I think he might have screwed himself out of work totally with the Rams, though I'm certainly not in the food chain to know just how pissed off they are at him...

I think with all the trouble that Mason has found himself in, there is no way the Rams will not match any offer sheet from another team. Mason is going to be out for at least four games, and he might even be on his way out. I hope Mason pulls it together, but Cunningham is going to be a Ram this year.

And who's going to return kickoffs now? Bennie was in the top 5 in the league last year yds per.
Lowest level tender makes no sense to me. This cat was valuable in many ways and he could just walk?

He can't just walk. The Rams can match any offer. You act like he's gone already. I'm sure the Rams would match any offer as long as it's not astronomical.

I really want to keep Cunningham. He's the better starting option if Gurley misses time.

Tre has his troubles and I'd rather use him as change of pace.

It shouldn't have even gotten to this point.
Why tender him so low therefore forcing him to look elsewhere for a contract?
And then they sign quick who hasn't done anything for them recently. Just bizarre

Maybe because he turned down their initial offer so that was their next best move?? There are at least two sides to these negotiations, who knows maybe Benny wanted to sign with the Rams and his agent is telling him not to.

They could have tender him as a 2 rounder and would be paying him less than Quick.
He was a udfa so the Rams are basically telling him he's worth the least amount of salary they have to pay.

Man, I really don't want to lose BamBam, not only bc he's a great player but if we do I feel we keep going backwards with everyone we've lost and this draft will look a lot like past drafts. We just keep adding holes.

He finished #4 in kickoff returns ypa
Patterson #1 is around 2.5 mill, Dwayne Harris #2 around 3.5 mill and Abdullah is on his rookie deal so all things considered 2.5 mill for a 3rd down back and #4 in kr seems pretty decent if not too low comparatively speaking

Really don't want to lose Benny. He earned his new contract to me after that week 1 performance against Seattle.
