You are right on as usual A2M, lazy narrative from lazy fans. Burrow's been the victim of freak injuries. Guy was a minute and a half away from a Ring. Would KILL to have him as next Ram QB.
Which QB should the Rams draft in the 1st Round next year?

You're not wrong. This mirrors life:
You can't create opportunity but you can seize it when it arises.
That's what I meant by they can position themselves.
Its 2025 and your guiding principle is you need an above average/elite QB successor to Stafford, so you snap up an extra 1st in 2026 when that opportunity arises. You're positioned for what most thought would be a strong draft class.
It's 2026 and maybe you think one of the top two guys will be elite in your system. Aggressively move up if that opportunity arises.
Or maybe you think the 2026 QB draft class is crap but expect a very strong class in 2027. Then you aggressively position this year to make a move next year.
I see what you are saying about how a team can position itself when the opportunity arises. It's just that the opportunities aren't as common or easy to seize when it takes two to tango to make moves.
I've read 92 pages and here's where I am at. Snead and McVay will figure it out as they always do. I totally trust them.
My wish? That Sellers comes out, those two like what they see, and we get him in the late first. Outside of that, I'm just not worrying much about it. Hell, if Mathew wants to play another 2-3 years and will keep the cap hit reasonable, let's keep adding talent and worry about it later. I'm loving the ride!

believe me. im in the keep stafford till the wheels fall off group ....
i just think that with the shitty teams cincy keeps marching out, MAYBE burrow might request a trade....
and we may have to wait a couple of years with staff playing well, and the bengals being idiots...
i just think mcvay would make the move for another top tier QB...
hell, he may already be planning to scoop someone up when available...
go rams

Apples to oranges though,
Burrow has missed extensive time in 3 of his 6 NFL seasons, Stafford had only missed time in 2 of his 12 seasons in Detroit
Can be the first 3 time "winner" of the Comeback Player of the Year
That's a legit point.
My post focused on Stafford's 1st four years with the Rams; and ignored Burrow's 2020 rookie season and this season ... when Stafford missed just one game to Burrow's 15 missed games.
That's another legit point that suggests Burrow lacks durability.
However, there are a lot of legit points ... Apparently "legit point(s)" are my Words-of-the-Day!
Not sure that 'Apples and Oranges' is the applicable reference though.
That term refers to things that are fundamentally different and not suited to comparison.
Where talking about two NFL Quarterbacks who are contemporaries and their comparative durability.
It's more like a McIntosh and a Granny apple ... don't you think?!?
So Dontae Moore had his OC become a head coach this week. Doubt he moved to Kentucky but will it affect him and declaring for the draft?

Yeah I'd love to see what the odds of him coming out moved to. Seems like a big shift. Too many guys have gone back with a change like this and severely affected their draft stock.
I guess it really boils down to does he think the HC was the key. Or his trust in a good new OC being hired. That said declaring see.s more likely today than a week ago.
Sure would deepen the options. I'd like to see him and Maiava declare. At the very least we'd possibly get a bluechip defender pushed down to us if that Atlanta pick is high enough. And if the Rams are thinking of a jump for the QB there's more teams to talk to.
Another option is LSU. Kiffin moves in and Nuss is a senior right?
Whatever happens will definitely be a "splash". The Rams don't take little swings with qb.
And it will probably be something nobody saw coming and makes little if no sense for the other team (Josh Allen, Drake Maye, etc.).
I just don't see them drafting a stud qb. McVay has had a taste of a talented, elite veteran and I bet he goes back to that same well.

IMO, it really comes down to how he does in the CFP. If Oregon wins a few games and Moore is stellar I expect him to leave Oregon and enter the NFL Draft. If not, then I expect to stay, but it will be interesting to see who Oregon hires as their next OC.
Doubtful doesn't begin to describe those 2 name options you dropped.
Thank god we're only about a month away from knowing what QB's will actually be in the draft
