lol -- can't be ignored.

News alert: These talking heads are selling stories and media time for viewers to gobble up. There will be more stories the next 27 days as well.....all meant to get your ears/eyes on them. Whether it's real or not (usually the latter).
 
Agree with that, but if Stafford were to retire after this coming season Simpson could be ready to go in '27. I still have a sneaking suspicion Stafford could play 3 more years.
Yeah, everyone seems to expect him to retire after this year, but baring injury I just think he will play as long as he can wing it. He had 12 years in a shitty organization that got him beat to shit. I doubt he will be looking to retire when all the pieces are in place to keep putting up big numbers. Even if the Rams win a SB this year. He is finally starting to change popular opinion. One caveat would be the Rams cut him loose, looking to go younger. I say I would rather ring out all we can and risk not having his replacement when he leaves.

Simpson will be an Arizona Cardinal by the end of the 1st round after a trade up into the bottom of round one.
Maybe the Cardinals should take him at #13

It's all speculative. None of knows if he'll retire in a year or play for another 3-4 years.

One of the reasons I'm leaning towards a shorter time period is because of something Snead said. He said that if Stafford plays it will definitely be with the Rams, and the Rams definitely want Stafford to be their QB, but Stafford has to decide if he wants to gear up again for another long NFL season. This was a few days before Stafford committed to another season.

I pay attention when I start hearing language about gearing up for the arduous journey. That's the type of stuff AD and the Rams organization started saying the year before he retired.

There can be no doubt that this can very possibly be Stafford's last season. Then again, it may not be.

ESPN is a hot pile of shit right now but for Dan O they are not the problem. He's the dude at work who is always running his mouth before he thinks. That shit works when your job is to drive clicks at a network. But generally those types won't last long in real jobs where there is accountability.
it's a shame his fake job pays him so much money then

I get what you are saying, but what I heard from Stafford all year in podcasts and interviews when asked was, I hope to play for 2 or three more years. So I guess we will see. It didn't look to me like Stafford did any soul searching before he announced he was coming back. It seemed more like a suspense play so he could announce it on stage.

This was super informative. I didn't know, or I forgot, that Simpson had gastritis and lost a lot of weight.

Maybe that explains his mid year fall off. That changes things.
It's certainly a factor that has to be considered if scouts really thought his tape was that strong prior to the illness.

Something else to think about is that Jimmy G was already on the roster at this point last year...

Not saying that's the way I want things to go but sometimes you have to read the tea leaves. Is Simpson a buy-low franchise QB with star potential or JAG? I'm not sure but what I will say is that we won't have such a premium pick in next year's draft barring another unlikely trade for a future first.

Additionally most of the guys that are said to make 2027 so strong at QB were eligible this year but underwhelmed like Arch, Maiava, Sellers, etc. It's the same narrative we heard for 2026 about just wait until Klubnik, Nussmeier, Allar, etc. And now those guys are thought of as mid round targets.
