If Sutton is not available, there aren't a lot of obvious options. Jeudy and Ridley both have issues, but they're also both guys who put up 1000+ yard seasons recently. We need a WR across from Puka who can win against man coverage.

Agreed. The options aren't too great after him.

I also don't want to add a short term rental because this team just doesn't feel like a contender to me. I prefer no trade to be quite honest. Feels like the gambler doubling down on the roulette table to chase a weapon at this juncture.

Sutton's the one dude who maybe can have a bit of a resurgence if we spring him from that offense. But even that option probably doesn't make us what we were last season. I think this offense has too much mediocrity in it to perform to expectation, starting with the QB.

I'm hoping the Raiders are that game where Stafford has that light bulb go on. He should put up an exclamation game vs that defense with the run game he's going to have.

If these are our choices, I would just as soon start Tutu across from Nacua
and give CJ Daniels some snaps and see how he performs.
What a mess.

The Rams are gonna need all of the draft picks they can get after this year. Too many good players up for new contracts.

You mention Atwell. Where have most of his numbers come from? He never gets used until the Rams are hurting at WR. You mention Daniels. Nacua got his opportunity the same way—a key starter was hurt.

THIS IS HOW IT WORKS.

McClendon helped Big Rob make a decision on retirement and whether we want to admit it or not, the sudden impact of the Conductor helped AD99 make his decision to retire.

Atwell, Mumphield, and Daniels get their shot. Next man up.

THIS IS HOW IT WORKS.

Sutton and Puka would make a nice combo. Get Furgeson back and you have three big targets for Stafford,

Is Tutu finally gonna be active? An even bigger question. Are they gonna call his number on pass plays? Or is he just a decoy?

Just a decoy.

When Stafford threw one long pass, I was saying to myself - Yes they are throwing a ball deep to Tutu - oops No

Threw to the slowest WR on the team - Mumpfield.

Churning the inside lb'ers on this team....??

ILB Eric Kendricks signed to PS16 and was activated this past Sunday.

Big offseason signing of ILB Grant Stuard has produced 1 tackle & 1 assist.

I think iLB would be the biggest impact on this team - specifically Baun.

There are enough receivers in this team. They just have to be used. Guys will get healthy and well have additions that way. Heck, I’m not even sure a WR addition would even get acclimated in time and utilized properly.

DL - sure a NT would be good. But I think we’re fine. Especially once Garrett returns. He should change the complexion of that DL and pass rush.

But a stud LB like Baun - he’d make the biggest impact and change.

Agree that adding a very good LB along with getting Garrett back would really juice the Rams defense. Just not sure the Rams have the capital to get someone like Baun.
