    I think one of the most depressing parts of being a Seahawks fan over the past month has been watching fans assassinate Wilson’s character (after being traded) while simultaneously begging the team to trade for Watson.

    Have to imagine Stafford approves of the size advantage he’ll have in late game 3rd downs/RZ situations. Will also be interesting to see how the Rams manage the three behemoths at TE.

    Matt Ryan never asked the Falcons for a new contract — that was not a part of the equation, per sources. He just felt like the time had come to move on from Atlanta. Ryan signed off on a trade to Indianapolis because he felt like the Colts have a roster that’s built to win now.

    Matt Ryan’s trade will incur a dead cap hit of $40.525M for the Falcons, the largest dead cap hit in NFL history by nearly $7M.

    Russell Wilson to Denver
    Deshaun Watson to Cleveland
    Matt Ryan to Indianapolis
    The next QB trade is … ?

    Dan Orlovsky@danorlovsky7

    So for Baker now its: Sea? Tenn? Car? N.O? All spots are competing for starting job (which likely bring out his best) or a backup role?

    WR Allen Robinson on choosing the Rams: “I wanted to step into an environment where I can be the best I can be. They’re coming off a Super Bowl, and I haven’t yet won a Super Bowl. To be around a group of guys who have done that is only going to make me better and push me.”

    We are looking at the most effective front office in Rams history.

    I think that might be true. Rams under DV were only good the years he was there–97-99. They didn’t nail the lower round picks the way this group does, though they had a lot of great finds with UDFAs. My only complaint about this crew is they aren’t as good with the 2nd round. I think it’s because McV falls in love with this or that guy. I doubt he has as much investment in the lower picks and just lets the personnel pros run it.

    The Falcons fielded trade calls the last few days centered around QB Matt Ryan, sources say. Today is a deadline to make a decision, as Ryan will earn a $7.5M roster bonus from ATL if he’s on the roster at 4 pm. It’ll be either a trade or back to ATL, possibly with a sweetener.

    .

    Matt Ryan is a good fit for Indy. Indy has the cap money, shouldn’t take more then a 2nd and 3rd this year and conditional 1st next year.

    The Rams have been able to find those complementary pieces through the draft with those third- through seventh-round picks

     

    This is the thing. This right here. All the rest–where they spend enormous cap space plus high picks on a small set of top players–would not work at all if they were not good at drafting in the lower rounds.

    And it’s no illusion. They are good at drafting in the lower rounds. Better than they ever have been in the past, even those times in the past when they drafted well.

    Then there’s this, which is also true:

    That’s the best article I have seen on the Rams team-building strategies. It gets it.

    This is how I felt after the Rams extended Woods in 2020. They drafted Jefferson – needed to pick between Kupp and Woods. Instead…extended both. Woods never played a snap on his contract extension.

    from that link:

     According to Over The Cap, the Rams have $15.8 million in cap room after their first wave of transactions. That number doesn’t include Robinson’s contract, however, so his deal will certainly eat into their cap room.

    But simply by cutting Hekker ($2.1 million), trading Woods ($7.1 million) and extending Stafford ($9.5 million), the Rams came away with a total savings of $18.7 million. That’s a significant chunk of change for a team that’s so loaded with stars and big contracts. Andrew Whitworth’s retirement saved another $16 million and Leonard Floyd’s restructured contract cleared $12 million

    the Rams are willing to trade away high draft picks, but don’t seem to require them in return when they make deals for picks.

    Woods at 30 coming off a knee, not as flashily talented as the other receivers you list (objectively he’s just not–his great value beyond being a good steady WR was his intangibles ), with input on where he goes?

    We just differ on this. The trade sounds reasonable to me.  Especially since I am strongly factoring in the whole “Rams do right by him” factor.
