The Bills would never trade like that and the results show. I would have given up 3 1sts for Khalil Mack back then in a heart beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 And they're gonna have to pay him top $$$ too. In the Rams defense they are banking on their picks being in the high 20's which they see Ramsey as being worth. They are a lot further away than one high end CB though. They better hope they can get that OL fixed in FA as well as hit on their mid-round picks the next couple years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 For those that say he isn’t worth it......if they win one super bowl, it’s worth it. I don’t think it’s enough, but this weeks game vs the niners was an eye opener. They are way behind SF. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojo44 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Wow! I get mortgaging the future to win now but, as good as Ramsey is, he doesn’t strike me as the kind of player who would put them over the top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyDays Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Lol the Rams are soooooo stupid. They are going to be in the basement of the league within 3 seasons. No cap space and no draft picks to rebuild. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I think these are the kinds of trades you make when you think you are 1 player away from winning the SB (they may be but it wasn’t at corner) and/or when you don’t draft well.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I guess this just goes to show that what I perceive as a team's weakness, and what that team perceives as its weakness, are not close to the same thing. If you asked me to name one position I felt the Rams needed to upgrade so badly it was worth giving up 2 1st round picks, it would not have been CB That said, they did get gouged for a lot of pass yards the last 3 weeks: 376 by Tampa, 262 by Seattle, 331 by Frisco Talib played against Tampa and Seattle, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffaloboyinATL Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 It seems like they gave up an awful lot for a team that will most likely not be in contention this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a premier position, arguably worth even more than a top edge rusher. That's worth 2 firsts. There were apparently multiple teams willing to give that up for him.

And both play well at times. But when it comes to the difference in winning the SB - neither played well in the SB and neither are playing well now. Gurley just isn’t reliable with his health.

Logic Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 As far as the Rams go...I think all these years of not drafting their own young blue chip players are going to bite Les Snead in the ass. You can't just keep trading away picks for star players forever. First of all, collecting stars does not a great team make. Secondly, you can't pay everyone. Thirdly, at some point, you need to replenish your roster with young, cheap labor. Snead can't play this game forever with his draft picks. As far as the Jaguars go...it's hard to argue with getting two 1st round picks in exchange for a cornerback who has made it clear he wants out. I DO find it funny sometimes, however, how easily teams are willing to part with supremely talented players. Especially lately. Everyone calls it a win for the Jaguars, but draft picks don't mean squat if you don't know what to do with them. In order for the Jags to "win" the trade, they actually need to use their picks wisely. That part's not always so easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think they are late picks and he helps make at least 1 of them land in the 30s I would say there’s an argument plenty go for more. what’s a late 1 this year plus another late 1 get you moved up to in the draft? Teens, roughly? plenty of corners go top 10 and it’s not a stretch to argue that getting a proven guy offsets some of the cash compared to drafting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
