First reaction: "Hahaha, awesome"
Second reaction: "Fuck me, that little shit cost us Martin"
Third reaction: "...but we got Donald..."
Fourth reaction: *drinks heavily*

Wow.
If Jones takes JF, we would probably have Martin in horns.
I read rumors Snead wanted to move back into the 1st rnd to get Martin.

Yeah Martin would have been a Ram. We had a deal in place with Baltimore to get him.

It's nice to see the organization put a premium at the position.
If we can build a dominant oline, we will be a playoff team every year.

We could have had Martin - but it would have cost us Joyner plus next years second rounder.

I wouldn't have hated it, but I'm good with what we have.

Think how thin we would be in the secondary if that trade occurred. We probably go corner over Tre Mason in the third.

Um, more like next years first rounder!

I believe they had a deal in place with Baltimore. This year and next years #2s.

I thought it was our second or third this year.

"The Rams were willing to give up a second and third round pick this year, along with next year’s second-round pick if Martin had fallen to the Ravens."

We haven't seen a FO that aggressive since?

Okay, I knew two 2nd rounders wasn't gonna get it done.
