Well, the Rams asked him to set edge a bit more, and we had a huge turnaround from one of the worst to one of the best Run defenses in the league.
Verse a very fine player. But ya gotta give-to-get. Bet Verse takes the place of an additional 1st Rounder we would of had to give.
Fair.
 
I think this is right. Doesn't mean he won't get there eventually, but it's very unlikely he's going to become an elite pass rusher. Verse is a great run defender and gets pressure, but it's unlikely he'll be a 12-15 sack per year type of guy. Myles Garrett has averaged 17 sacks per year over the last 5 years. Verse ain't that guy. Hopefully, Myles has a few more years left of continuing to be that guy.
Yeah, even when Garrett starts to decline, he's going to be putting up better pass rush numbers than Verse. Going to miss the guy though. Sucks he's going to the Browns of all places.
 
This move can be rationalized as "for Matthew Stafford." For all the pundits and folks who took it as a Rams slight that they didnt use pick 13 to help Matthew. How's THIS for help?

2, maybe 3 more cracks at another Rams Ring for Stafford with this move.
Yep, it explains the Simpson pick and "the Stafford & all in plan". Dint need to c8llect high picks for a QB because they believe Simpson can be the successor.
 
Yeah, definitely a win now mode initiated. I mostly get it but I wanted to see what Verse could do. Maybe they see more in Josiah Stewart going forward. If Garrett stays healthy and performs for at least another 3 years it'll be worth it. If not we got rid of a bit of future comfort.

I feel terrible for Verse though. It's a business and it's brutal sometimes. Dude comes in and has basically been the face of the defense since AD left. Is a fan favorite and seems to genuinely love it here and suddenly gets shipped to Siberia. I guess good news is that the Browns do have a top 10 defense so he should be able to still build his resume and score a big contract if he wants somewhere else.

Also, so much for McVay's first 1st round pick as a head coach lol.

Who TF cares. He'll go there, be productive, get a rich extension. Not like we traded a "Legacy Ram" here.

Those comments didn't sit well with me either. Good move off Verse before giving him the bag, IMHO.
I wonder if his personality wasn't a great fit. The constant talking etc... Not that's why they did it, but I always thought his personality differed from the rest of the team, an outlier.
