Nah man not at all I get where your coming from and we are like official delegators lol we want what we want but I am in no way saying bring in a player of that caliber of course we would all jump for joy but we know it's not possible. I'm just a guy on a board voicing an opinion/concern going forward how the team or if the team makes it happen its all them. I like to hear other people's thoughts too that's why I post stuff like this. I put out there something the Rams need but some people that put out amari cooper that's where all attack or negative comments should go lol. Not saying anything you said was again I totally get where your coming from and respect it. I would though like to add at some point the Rams did actively try to add Khalil Mack it was confirmed by numerous respectable media outlets as well as the team. So some how they were going to manage it, so my thinking is if they could swing that they could swing a much smaller acquisition.

Fair enough I will say again though as I did in the Mack mega discussion thread. Any team no matter what they have at the position or what they have in cap space or picks should inquire about Mack. To do otherwise is incompetence and should get a GM fired for failing at his job. The call doesn’t really imo mean anything. He’ll teams called us asking about Donald when he was holding out, doesn’t mean we were looking to trade him or they were seriously considering him.

The Rams coaches and Snead had all offseason and this far into season and made their choices. They could have signed vet free agents or drafted higher/traded up for an edge. At some point Wade thinks/thought he could make the defense work with the moves they’ve made. We’ll see how it plays out.

@Robert @payote75 Just want to clarify I’m not challenging you or calling you out. Nothing like that I’m just curious how you make it work. It’s all well and good to want to add talent to the team but the main issue is making it work. Everybody would like to trade for Von Miller or Mack. How do we make it happen and how do we pay for it? There’s a finite amount of cap is all I and others are wondering. I’m not attacking you guys hope it doesn’t come across that way.

Agreed but that's not what was reported exactly. What was being reported is that the Rams were in it til the end and were one of the finalists so to speak but gruden thought the Rams picks would be too high. Yet the moron gave up a future second I believe??? which inevitably now is like giving the Bears back a first kind of makes you wonder lol.

The information above shows Ray is a injury liability at this point. Free agent next year and not playing does sound like he will be the answer.

Shane Ray has had injury issues but he also did have some success early on in his career before he got hurt. No way am i saying lets pay him after this year. I am saying trade a 5th or 6th for him bring him here have him sack the quarterback and if he does good and wants to stay in LA after the year it would have to be a team friendly deal. If not guys like Obo will be healthy and had more time to develop.
