that 1st rounder at the deadline. Look how much promise we have now with Verse added to the defense. We need more bluechip players. Those are way easier to find at the top.
And we also need a LT. Which are also best found at the top.
Another wise one and absolutely will remember if I knew how I'd put my man crush in there as me in Chris Hemsworth but truthfully I'm closer to my avatar than that but not as creepy although opinions on here can vary on that!That was me.
@payote75 suggested Patrick Surtain as a potential Rams' trade target; and I responded that Surtain signed a $96M extension just a few weeks ago and was not going to be traded anywhere.
Guess Payote got me confused with you ... It can be difficult to tell us Handsome Gentlemen apart.
For future reference @payote75, I'm on the right and Dieter is on the left ...

LT is lean out there.Hoping we just resign Jackson (provided he keeps playing well) so we don't have to worry about taking one in the 1st, we have tons of needs.
I'd consider getting a contract done soon if he plays decent in next couple of games, hoping to not let him hit the market.LT is lean out there.
We’ve seen Snead let players go out and test the market before.
If he stays on the field they should lock him up to avoid a bidding war.
If you were Alaric Jackson, wouldn't you want to hit Free Agency in six months?I'd consider getting a contract done soon if he plays decent in next couple of games, hoping to not let him hit the market.
Yes, I would, but, I'd also like the comfort in knowing I already have a bag and not have to worry about a big injury costing me millions.If you were Alaric Jackson, wouldn't you want to hit Free Agency in six months?
He will be 26 years old, with starting experience at a premium NFL position. There's some risk (injury and/or poor play) but the up-side is tremendous. I took a quick look, and there are fourteen Left Tackles with Average-Annual-Salaries of more than $13M-per-year.
