That's true about the offensive line. I can see us drafting a center in the second round to replace Blythe and push Allen/Shelton. But I have faith in Evans and Edwards when it comes to stepping in and playing well.

Hope your right and good insight by you ID'ing the centers for next year

Josh Myers (Ohio State), Creed Humphrey (Oklahoma), Drake Jackson (Kentucky), Trey Hill (Georgia), and Jimmy Morrissey (Pitt) are the ones I'm watching. Myers is my personal favorite, but I wouldn't say no to Humphrey. The others have their warts, but could be good.

Yeah, that’s a lot of money for Ramsey, but...

What were the Rams to do?

They gave up two 1sts in trade for him knowing full well that he was gonna have to be paid top dollar.

But he’s a proven elite player, still young and healthy, at a premium position in today’s NFL. A playmaking stud that can wreck opposing game plans. Zero off field PR issues.

Great teammate, very coachable, super football smart, and tremendously versatile for Staley to use in so many ways.

Geez, how much is all that worth? I think we just found out. Lol.

What happened in Cleveland?

The classiest way to put it is that Odell Beckham was accused but some lady from his past of enjoying Cleveland Steamers...

So many jokes already on a Twitter that he was trending...

All I know is I can’t wait to see Aaron Donald supported by a lockdown CB for a full 16 game season. Small sample size but it is worth noting that AD had 1 sack the first five games last season when our secondary was a disaster and he had 11.5 the last 11 games after Ramsey was here and settled in.

If I remember my numbers correctly, the Rams were averaging 2.1 sacks/game before Ramsey, 3.7 sacks/game after Ramsey. That's pretty damn significant jump.

Here are the details of All-Pro Tre Whites contract as we know now. I don't know who is the better CB but, I guess they have similar abilities. White had 6 Ints to Ramsey's 1 last year. The Rams get Ramsey for an extra year at a cost of $35Mil more than White's deal. It is what it is but, it sure seems like the Bills got a much better deal. Ramsey did play his 4th year at a lower dollar amount. If Ramsey's deal is reportedly structured to pay him less in the first two years which helps. I guess this year it could have less of a cap hit than what the Rams were paying him in the 5th year option.

Nice to here the report above that he had a great camp. Still seems like not doing an extension and trade deal cost the Rams millions of dollars.




White’s extension is worth $70 million, including $55 million guaranteed, according to Adam Schefter. He was set to make $1.84 million in 2020 and $10.2 million in 2021 under the fifth-year option on his rookie deal. In February, we projected he’d be the highest-paid cornerback in the NFL at $15.6 million per season. From 2021 to 2025, he’ll make $16 million per season. The new money average of $17.5 million per season and $55 million guaranteed are the highest ever for a CB.

A little concerned that we haven't seen one press conference with D Coordinator Staley? Are they hiding him ??

.

5 years for $105m means the rams have him locked up 6 years for $118m.

it looks a little better that way. it's less than $20m per year.
