Well, he certainly proved that he was bullshitting the entire time about being a "team player" and "coming home to LA" and "wanting a ring" and such.

Hopefully that means that Atwell can get on the field...and - moreso than that - I hope we get a solid pick for J-Jax.

Or maybe we could see a little bit of Jacob Harris in the burner role ... he's got some speed.

True that. I could also see us bringing up J.J. Koski; he played quite well in preseason, and he more than deserves a look.

In all honesty, I'm obviously joking about the race thing. I think he just wants to get as much money as he can. Rams found that out and are going to trade his ass so good riddance. We should only want players that want to be on our team.

Selfish? Yes. Us fans.

This is still a business and the guy is probably at or near the end of his career getting very little playing time with an incentive laden contract.

If true, I don't blame him at all.

Financials aside, these guys have just so many years to play. I'd hate to spend what could potentially be my last year just watching too, if I could help it
Yeah I wouldn't want to be a guy who could potentially catch a game winning TD in the NFC CHamp game or the Super Bowl for my hometown team, who would want to do that....while only making 5M.... ME NOT WE.

Unless there is more we dont know here.....

How much do you want to bet that McVay calls a deep shot to Tutu this week in an effort to show DJax just how much the Rams won't miss him?

All this stuff out of nowhere is bad juju to me unless they are adding a piece to help.

If they even find a taker for him then I say X Howard here we come!!!!

Please don't. I know you're joking, but please don't.
I know that's why I said in all seriousness, I'm joking on another post. Sorry, I'm mostly mocking how society likes to point at things like that for stupid reasons. I truly wouldn't believe that is the case. Sorry if the joke was in bad taste. Don't shoot me please lol

I'm not gonna shoot you at all; I know you're making a joke. But things like that never end well, even in blue font.

I am super curious to see what Tutu can do. I've got my fingers crossed, but have this sinking feeling he will be unable to track and catch the deep ball at any anything close to an elite level DJax can.

Seems to me Harris could step in. DJax isn't doing much if any blocking. And Harris could or should at least be a big target threat on side line routes and/or jump balls or in the end zone.

He's just a selfish dude, has always been and always will be. It's all about him and he's going to end up on a lesser roster somewhere he can pound his chest that he's the guy while he watches the playoffs on TV.

The guy was complaining right out the gate this season about touches. This team is better off without all that. I fuckin detest diva receivers.
I agree with you. Thing is, this may turn out to be mutually beneficial for both parties.

DJax wants out but the Rams may want out as well.

EDIT: Whoops. Meant D-Jax. My apologies, Desean! ;)
I disagree. No one likes being hired to do something and then not being given the opportunity to do it. You might not like it either.

Interesting. Timing seems odd to me, but hopefully there is a trade/signing on the horizon. Desean was a nice piece to have....just sucks we didn't use him. He could be a difference maker in the playoffs. Right now, we are a fringe NFC championship team IMO. Without DJax, maybe not even that.
