You guys are 100% wrong on Ramsey. The defense improved a great deal with him on the team. It was the same issue all year on defense the Run D. We must fix that period. He is priority #1 to resign.
Must resign Littleton.
Personally I really like Fowler he has 12 sacks and his overall play is solid. I am not an Ecubon fan too streaky, Obo hasn't shown me enough etc.
Fire Wade and Don't replace from within get the best DC candidate and bring him in.
#1 acquisition Brandon Scherff and try and get Williams somehow out of Washington as well, they are at a stalemate with him he will never play for them again and they want to keep him on the roster as trade bait which we can only trade then a player. So it is a beyond a longshot unless he is released. But he and Scherff solves a ton of line issues.
#1 draft pick in 2nd round either the Center out of Wisconsin if still available or best ILB remember Bobby Wagner was taken in back half of second round so it is feasible to get a player of strong caliber to help our Run D.
We must upgrade the oline and address the Run D and upgrade the DC position. We do this we are fine.

This off-season is definitely a challenge. We will need to find a way to replace or resign Fowler, Whitworth, Brockers, Blythe, Littleton, and Zuerlein plus find a way to sign Ramsey to another massive contract. In all likelihood, we will also be losing Wade Philips and replacing him internally with Joe Barry.
You can pretty much rule out any free agents below the age of 30 unless they have red flags like Josh Gordon. We will be the most cap limited team in the NFL and will need the increase in the cap ceiling just to sign Ramsey.
Then we will need what’s left of our draft to find some diamonds in the rough at OL, DL, and LB.
We will be in the same position as Seattle next year. We will need to rely on our highly paid QB to elevate the team and overcome the holes in our roster. The success of this team is dependent on Goff improving.

I definitely like Ramsey and wish he and the Rams would had agreed on a long-term contract before they finalized the trade. But, I am afraid that when he becomes a FA he might be out of the Rams Price Range/ Budget. I certainly hope I am wrong and Ramsey (With a name like that he should be destined to be a Ram!) and the Rams can work out an extended deal!

We're in a lot better shape than we were when McVay took over. Back then, we had a lousy OL, a gawd-awful WR corps, and a rookie QB who had been abused like a red-headed stepchild. In one offseason they rebuilt the OL, overhauled our WRs, and took the Rams from 4-12 to 11-5. '
A couple of pieces on our OL and some rejuggling on a D that has AD and JR to build around, and we can be right back in the hunt.

The way things change in the NFL, I wouldn't rule out anything. We could come back like gangbusters on a mission. Or not. As far as the roster, I think Fowler is gone. Edge rushers are at a premium and someone will likely overpay for him. We are not in that position. I'm not sure about Littleton. I remember losing McLeod to Philly when they offered him a nice payday. Could happen to Littleton also.
Whitworth wants to return. He already made that clear. If they can sign him to a reasonable deal, I'm all for bringing him back. He may not be what he used to be, but he's still a solid left tackle. Finding an upgrade, or even a lateral might be too difficult. No one's gonna let a good one get away. They're too valuable.
They have to extend Ramsey. You cannot trade two firsts only to let him walk. The good thing is, they don't have to apply it to the cap till the following season. I know Rapp screwed up big time. Cost us the playoffs. But he's going to be a good one in the long run. I just hope that doesn't affect him going forward. Hill is back for another year. We have two good corners in him and Ramsey. NRC was not as good as before, but we could do worse. I would have no problem cutting Weddle and Matthews. Would save 8 million in cap space. Those two always seem to be a step too slow.
On offense, they do need a couple experienced vets, but they also have rookies with potential. Its possible the youngsters could improve. They just need to figure out a way to be better at run blocking. And McVay needs to figure out something with his schemes. Defenses have been able to slow down and even stop our offense a lot more this season.
