Because why not?

Rams currently 15th with $40 mil in cap space and $10 mil in dead cap...

And the Niners will probably use all of their $50mil cap space on Purdy. What a shame

When you look at the Rams top 5 cap hits:

Stafford (likely back but currently in flux)
Kupp (Almost certainly gone)
Dotson (Staying)
Havs (Talked about maybe retiring)
Jonah Jackson (If he's not starting, what is he?)

Except Dotson, they're all potentially gone.

Things could look a lot the same or way different very soon...

This explains how the Rams are able to make Stafford the NFL's highest paid player

lol Bob. But, it does beg the question, is a Kupp restructure more palatable now?? Or do the Rams really want to move on that badly?
