Rams trade for first overall pick
 

Per NFL.com

1st this year and next year
Two 2nd rounders this year
3rd this year and next year

Beat me by a minute. But I out the terms in the header.

Holy crap. That's insane.

Paxton Lynch could be a slippin

That's an awesome haul by the Titans.

I bet the Rams go Goff now.

I'm hoping that's the case and the Chargers lose out on Ramsey.

Tennessee has no state income tax, California taxes the shit out of everything.

Chargers gotta go Tunsil

Surely it's Goff they want.

Yep. Rumor is the Browns want to trade out of #2.

Damn, why couldn't we have gotten a deal like this when we had the #1 pick?

was just thinking the same thing

Because we are the CHEUFS! :deevee:

If we could have we wouldn't have wanted to, cause it would have meant there was a legitimate franchise QB. (Even better than Geno.)

Eric Fisher doesn't have the arm

To think what Dorsey could've done with all those picks.

Truth is if their were a QB available, half of CP still would've bitched because we didn't take him. ROFL

Jesus.


Titans went in dry.

In 3 years... if TN plays the Rams that season and Fischer is still the coach, maybe they can have the players drafted with all those picks act as team captains for the coin toss.

Could have at least bought them dinner and drinks first.

Rumor is it's going to be Wentz.

And, considering TN has their QBotF ... all those extra picks really gives them a lot to work with for immediate improvements. Stellar.

Rams will go 7-9 or 8-8



Again.

So Rams go Wentz and the Browns go Goff. The Chargers have to go Tunsil at 3 which leaves the Cowboys to take Ramsey.

According to the "experts", players 16-50 are the same quality.

Titans have a chance to rape if they don't **** up the picks.

Oh, it looks like the Rams realized they need a ****ing QB.

More like they needed to make a splash to keep fickle LA people interested when the team sucks because Fisher is a mediocre coach.

I have hardly any doubt in my mind that Kroenke probably forced this onto Snead/Fisher.

My God...

Going from doing the bending over to being bent over, yeah I would say so. They will fall on the sword when the plan fails, too.

Looks like Fischer finally won that SB for Tenn...

Wtf are they thinking? Dumb

Wow. If. He doesn't work out....

Wentz I assume?

The Rams really want Tunsil and weren't afraid to trade up to get him. You've got to establish a dominant OL in today's NFL.

Wow, that's insane.

There's no one in this draft that is worth that kind of a haul. Not even anyone whose hype is to that level.

So, since 2008, the Rams have had the 1st or 2nd overall pick 4 times prior to this upcoming draft, which has resulted in the following:

2008-Chris Long(Long time starter at defensive end. Good player. Not a bust and was the right pick over Ryan considering the Rams had no way to protect him).

2009-Jason Smith(Bust.)

2010-Sam Bradford(Meh.)

2012-RG3 trade(Resulted in Brockers, Jenkins, Pead, Stacy, Robinson, Watkins, Ogletree, Bailey. Of those players, only Brockers, Robsinson, and Ogletree remain. Jenkins turned into a good starting corner and Stacy gave the Rams one solid season as the feature RB. Bailey is a non-factor. Pead was a total bust and Watkins for a 5th rounder was one as well).

2014-Greg Robinson(TBD)

This team should be way ****ing better than it is now considering where they've picked previously, but inept management(I'm looking at you, Spags, Devaney, and Linehan) messed everything up.

Fisher and Snead have been above average drafting with the Rams. Whoever they pick at 1, IMO, will be turn out to be an above average starter in the league. As for the rest of the team, well, offense is still shit outside of Gurley and Austin and the defense needs to undergo a significant retool do to losing McLeod and Jenkins as well as needing to further develop defensive line depth as Hayes and Sims are being forced into more significant roles than before.

LA Rams - At least we're trying!

wow. that's a huge move up

ROFL:clap:

Have you decided if you're still a Rams fan?

Pitts just fapped to this strengthening his claim that the league is staged.

They're thinking that they need a new face of the franchise that just moved to L.A. They just grabbed all the headlines a day after Kobe's last game. This is about marketing. No way this trade goes down if they're still in St. Louis.

Yep NFL will do all it takes to see that LA doesn't fail. Titens owner surely gets a big kickback. Please oh please football gods make rams picks busts or worse. Make sure their stadium is a ghost town on Sundays like its got Fukushima nuke waist buried under it. Seems its not to much to ask.

Damn...Titans have #15 and THREE 2nd round picks and two 3rds this year....and two 1st rounders next year.

This will make you a contender quickly...

Rams are ****ing stupid...but ARE a QB away from being a really good team.

I'm still disinterested in the NFL right now.

But, come September, I'll probably end up watching their games whether I want to or not because I am but a lemming to the NFL cartel.

Hopefully the Chiefs take back over the STL market

Are the Rams really just a qb away though? Seems like a great deal for Tennessee and an unknown for the Rams until it plays out.

They have to be confident the qb hits, because this will crater that roster

I don't know. Last season I would have said yes. But losing McLeod and Jenkins makes me think otherwise in 2016.

Jesus. Herschel Walker-ian trade here.

I legitimately didn't think anyone in this draft is worth that kind of haul. No pressure on whoever the pick ends up being, or anything. Just make the Hall of Fame or forever be labeled a failure.

Hail Mary from Fisher and company. This is their last shot to get something going.

They better pick the right QB or else it's going to be another 5 years of suck.

No player in this draft is worth that, insanity...

Their ol isn't good, they do ha e Gurley though, but their wrs a d TE's are ?

I dunno, don't know that I see it

I got good money saying Fisher had jack and shit to do with making this trade happen. Kroenke is desperate to make a splash in his new home and doesn't give any ****s what anyone thinks of this.

I think Saul has it right. Move to la, need to drum up excitement

Since when did Kevin Costner become GM of the Rams?

It feels like the current idiots trying to buy themselves several more years with a rookie QB or whatever, but you'd think the owner would have had to sign off on this.

Maybe the soulless miser just wants to sell more PSLs at the new stadium without regard for the long term effects of mortgaging all those picks

And the Rams make a big move to shit on the Lakers and the Kobe dick sucking fest.

I'm ok with that

With Kobe leaving, LA is going to be starving for a golden boy... I am highly doubtful that a kid from North Dakota is going to be able to transition to not only that division from his level of competition and play well off the bat against the defenses in that division (not SF), but also be able to handle that media if things go wrong.

Put in the fact that they are doing Hard Knocks this year and it is an absolute formula for failure imo. He's going to be hounded and pressured from day one by the largest media center in the world. Going from playing South Dakota to Arizona/Seattle is one thing, going Bismarck to Hollywood is going to be an entirely other beast of a challenge.

LA better pick Goff.

6 picks now in the top 76

Damn good start for Robinson in TN. That team could become a contender quick with the right picks the next couple drafts.

Wonder who they target at 15 or if they even stay put there. Could be Treadwell or Decker/Conklin. Maybe trade back into top 10 to get Stanley?

when the primary goal is to sell tickets, you bet your ass it's worth it. if the goal is to win games, #fail

It's not like a rookie QB is going to immediately play at a Super Bowl level even if they were just that one player away

At least this time it's consensual

NDSU is in Fargo, not Bismarck

Man the Titans could load up with this trade.
Why couldn't there have been something like this when we had the #1 overall.

Holy crap.

That's "a deal they couldn't refuse" for sure.

Had to be multiple teams in a bidding war to move up.

This is the new NFL that desperately needs new QB talents.

Brock Osweiler gets 18m per and teams trade nearly 2 full drafts worth of picks to move up for their QB.

What's it gonna be like when Brady, Brees, Rivers, Eli and other older vets retire and that demand goes up even more?

So basically the Redskins made the mistake selling the farm for RG3 and now the Rams are paying it forward to the Titans

Wonder if it is Wentz or Goff they want?

Rumor is Wentz

The Rams have been 7-9 the past few seasons with a very good defense and poor offense. They've been Seahawk killlers the past few seasons and the 49ers are much further away from competing. Arizona is starting a 36 year old QB with no replacement in sight. Picking 10-15 every year is a tough way to get a Franchise QB and they had an extra 2nd this year from the Bradford trade.

IMO, it was now or never for the Rams.

The Rams sold 45,000 season tickets in the first 48 hours. There's plenty of "excitement" for the NFL in Los Angeles but this move wasn't unexpected because they didn't have a legit starter on the roster and weren't interested in developing Lynch.

It probably means the Chargers go after Tunsil who will be a HUGE help for them.

I'd have rather seen them take Ramsey than Tunsil. Ramsey may be a great player, but he won't make as big a difference for them as an elite LT would.

They should take Buckner

I don't buy the idea that this will automatically make the Titans a better team. The extra picks are nice but making the right draft decisions isn't easy.

The Rams received all those picks from Washington and never made it to the playoffs, while Washington has been in the playoffs twice since the trade.

Plus, the Titans retained Mike Mularkey as their head coach. That alone proves that Jon Robinson isn't the brightest of NFL GM's.

That's what you got out of that...
