Rodney Hudson traded to Arizona

[Elmgrovegnome]

I was begging for the Rams to sign Hudson when he left KC. I’ll still take him for a few years.

I want Hudson, too, but they have a plan and I don’t think they’re gonna change it because Hudson shook loose... unfortunately...

flexability, Mac! Talk to McSnead for us, will you?

They have the cap space now to sign pretty much whoever they want.
On paper Hudson sounds great.
I know the Raiders are idiots and all, but something seems off that they would take such a major cap hit to be rid of this guy

Hudson asked to be released. He's their 4th starter from 2020 oline to go bye bye. Ouch.

Well, we talk sometimes, ya know, but he’s clammed up lately.

There’s a hint of a really exciting plan, but he’s good at keeping secrets...

meanwhile, he goes on and on about catching up on Breaking Bad... I don’t wanna ruin it for him so I just nod...

He is allegedly a huge Walt Whitman fan after all.....

You need to morph from Mr Rogers to Mr Robinson and open a can of whoop ass....

Nah, they won't match a first year Center with Stafford.

I keep seeing this sentiment. Then I think to myself that if anything adding Stafford increases the likelihood of a first year center.

Not saying it's ideal or anything mind you. But we have way more room for inexperience at the pivot with a QB who has that positional mastery.

Rather have a rook than Blythe
train

 

[snackdaddy]

I gotta think a guy like Hudson would have plenty of suitors. I can't see us out bidding teams for his services. But hey, I was wrong when I thought they couldn't swing a deal for Stafford. I was wrong when I thought they couldn't re-sign Floyd. So who knows?

Putting a rookie center who's a physical specimen makes sense. But with all the Meinerz talk and him skyrocketing up boards, there's a very good chance he's gone at 57. So is there another guy we take there that's worthy? Do we really want to start a 3rd or 4th round rookie over Blythe? Or should we just nut up and sign Hudson?

What if we need to cut/trade Hav in order to sign Hudson? Hudson + Evans/Edwards/Boom at RT.. or Blythe + Havenstein ? I'd still lean towards Hudson honestly if we could pull it off.

Just think he could be our rock on the OL........I’ll get my coat.

Big fan.

 

[Elmgrovegnome]

Every time I see this thread move to the top I get excited to open it in anticipation of seeing a Tweet saying that Hudson and the Rams are in discussions about a contract.

Stop toying with my emotions!! I’m too delicate for this.

I think your question comes down to Edwards and how well they think he can play RT. IMO Evans at RT will require some up and down time. Boom will get worked at RT you gotta be physical strong side.

But maybe they're thinking of drafting their LT of the future and starting him at RT next year. If they go that route then maybe it's viable to move the money going to Hav over to Center in form of Hudson.

Re: Hudson he's a guy I've never been too high on but I don't think I've watched enough of his games tbh. Might be like Stafford where my opinion of him is outdated. But if the Rams like him and want to move the salary from RT to C then it should be doable. It does seem like there's a lot of teams that need center too btw so if you think you can find a starting RT easier that helps that equation too.

A center of Hudson’s caliber would instantly upgrade both guards spots.

You think he's that good? I honestly need to watch some of his games so not being facetious here.
