Don't thnk it moves the needle for the Rams in terms of playoffs/super bowl.

However, does make it tougher for us when we play them.

Guess what? We already have an elite CB, and we don’t have to give up two first round picks to get him!

Surprised you like him with his temper tantrums with the team and his constant complaining, cheating and being on the wrong side of Father Time moving forward? ;)

Gurley might be done & Oline is swiss cheese but best plan is to trade away your future for Ramsey!!! Also how much damn cap space do the Rams have signing big contracts all the time? Ramsey definitely going be showing up to LA in Brinks truck with MC lol
Just yesterday all the local LA radio shows were saying to trade for Trent Williams.

In just 3 years the Rams GM has managed to get
Marcus Peters pro Bowl cB
Talib Pro Bowl CB
And now
Ramsey Pro Bowl CB
and Keim has managed to get
Nothing across from Peterson

they’ve also put themselves in a ridiculously bad position going forward. No 1st for the next 5 years and going to be in cap hell

Who the fudge is Murray? I mean by all means, bash the guy but Murray's a stud.

They're desperate so it's a reach.

My first impression, and I just read about this 10 minutes ago, is this could be one of the worst trades in history. It's so high risk. If Ramsey dominates and they go to the Super Bowl, it's sheer genius. But, I personally don't give that more than a 10% chance. Not with the way their offense has played this year.

Not wishing anything of course....

What if Ramsey wrecks his knee in a game or two? This would a catastrophe of a trade. Hell, surpised we didn't make it to be honest.

Full-on desperation mode after getting their asses handed to them by the surging 49ers.

First the Rams back up the Brinks truck and overpay Gurley, and... he blows up his knee, apparently worse than they've ever admitted, and now he's a VERY expensive stiff. Then the back up the same truck, freshly loaded with another obscene sum, and pay Goff. And... now he looks.. average at best. Now they've given away 2 #1's and a 4 for a corner? These guys are gonna be in cap hell and a world of hurt by the time they open their fancy new stadium in Inglewood.

Behind you
Sometimes a team will agree not to play a guy while they work with another team on a trade. Or do you honestly think this trade was just thrown together this afternoon?
Well said...you know a contract extension had to be worked out as well

I still don’t know how their GM pulls off these deals
As far as I can remember in the past 3 years they’ve traded or signed
All pro Whitworth LT - beast
Suh - gone bitch helped them a ton
2 now 3 all pro CBS
And many many more
Dude is class act - understands what winning takes

Rams are a mess at the moment, they cant score. Ramsey will make them better but they are gonna need to shut teams out to win. They gave up thier future for 1 heck of a long shot this year

He was not signed to an extension. It's the same risk Houston has with the Tunsil trade... gave up a ton to acquire a player without an extension in place.

Hahaha. What Lombardi is saying is Rams are in trouble with or without Ramsey.

The Rams only have 1 of those guys playing this weekend though.

Talib would never pass our personality test been in too much trouble. Peters is very good but a head case, which is likely why he's not a Ram anymore.

I'm not a Keim fan but of the 3 you mentioned the only one I would want, is Ramsay, unless it was a very good deal,

I guess this explains the deal yesterday with Peters, they knew they were getting Ramsay. They didn't get much for Peters IMO but I think they figured addition by subtraction because he's a head case. With Ramsay they get a guy motivated to play. I think they gave up tons but if they fix things their picks the next 2 years won't be that high anyways.

They keep bringing in big name guys I am curious when Goff starts to get expensive what they're going to do but they seem to have a plan.
