If Rams can trade Arob prior to 6/1 they will have 8.369 in cap space(2023).

Derek Carr's 2023 cap hit on his $150 mil contract is $7 mil.

I'm not saying the Rams are gonna do this but if they want to they can certainly make it work...

I think they like A Jax at LT. It if they sign someone then they have a nice stable of 3 guards two of whom can be swing players in AJax and Anchrum. They need more at center for sure. But frankly, does anyone think Shelton cant be upgraded? Allen too for that matter.

They can sign a guy like Garrett Bradbury (Min) to a 3 yr deal and draft a C like Steve Avila (TCU), release (or trade) Allen and save cap room there.

Les Snead says Bradbury is a guy they would've drafted in the 1st round in 2018 had he been there so maybe there's still interest from the Rams?

Random memory, one year, 2004 or so, the Rams needed linebackers and signed two on the first day of FA, Dexter Coakley and a former Viking with the general consensus being, "okay solved that problem." Didn't really work out that way as i recall...

Yep def like the Rams slow approach to FA signings, I rather bargain shop unless it is one pivotal player like signing Big Whit (and you had the cap space).
