NRC and Sullivan were both steals last year. Raises both deserved and hopefully the Rams can find similar FA gems this year.
John Sullivan re-signs with Rams

I like it. He played solid ball for us and we needed to pay him. 5m for two is a solid deal both ways. And the incentives give us some insurance in case he breaks down.
All these mocks has us signing him at 1-2 million per year and that just didn’t jive with his market value.
And now let me take a moment to breath
Great signing! Love the break down of the deal it's very solid for us.

This makes more sense. If he plays like he did last year for 2 more years then it’s money well spent

Rams need a legit swing tackle and not the turnstiles they had last year and another backup interior lineman, looking at the draft for those or undervalued FA. Let Kromer go to work.
Great... I really didn't want us to have to change anything about our starting O-line... We need depth..but we don't need a change in our starters...
Pretty sure Sammy would have said thanks but no thanks to our lowball offer.
Sully though is a different story. Definitely should have locked him in before the frenzy.
Good deal. We kept an important cog in our offensive line, and we won't have to rely on Blythe/Eldrenkamp to pick up the slack (although I'm a huge fan of Eldrenkamp.)
I like this move...This line really worked well as a unit last year and he was a real big part of that...
Good revsign and contract.
Demoff is impressing more and more.
Get tired of the ignorance thrown his way.

No complaints despite me advocating for Ryan Jensen, who just signed a monster contract for an offensive lineman. Sullivan's deal provides safeguards for the areas of my concern in health. It's a relative bargain compared to the one handed to Jensen. Speaking of which, Jensen was a 6th-round pick in the 2013 draft, so maybe we can find and groom our own Jensen with one of our 5 6th-rounders.

I would actually still like to replace Brown. I think he is a good depth piece but i would like to possibly get a guard in the draft that could start for us cheap for a couple of years
Not necessarily. Blythe filled in very well last year. Maybe they think he just needs another year before starting. Maybe the long term plan is Blythe and eldrenkamp. I guess we'll find out late April.

I was probably Browns biggest critic going into last season...
but he actually ended up playing really well last year....
a guard to compete with him wouldn't be the worst thing though

I was guessing as high as 3.5 MILLION A YEAR......The market is crazy. Wanted Sully back but, that's a lot of jack. He deserves every penny but, Rams can't afford all these new $$$ contracts. These one year prove deals are expensive. If Bythe is close to Sully maybe Rams should have went with him. I don't think he is very close.
Rams are wisely shifting money from Quinn, Ogletree, and TruJo to the likes of Talib, MP, NRC, Shields, and now Sully.
Maybe even prepping for an AD extension.
What’s not to like?

This is huge imo.
Keeping this unit together was important.
Now let's get some more depth behind these guys.
