Rams looking to trade Van Jefferson (Traded to Atl)

[dieterbrock]

Vikings plan to place WR Justin Jefferson (hamstring) on injured reserve, timeline for return TBD

Yikes
Selling to the fans that they're going from Justin Jefferson to Van Jefferson would be like going on a date but instead of Tyra Banks, its Carl Banks

Agreed, buuuuut that seems like a Vikings problem, yes? No? (Blue font)

I guess with Robinson on the active roster & Tyler Johnson on the practice squad, the Rams feel good about their depth, so a trade of Jefferson would be prudent.

You just hate Vans!

 

[TheTackle]

How about we ship him to a team for a Edge, or possibly an off ball MLB? The Pats are, or at least should be, desperate for a WR. Would they send us Uche in return?

 

[Giles]

That 2020 draft was just terrible.

 

[ottoman89]

Van traded to ATL with a 7th for a 2025 6th.

God damn Les is a fucking disaster at trading players away.

 

[El Chapo Jr]

Well damn, that was quick.

 

[Turducken]

Van traded to ATL with a 7th for a 2025 6th.

I think this was more about clearing cap space now.

Yes he is. Should have gotten a least a 6th without trading a pick away. Les never fleeces anyone which bugs the shit out of me.

You don't save a damn thing.

We did win a SB with these players, right? But over the long term perhaps we just found better ones?

That’s the going rate for guys like Van.

Probably get a 6th RD comp without trading a 7th in FA

So ... No Brian Burns?

 

[dieterbrock]

The guy has 8 catches in 5 games. they are lucky a team will just take him. There's no way he's bringing back comp pick, he'll be lucky to get a 1 year prove it deal

 

[Kupped]

That's the usual trade jefferson and a 7th for a 6th. Let's hope we can get just a little more this time.

And that's EXACTLY the deal.

 

[Flatlyner]

Wow, again, terrible compensation coming back to us for a trade. Imagine if we get hit with a couple of injuries at WR (knocking on wood). Keeping him would have made FAR more sense to me then getting literally pennies in 2025. Not to mention, if he got a decent contract, we could have gotten a comp pick. I guess this suggests that we are not going to be all about comp picks this offseason and we are going to sign some guys. That said, awful trade. Couldn't even get a 6th or 7th outright?!?

The guy is talented, we've seen it. He's just not better then Kupp, Puka, or Atwell. He is likely day one starter on Falcons.
