Suh visiting Rams per source

[PhillyRam]

I thought that Mike Holmgren (then with the Browns) had an offer on the table including multiple draft picks. I would've taken that offer and drafted Earl Thomas.

1st off Cleveland wanted the RG3 pick and the other option was Washington and Cleveland wanting Bradford if the Rams wanted Griffen.

I'm talking about Holmgren's 2010 Browns. Not the 2012 version; the 2010 version. Holmgren offered multiple draft picks in 2010/2011 for the rights to Bradford.

Meh that’s neither here nor there. I for one am happy we didn’t make that trade because it led us where we are today. We make a trade like that and it’s likely we don’t end up with Gurley/Donald. Plus all the bonehead moves and terrible Football makes today’s state of things all the more sweeter. The rams are set up (probably More so than any other team) to win and sustain success long term. I wouldn’t change a thing even hindsight being 20/20

And the secondary tagged 'The Twilight Zone' - a supernatural secondary..

Or The Outer Limits.

There is nothing wrong with your Offense. Do not attempt to adjust the pass game. We are controlling your yardage. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper. We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical.

This thread...

Let’s not forget we got a shot at signing this guy now, never mind what happened 8 years ago!

Also just came across this.. can’t confirm the source and not sure if reliable, but hopefully deal is announced tonight! (Mind you, this tweet was this morning)

Nailed the NRC & Sullivan amounts, I’m gonna stick to my prediction and say 12 mill high end per year with up to 3 mill in incentives (ie pro bowl, playoffs, super bowl appearance etc). It’ll either be a one year or three for sure!

Did that writer from nfl.com say pairing Suh with Jurrell Casey of Tennessee would be just as disastrous for opposing offenses as pairing up Suh with Donald, the same Donald that won defensive player of the year? And do we dare even mention Brockers, whose pretty dominating himself?:banghead:

I think you are remembering Washington offering to trade for Bradford when the Rams were in position to draft RG3.

Rumor was that the Steelers offered us Big Ben and a pick (I never fully believed that one, but this was back when he was having off the field issues), the Redskins offered us a massive package of picks (Shanahan really wanted Sam), and the Browns also offered us a nice package of picks.

Thanks for the update! Will be keeping my fingers crossed and holding my breath until I hear something! Hopefully, It will be SOON and hopefully the news will be GOID!!!

GOOD not GOID (Whatever that is!)!

RE: Bradford... With the information at the time, I was 100% Bradford.

Hindsight; I’d probably have traded the pick for as many picks possible.

As I recall, the Rams had multiple offers, including a good one from Washington.

Pittsburgh offered their first round pick and Ben Rothlosberger for the number 1 pick. Ben was fresh off the rape debacle. Four pillars wouldn’t even consider it. If only they knew then what we all know now.

Jurrell Casey is no Aaron Donald but he is a very good DL. #47 on the PFF top 101 NFL players of 2017. Suh is # 36. Any guess who's number 1?

 

[Legatron4]

Might as well buy your Suh jerseys. Or maybe you already have a custom one from 2010?

Jimmy gee!!

Suh leaves town favoring the Rams and cancels visits to other teams. McVay is money.

Just consider how many things just fell in place since McVay was hired.
Wade is available and wants to move to LA.
McVay brings in a great support staff.
Whitworth is a feee agent and agrees to come to a loser instead of going for a ring.
Woods signs cheap ends up being a stud.
They have a great draft.
Sammy becomes available.
Very successful season follows. This winter there’s huge needs at Corner, two of the best in the league become available.
Now Suh is thinking about coming on board.

The good fortune is insane. Like getting Faulk, Aeneas, Proehl, Timmerman and Kurt. It feels like the stars are aligning, all because of the influential, persuasive, intelligent, likable, head coach. People say you make your own luck. It certainly seems to be true.

Yes I agree that Jurrell Casey is good, and my post is not saying he wasn't, but the writer was saying Casey and Suh would be equal to Suh and Donald. And that just isn't so.

Just remembering McVay going to talk to Donald during his holdout, and said holdout ending quite soon afterwards.

Maybe just coincidence, but maybe not.

If anything, McVay would be a hell of a recruiter at the college level.
