Ram's QB1 of the future

[nighttrain]

Cousins turns 35 in August, so they're both in their age 35 season.
I have a hard time believing the Rams would make a play for Cousins that would pay him 40-50 mill while still having Stafford dead cap sitting at 91 mill in 2024

Cousins is in no way our QB of the future, much rather go with Bennett.

Not sure if Bennett will be the answer but I cant see how Cousins could possibly be.
Not to mention, Cousins didnt seem to thrive under O'Connell, had his highest INT total ever, lowest passer rating in a while.

Matt Stafford is 35. Cousins is 34. Hard to imagine the Rams make a major move for a guy who's only a year younger.

I bet Stafford has at least 2 more years in him, possibly 3. Premature to plan for his successor, IMO.

McVay cut his teeth as an OC with Cousins and I'm sure he appreciates him. But his offense has moved on to include use of deep shots and Cousins isn't too good there.

Now I doubt McVay wants to see SF add Cousins. But that's a full season away and I don't know if I'd mind too much seeing SF overpay a very mediocre QB.

IMO they're clearing cap space for 2024 because they want to make a run for another championship. They're willing to pay for some vets to fill holes in the roster.

I don't see the Rams signing a high profile vet replacement QB1 anytime soon.

No f’n way we add Cousins or the like.

Our more likely scenario is drafting a top a QB from next years class but sadly I think it’s close to zero chance we’ll have a shot at Drake Maye or Caleb Williams.

Is it hard to see one of those QB’s slipping past teams that will be at the top of the draft like AZ ( trading the midget), Washington, Bucs, Saints, Falcons?

Zero chance. You’d have to trade up with someone and give up at least 2 1st’s plus whatever wherever we are. However the good news there is a chance those top 3 LT’s will be available.
Penn state Fasunau
Alabama Latham
Notre Dame Alt

Shit I’d even be willing to trade up for the choice of those three to.

Also tempting is TE Bowers Georgia coming out and OSU Marvin Harrison Jr WR coming out. Imagine him and Kupp together?

Cousins is limited with the deep outs and strikes downfield. He's old just like Stafford. He'll be exorbitantly expensive. So let's see not an ideal scheme fit, old, expensive... Translation is pretty clear.

Foolio thinks he thinks he's the only one to know Cousins worked for McVay. The guy is a fucking imbecile. Only takes where he shows any insight are his league takes with things that relate to law. If it's about actual ball his opinion is about as valuable as the drunk dude at the bar.

 

[WestCoastRam]

Everyone on here arguing about Cousins when OND basically said that we'd be gifted the 3rd best QB in the entire league in a trade!

Sheesh!

I must be taking crazy pills.

Totally agree. We're going to take huge cap hits if he doesn't play for the Rams through 2025. And why wouldn't he? Rumors of his demise have been greatly exagerrated.

 

[OldSchool]

Florio is an idiot and a well known Rams hater and Collie molester so fuck dat guy.

The Rams QBotF isn't on the roster right now.

IMO

 

[Soul Surfer]

Fucking clown. Decrepit fuck.

Don't hold back.

Tell us how you REALLY feel.

Here's hoping

We have to draft the QB of the future. It really helps all three facets of the game considering you can use cash to assemble a team around him. We're not going to be able to afford a short term contact with Cousins if we wanted him anyway. I don't think the Rams are looking at Cousins as an option, but I'm not in there.

At least it won’t be Tom Brady~ @Loyal sitting pretty in Kansas

If Stafford can put together a healthy season there won't be a pressing need for the QB of the future. Hopefully Bennett can settle that backup job for us and the team can then take shots at QBs midrounds and maybe find a diamond in the rough.

Right now I feel pretty good about the position. Though all it will take is Stafford missing a lot of time again to change that. So gonna wait and see with QB personally.

Just started checking these guys out a week or so ago. Some decent info, nothing earth shattering. Got to hear their take on the Cousins rumor. Its comical, sounds like a couple of guys from this thread

 

[muggmeister]

Why in the fucking hell would we swap 1, 35 year old SB winning QB for another 35 year old QB who can't even win on Monday nights? This is the dumbest reported shit I have read so far this year. The only way this happens is if we have 12 win season and Stafford suffers a career ending injury in week 17. Has Cousins ever won a nationally televised game? Foolio is stupid-ass train wreck of a football reporter, thank God he is NOT employed by our front office.

Don't you even bring up that MOFO

I would stop watching the Rams if they got Brady until they got rid of him

I still don't watch the Lakers since they got Lebron

I don't think I have watched more than 5 minutes of any game and that only two or three times at the most

If Florio's insight was manifested as an electric car battery, the vehicle would have a range of 2.3 miles.
