    And a note about managing an NFL Salary Cap:

    It doesn’t take a “Cap guru” or “Cap wizard” to constantly restructure and push out Cap charges to bring down the current Cap.

    It takes a Cap guru or Cap wizard to not have to do that.

    Restructuring contracts and pushing money into the future seems to be a trend now among NFL Clubs, the other that was totally taboo was taking millions of Dead Money onto the books. This off season Rams first, Eagles to follow.

    LOS ANGELES RAMS: S JOHN JOHNSON III
    2020 overall grade: 85.6
    Projected franchise tag number: $10.496M

    One of the newest additions to the PFF team, analyst Diante Lee, debuted with an excellent article looking at the Brandon Staley-led Los Angeles Rams defense, and John Johnson III’s versatility in this scheme played a huge role in their success. They asked a lot of their safeties, and Johnson delivered in every facet.

    The Rams lined up with two deep safeties more than any team and were still a stout unit against the run. Johnson III was one of just two safeties in 2020 with grades above 80.0 in both run defense and coverage, finishing the season with an 85.6 coverage grade and an 83.9 run-defense grade. Cincinnati Bengals’ Jessie Bates III was the other.

    The Rams seem determined to keep Johnson around if they can, but after their blockbuster move for Matthew Stafford and the solid play from young safeties Taylor Rapp and Jordan Fuller, perhaps they feel the need to spend elsewhere. If not, Johnson makes a lot of sense here as they push to get over the top in the NFC and make a Super Bowl run.

    After the trade was announced and reported, Stafford reached out to Goff and the two texted a bit. Stafford told Goff that he appreciates him as a player and let him know that if there’s anything he needs when it comes to navigating life in Detroit, he’ll help any way he can.

    “I shot him a text. We texted a little bit. Just told him that I know going out there, I’ve got big shoes to fill,” Stafford said on the Mitch Albom Show. “It’s not lost on me that he was in the Super Bowl just a few years ago, so he’s a really good player in his own right. I just wanted to let him know that I appreciate him as a player and obviously, to reach out to me if there was anything he needed when it comes to Detroit – just as far as advice or places to stay, anything. I know that he feels that he can reach out to me, and I know I can reach out to him with anything in L.A. too. So it’s been good.”

    #71 at center.

    Have to think the Rams have interest in growth potential as a center, but Meinerz is obviously someone who provides position flex. There are going to be a lot of zooms and a lot of due diligence done this time of year so I won’t get nutty, but this is a match I like a lot.

    Per release, Rams, LAUSD, Inglewood have put in official request to county to designate Hollywood Park/SoFi Stadium grounds as a vaccination site. They project potential at 10,000 vaccinated people per day, if site comes into use.

    Trishton Jackson looks pretty quick and explosive coming out of his breaks in this offseason workout video.
