    A few years ago the NFL would not allow Tony Romo and others to attend a Fantasy Football Convention. The NFL spent tens of millions on lawyers fighting sports betting in court for 7 years. Today, NFL owners will vote on keeping in-stadium sports books open on game days. Amazing.

    Rams GM Les Snead was asked whether signing Odell Beckham Jr. was a realistic possibility. “We’ve definitely discussed Odell,” Snead said. “So the answer would be yes.” What would it take? “I think Odell is going to have to determine where he wants his next chapter to be.”

    Rams GM Les Snead said today that the team has “definitely” kept Odell Beckham Jr. in their discussions (they have for the last year). They have outlined what they are willing to do contractually but the sense I get is all waiting to see what he eventually decides. Not sensing

    a huge amount of urgency as Beckham Jr. will also evaluate his options as the spring continues. “I think Odell is going to have to determine his next chapter,” said Snead. Rams have stayed in touch.

    The Rams are also continuing to play out the Allen Robinson situation, after granting him permission to seek a trade. They’d work a sliding scale on taking on some salary correlating to any pick terms. If Robinson stays, Snead mentioned getting him more versatile opps earlier on.

    Sean McVay this AM commenting on how well Matthew Stafford is doing – reiterates he will be able to have a full offseason and adds he feels a “renewed sense of urgency” from Stafford and others, especially guys who were hurt. Stafford a full go this spring.

    Rams star DL Aaron Donald had tightrope surgery earlier this year after suffering a season-ending high ankle sprain in week 12, per multiple sources. Donald is already back on his feet and a full go for offseason workouts. He just hosted a youth camp in Watts.

    Sean McVay today, on the Rams giving WR Allen Robinson permission to seek a trade: “Clear communication. Allen is a great person and he’s been a great player for a long time. You talk to him and you say, ‘this is a possibility that we’re exploring, that we might move you. But

    if we don’t, I want you to know that I’m going to pour everything I have into you as a player and try to reach your highest potential, make sure it’s an enjoyable experience where you love coming into work.’ That’s exactly where we’ve left it. I don’t think it’s uncomfortable

    because those are the realities of the situation. If he is here, we’ll be excited about it. If he’s not, we will wish him the best at his next stop.”

    McVay also noted the reliance of the WR position in his system on the timing/progression provided by OL and also by a healthy QB. “There are certain things we can do to better utilize him if he is on our football team.”

    from https://www.turfshowtimes.com/2023/3/29/23661547/rams-dvoa-sean-mcvay-analytics-rankings

    On Wednesday, Football Outsiders released their biggest DVOA underachievers in 2022 and to no real surprise, the Rams topped the list. Here’s what Bryan Knowles from Football Outsiders had to say.

    “It would be unfair to say that the Rams’ stars-and-scrubs plan doesn’t work—after all, they have a Super Bowl championship, and that will never go away. But it would be fair to say that it would work better in Madden, where you can just flip the injury slider to “off.”…Not to say that Los Angeles’ only troubles were injuries, mind you. They desperately needed a complementary pass rusher across from Leonard Floyd, as the inability to gain pressure rushing only four led to them blitzing plenty, which in turn left their cornerbacks on islands far too often. Allen Robinson did not exactly spark a career resurgence with his move to L.A. The offensive line was struggling even before everyone got hurt. After years of their deals seeming to always work out, the Rams were running out of answers even when they had all their starters on the field. It’s just that that lasted about 45 seconds before the training room started to fill up. Hopefully the Rams will realize that their issues go beyond the inactive list and start to repair the damage to their depth caused by going all-in. At least they’ll have a trophy to look at while they do so.”

    No limitations for Matthew Stafford this offseason

    Dunno. In that photo, it looks like he’s looking at his target. I guess it’s still early in the off-season, but that’s a troubling sign.
