You were close, but we actually gave up a 6th round pick and EJ for a 5th round pick in two years lolAlright.. let’s speculate.. I’m thinking they traded EJ & a 7th and got back a 5th.
Told you... Teams won't pay for a ILB who is in the last yr of his contract and wants a big deal.Well, shit.
That's my fear too - is Reeder the new guy in the middle with Rozeboom? If so, that's horrible.If they don't make Speights one of the two starters, we are in deep doodoo with Reeder as the 2nd lb
I see it more as taking care of their own, sometimes.I get that you want to do right by the players, McSnead...but this is a shit return, honestly. I wish they were a bit more ruthless at times.
Our 6th-round picks areBetter than the usual of getting a 6th back.
And effectively adds 2.3M in caps space. He save's 3.1M and Speights makes 800K. So they net 2.3M. That actually is significant when you are sitting at $12M. Now that jumps to $14.3MTold you... Teams won't pay for a ILB who is in the last yr of his contract and wants a big deal.
You don't know that. If they sign a guy that offsets his contract then they get squat.The Rams could've kept him, used his talent to help us win. Let him walk, and STILL gotten more value in the sense of a comp pick.
This a mess and big L all around for the Rams, and Snead.
Looks like I nailed this one...I don’t think there’s any bad blood between the 2 and fully expect to see him starting game 1.
It only matters if you use it ... who is out there that they could sign right now?And effectively adds 2.3M in caps space. He save's 3.1M and Speights makes 800K. So they net 2.3M. That actually is significant when you are sitting at $12M. Now that jumps to $14.3M

They did right by EJ.
Let him get paid.
