McVay on The Herd

[Gandalf]

One of the bloggers floated that Simpson would be packaged down the road with other assets for Burrough when he demands out of Cincy. Interesting theory particularly if Simpson shows anything when he gets a chance to play.

Hopefully he shows enough that we aren't even thinking about trading for anyone else.

Thanks for posting this - I was actually watching the show, but nappy-time sort of kept me from seeing the segment.

I thought you were young but not that young! I hope you didn’t forget to thank your parent cause that stuff must itch

I said that in prior thread as well.

If the cost for Burrow WAS three 1's, now it simply becomes two 1's and Simpson. Which could actually be MORE attractive to Cincy or other teams.

If they acknowledged they had met with him it didn't mean they thought he had "superior football IQ to be an upper echelon signal caller". It would just mean they met with him. All this talk about McVay playing chess vs the checkers the rest of the league is playing is overblown. The Rams got paranoid and didn't want STAFFORD to know. This wasn't about the other teams. No one was going to trade up to 12 or under to take Simpson. No way. We all know it'll take 2-3 years until we know if this was a wise move or not. So let's put the brakes on the Svengali thing for McVay.

IDK last year it was reported the Rams had interest in Dart and met with Dart & that is why the Giants traded up before the Rams picked to take Dart.

The Rams didn't want Stafford to know? They reportedly told him before the draft even started so how does that make sense?

They "reportedly" told him before the draft? All we've heard is they told Stafford the day of the draft what their intentions were.
