I seen KC isn't playing Clyde Edwards Helaire today. I don't think he's hurt so it makes me wonder if maybe he might be getting traded and the team trading for him asked KC to not play him. If so maybe it's us. He seems like a McVay type RB.

I seem to recall an slightly average Edge helping up get to the 2018 Super Bowl (Dante Fowler). Rams just need a better than average Edge to pump up the pressure. .

My buddy is a Chiefs fan and says he hasn't been very impressed by him but I wouldnt mind getting CEH if the price is right.

Sometimes a change of scenery helps and Clyde Edwards-Helaire does not have the injury history. Although smaller, Edwards-Helaire ball security is superior plus has better vision IMO a good trade for both teams.

We'll see if that's Carolina floating bullshit or not.

Jerry Hughes, Chubb, Quinn.. these are the calls the Rams need to be making.

Carolina is full of shit. Most likely released that info to try to manipulate the trade market for him. To me, tells me Burns may not want to be part of a rebuild.

Four starts @ RG. LT ? Alaric Jackson has not started any games @ LT but he has finished 3 games @ LT. When AJ has lined up @ LT he has played exceptionally well. AJ played LT throughout college. AJ has started LT in almost all the preseason games since his arrival & also played very well.

AJ was thrown into a chaotic OL mess & played well @ RG would you say that merits some positive future hopes?

1000%. I'm really excited to see him progress, I was just ribbing our good friend for a possibly premature declaration of him being elite. Sure hope he fulfills that prophecy though!!

What makes this salary of Burns look good is our current overpaid best edge rusher Leonard Floyd will have a cap hit in 2023 of $23 million. I am sure the Rams can not afford to make a trade like this with so much cap invested in 2 ER's that are not that good.

Snead could get out of that contract but he will face a $19 million Dead Cap in 2023. Not really a smart thing to do.

Leonard Floyd | NFL Contracts & Salaries | Spotrac.com

Leonard Floyd signed a 1 year, $10,000,000 contract with the Atlanta Falcons, including $10,000,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $10,000,000. In 2025, Floyd will earn, while carrying a cap hit of .

With the lack of pass rush being produced by our 3 ER's & the amount of cap invested in Floyd alone I do not see any ability to go into a trade for Burns where not only does his cap hit kills the team the cost in draft capital is far out of line.

Sneads best move at this time for the future is once again to retry the NFL draft to attempt to add the pass rush back into the ER room. Rams will have to keep Floyd till the end of his contract & face the fact it was a very bad decision to restructure his contract this past March & just play with the results as is. Rams will be paying millions for yrs after Floyd is retired.

I would never count Snead out to make a move or 2 based on how this team is performing. Standing pat shows we are calling this a lost season already.

Unfortunately, I agree.

On another point, I always hated the expression Father Time. I was really close with my dad and he was a great guy. It should be something like Step-Uncle-Time. Few people have good experiences with a step-uncle.

If that catches on, I expect credit.

I don’t post much but wouldn’t Atwell fill the Chiefs need with the loss of Hill? Couple of 1st rounders for Atwell and the Rams can add Akers for CEH? @Loyal asked me to post this.

I do not see it that way. Rams have a high number of good players currently not on the MR53 due to injury. Eight as I count will return in the next month. 5 of them are his starters. Rams have already got a boost with DL'er Bobby Brown who has just returned. DC Morris has two injured starters in Floyd & Gaines.

3 are very important DB's! DC Morris loves to utilize mega amounts of DB in his defense & this season he has been paralyzed due to a lack of healthy DB's. Once he has these defenders in place I do expect to see some magic finally from Morris & cease all these loose coverages & begin to attack. As far as ER's Dan Hardy will be added to this ER room shortly.

Now offensively the return of Allen/ Shelton/ Jefferson & rookie RB Williams will be huge for McVay. The OL has a very good opportunity to gain strength with Allen/ Shelton back thus sending Evans & Kolone back to reserve status.

Ref. Snead past dealing......Snead's team is not in the same kind of position it has been over the last half dozen years & his options are far fewer. Snead has much more limits on his draft capital & has serious cap limits for the near future.

If Snead continues down the same past path as he has, he is sure to eventually bring this team to a breaking point where it will have to go into a complete rebuilding process for a long period of time. Being a Ram fan during this long period will be NO fun.

I do realize most members here will reject my above-projected future if he does continue to go into further debt.

But the 9er fans say CMC picked them over the Rams. This can’t be true. Obviously the rams deal was the same or more. Smh. Carolina traded him to the team with the highest/best offer - case closed.

Even if he did it would make sense. Lynch played with his dad, Shannys dad coached CMCs dad…there’s some ties there…

Exactly and also sends that very message to the players. They probably expect some help
