The concussions were the problem. The fact that they are paying so much dead money this year sucks... the fact they got out from future years and got a second round pick this year? Does not suck.


Yes. They got 122 receptions and 1787 yards, (not "850" yards) plus 7 TDs over 2 years.

Now draft KJ Hamler, who's only 20 yrs old and you've got an Az Hakim

Just noticed, by trading Cooks, we are a little over $5.4M over the cap. We will need to do something to get us back on the positive side of the cap.

Unless Demoff has some incriminating photos of Kroenke you have to wonder between the logo and these bad contracts if he has a future longterm with the Rams. He has done a good job with the move from St. Louis and Sofi but he has failed big time in the salary cap management and the re-branding to this point

The concussions were only part of the problem.

He’s never been a #1 receiver he’s never been a guy who puts the ball in the end zone on a consistent basis.

It’s why Neither The Saints nor the Pats would pay him.

Plus if you look at the film he was no longer carrying coverage.

Pfffttt

Obviously the Gurley and Cooks deals will forever be included at College MBA Programs, in the SPORTS FRANCHISE MANAGEMENT CASE STUDY material and it will be entitled:

"How NOT to manage the Sports Franchise Owner's Money"

We all screamed back in 2018 when they were throwing so much fooking money at Gurley, Goff and Cooks...…..and now......HERE WE ARE! :oops2: :arrow2: :?

Question for ramsman34.....and actually for everybody....
UM.....are these lofty Ram Player Contract FookUps all owned 100% by Les Snead???? :?2:

I thought Kevin Demoff and Tony Pastoors were supposed to be the
CAPOLOGIST GENIUS TWINS FOR KROENKE.....NO??? :? :arrow2: :?2:

As Jack said, someone’s contract got restructured to make room for this.

Unknown at this point.

All machinations indicate this is a prelude to the massive Ramsey deal.

I am OK with that.

I think all are involved, but you have to look to Snead and McVay for the talent portion of the eval.

Could they sign Ramsey to an extension and save some of that 13 mil for this year?

Snead is the GM, Demoff COO, Pastoors main contract negotiator. I could see them all gone if the team has a bad draft and a bad season, again, if the season even happens. They have all made mistakes on veteran player contract extensions. Goff being the only caveat. If he has 2 down seasons, they will dump him as well and eat huge dead cap $$.
