To be gun shy in free agency/trading is just stupid.

you want a guy? Go get him. Just make sure he fits your system

Stafford
Ramsey

Von Miller

it takes cojones to run an nfl team and that’s why our boys are on the couch this weekend

It doesn't work without Mcvay, you know that right? Put MM on the Rams with those trades and they aren't in this game.

Buy you a line up and wiggle with the opportunities of players getting released and wanting to come play for you.

You trade those 1st round picks for proven talent that you KNOW what you're getting.

That's what the Rams have done.

They have no draft picks, but they have guys that they know will perform and can play at a high level instead of hoping they hit on a draft pick.

They better win it this year! Negative cap, no picks and losing a ton of players

No knock on them. I’m all in to win it one season

I don't believe in the way the Rams went all in with FAs. IMO, it was a hook to sell PSLs. They will have some challenging years coming with limited draft capital.

If they win a SB, it's worth it. If they come up short, it wasn't.

I love how the Rams have gone all-in and who cares if they suck for the next 2-3 years if they can make a bowl run this year.

Its like if I asked you if the Cowboys make a SB run next year, but then miss the playoffs the next 3 seasons after that, would you take that deal? Hell yes I would, and the Cowboys would not even have to win the SB, just make it to the SB and I would trade four 6-10 seasons for that.

Or we can keep doing what we have always done, go with bargin free agents and draft picks and never get past the Div round for 26 years.

Front Office's job is to look for every available avenue to improve the roster.

Stephen acts like an accountant who only cares about balancing the books. It's not that it's unimportant, but it's also not the point. The NFL and you know, actual accountants, can do that. Your job is talent acquistion.

When your team is down in the 4th quarter, cap room and compensatory picks that are 2 drafts away do nothing to help you win.
