What you are saying is completely valid, but there are different ways to look at the situation.
Amari was super talented, but he shut down at times and didn’t have enough will to win. I understand trying to get rid of him and his huge salary. Conner Williams was our weakest link on the O line. I am extremely glad he is gone. Gregory would have been nice to keep, but he made so many dumb plays. I understand the frustration in how we lost him to Denver, but it might turn out to be a positive in the long run. I agree we need a stud DE. I wanted Ladarius Smith bad and think we should have paid him the 14 million per year, BUT maybe we decide to make Micah a full time DE. I think we should.
My point. I’ve said this before, there is more than one way to skin a cat/ build a team. We still have time in FA to pickup a starter our 2( Calais Campbell, Dunlop, a LT, etc. ) and the draft. Last year this front office did a pretty good job of building a solid team.
We still have time to plug holes. I think we are going to spend most of our CAP.
Remember, the Rams were building their team throughout the season.
I do understand the frustration of 25 years of mediocrity.
I was referring to LC not Connor Williams, but either way.
I agree with your take in any event. I expect us to starting bringing in some players, and many of them we will like, at least to an extent. We aren't going into the draft with 30 million to burn and a bunch of holes on the roster.
