I was thinking about when was the last time the Rams went through something like this.
Mid 2010's, the Rams never had much talent to lose, and the Rams had the cap room to hang onto what little talent they had.
Before that, watching Fletcher and Warner leave was rough, but the team was still performing well, unlike the Texans. It also took a couple years before we knew that Warner was going to bounce back. Most of the star players left when their tank was pretty much empty. Not fun to watch, but you understood.
The late 1990's was another talent dead space.
In the early 1990s, we saw Greene, Bettis, Everett, and Ellard leave and do well elsewhere, while the team went into the death spiral that continued all the way until the Super Bowl year. That would be the closest I think we've seen to losing so much talent for stupid reasons.
I thought the post was a mistake too
