Rams don't need to change the team. Forget that trade. Rams have a great team.
LA Rams Is set at Wide Receiver with Kupp Nacua, Robinson, Whittington and Stoops.
tutu still should get a mention
@@jacobbagels2899 Forgot about Tutu Atwell
"Stoops" will be lucky to make the practice squad.
@jacobbagels2899 tutu making the big plays when needed then he gets pulled out 🫥
And they got kyren for the ground game/short passes so they can really spread the ball and have a variety to keep everyone fresh
We have Coop and Puka,we're good. There's salary cap to consider to,I'm fine with our WR studs
I'd complain big time with a huge zero need cap hit and trade. Give me an elite Left Tackle all day over any of that nonsense
For the time Bennett was here playing last year, he looked decent . Hell, he played better than any other QB for rookies last year ! He's going to prove you wrong, Rodgers! Bennett will prove you wrong! He's been fighting people like you all of his life .
The cost for Jefferson will leave me with concerns especially considering you have to pay him and Stafford want more money and already have kupp on the books it's not realistic
The duo is going to work and back ups will step up (hopefully).. let’s not pick up JJ
Bennett did not reveal why he missed last year.
That boy was off those psych meds
“Mental issues “ from another report he somewhat confirmed
No on Jefferson rebuilding the line would be way to go especially left tackle when Stafford has time he is one of the best in NFL
No. Dont need to be strapped with a huge salary
I think we all can agree it’d be great to have Jefferson on the Rams, but I don’t think the Rams should trade for him. He’s too expensive and I think he’s a Viking for life
I love that you jumped on this story right away and gave it your expert analysis, Jake.
JJ would add more top end speed in WR room , which would get the defense OUT of that tight (man to man holding. See Puka Detroit play off game) . It’s NOT a luxury, it’s a necessity!!
No need for Jefferson. We have Cooper, remember?
Cooper bound to get hurt I’ll take Justin over cooper anyday
If there was ever a chance you could get jefferson, u get em!!! 😂😂😂
But it won't happen anyway
You taking Cooper or Justin? Be real, think rationally please.
@@RosecransBoryCooper Kupp is way better than Jefferson. Cooper Kupp' s TD helped the LA Rams to get the Lombardi Trophy.
Jefferson? For that price? No.
I like the Rams continuing to develop their own talent. Stafford has proven he can throw a white guy to triple crown and a fifth round pick to breaking all WR rookie records...all Jefferson will do is drain the team of money and create problems. Now, if it's a late season dump off like in the OBJ situation, sure but not in some break the bank, mortgage your future type stunt.
I like Robinson, I think Atwell has only show small flashes but I think the core is pretty solid and the off season reports are REALLY promising. Kupp admitted he was dealing with issues in secret but we ALL saw it. Him and Nacua worked together in the off season and Kupp have Puka PUKING in the bushes...so, Kupp hasn't lost a step, he was a little banged up. He's ready to have a BANGER season.
I would be complaining! LT or better TE or another edge rusher!
LA Rams has a practice squad. For Undrafted Free agents.
No JJ!!
You can never have enough talented receivers. Depends on the players they would want.
No on JJ !! I like our core
I would hate it, because if you bring in Jefferson you've just made Williams and Corum obsolete, we'd have to throw the ball 55 times a game and then some. It looks good on paper. Please god don't do it!.
I wouldn't...I think there fine with the team they have ..I thought the were going to run the ball more this year .
DMac, seems there are many (including me) Ram fans who are not excited at the prospect. We may not have the best WR group, but they can stand against any defense. If they bring in a star, bring in a tackle. The front office had a good draft to create a competitive team and we need the cap space. Thanks for the show.
Man i remember the days all the hold outs, wow, this is not our daddys Rams anymore, TCB, 😊
If anyone in these comments knew what Stetson & the Georgia Dawgs went through just a few hours After winning the second national title!!! just 8 months later Stetson is on the Rams Nfi list!!!
Only 8 months months after the Dawgs had a very tragic Accident that injuried people & killed 2, one was a very close friend/ teammate the other was a female team Recruit analyst that was actually driving the vehicle and she also died!!! 3 more Georgia dawgs were injured and one more recruiting,Female analyst was seriously in!!!
How quick everyone forgets one of the BIGEST keys to our last Superbowl. When the Rams got OBJ, which freed up our other weapons, giving them space to ball-out, because defenses couldn't key on or double just one guy.
If anything we should try and trade for Darwin James Jr that would benefit us much more in my opinion.
If the rams can fix Stetson Bennett they can absolutely 💯…..
FIX THE HORNS ON THE HELMET 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
NO BROKEN HORNS!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
It would be great to open up the other receivers. Van and tutú were supposed to be our deep threats but yea haha he would have to understand the program and not be bigger than the team.
I've always believed in Bennett. Rams drafted him so there's that value on him. Mental issue is why he missed last year... you jus said that DMac. But that's human... no one's perfect. Keep moving forward and let's play football. Let's Go Rams!
If we could get him and keep him u do it. Coop is nearly done. If he’s not it’s still an upgrade.
I think alcohol ha d something to do with Stetson Bennett. On January 28, 2023, Bennett was arrested in Dallas, Texas on public intoxication (wikipedia). I hope he's put it behind nim.
Anxiety is a real issue for so many people.
A couple beers or drinks improves many a tennis and golf game
Hello Doug ... You found that Rams fan you were looking for. The Rams are already locked and loaded on offense. I am more interested in the left tackle like you said. OR a defensive star. The Rams have new top receivers in the making. Already set to make an SB run.They will be even more awesome next year bringing those guys along and will be filling the holes that develop. My next thought it is time to find the next starting QB. Do you see or will be watching for any College QB that the Rams might get in the next couple of drafts? It would have to be a sleeper as they will be too low in the draft unless they can trade up. OR ....You finish the thought? The next Stafford type trade move?
Jefferson needs us more. Maybe down the stretch if he wants to be surrounded by winning class and is reasonable
Would they trade Kupp for him ?
Regardless of whether we “need him” or not… he’s one of the best…. You ALWAYS need the best… unless we are three-peating Super Bowls, we always “Need” weapons…
What are we talking about???
Why Doug taking a shot at Latu?
Because Verse is Better
I wouldn't lose my 💩 if the Rams did get Jefferson, but I agree that I'd rather have a Left Guard. But if we had him we'd be very dangerous. I just can't see how it'd work with Jefferson wanting $35M/year. He'd have to be willing to take a bit of a team friendly deal with the strong possibility of winning a Super Bowl. Besides, if he came out to LA he'd be getting endorsements to make up for whatever amount that he have to agree to that'd be less than the $35M that he wants.
We need a LT, TE, CB, or OLB verses a wr
Don't do it Rams...he is good but not worth all that to give up... 8:45
I prefer a square of receivers over just one. I like a committee of receivers. Another thing Stafford has a tendency to to always throw to a new toy. Then at what cost both picks and money we will have to shell out. So that’s a no for me
I would give up kupp hoeght and next years number 1 for Jefferson, boom 💥 🤯
The loss of AD will be vastly worse than pundits are willing to podcast!
I want them to go fuck them picks again. They got Nacua, Turner, Young, Williams, and Avila all within the last 2 drafts. They had a really good draft this year based on the picks they got where they got them. Obviously you can never know if a player will truly be good until the NFL. However with all that Stafford has 2-4 years left of being a top 10 QB. The rebuild is around the corner anyways. Let's go win now again. I don't know if Jefferson is the right guy to trade for but certainly we should be all in for the next 2 years.
Heed Jason Kelce explanation about how O-Lines "used to specifically gameplan for AD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Imma go 'No' on JJ - he's an amazing talent no question but Doug's right. If we're going to bring in an elite talent it should be on the OL. Does it put us over the top offensively - I'm not so sure.
I say yes to Jefferson only if we keep Kupp, Puka.
The cost for jefferson is not ever going to be in the plans for les sneed.
Cant wait for the day for bennet to become the starting QB of an NFL and aaaaalll these nay sayers eat their words when he gets them a Super Bowl.
We traded away Skowronek... he was number 18... JJ is number 18 coincidence?
I can't wait to watch Stetson make Travis eat his words and look like a fool.
Minny is not trading him to the Rams maybe to an AFC team not an NFC team
No. The Rams are going to be over the cap and Justin Jefferson is a luxury and not a need. Rams need to allocate money to other players.
Unless Cooper Kupp gets traded straight up for Justin Jefferson, that may work.
Rams could use linebacker, justin Simmons in secondary ,cut or trade notebloom save some money hes always hurt and see what team decent offensive lineman in late August, J.J Would be nice but Vikings will have take Cooper Knupp and his salary
Rams don’t need Justin Jefferson, come on guys. A defensive player makes more sense. .. or offensive tackle.
Why?
Price would be too high
Nahh we got COOOOOOOOPERRRR KUPPP SBMVP!!!
I’ll take jj over anyone but ceedee lamb seems more realistic then jj but im cool with either if they can get any of them
We definitely didn't need that trade with Kupp and Nacua we are better than fine and 35M it's too much, if we didn't have Kupp and Nacía Maybe but triple crown and you want Jefferson LOoool , lot of Rams here are not agree we don't want and need him
WHY? The WR room is already stacked. Why spend money and draft picks on a older WR? They are done remodelling this offense.
JJ is 24. The receiver room is Kupp, Puka, and a bunch of 3s/special teams quality receivers. I love Kupp but if you could trade him early for JJ. You save yourself from the heartbreak of him getting injured when you need him. Look at Woods and Cooks.
Agreed if Rams get JJ there's no telling that he might start complaining about not getting targets. Not t mention the money that he's going to want. I would also pass on him.
I WOULD "PASS" on JEFFERSON; PUN INTENDED!!!
I don't know about stacked. They're in great shape if Kupp returns to his Triple crown form
I dont agree, we dont need JJ, i would just like are secondary to be good
Don't need Jefferson and Bennett is a bust. We need to get a future Quarterback in the next 2 years.
NO JJ get a tackle if we want to upgrade at a certain spot
The People's Choice!
I'd be happy to trade Stetson Bender for JJ. Stetson can't get his sh together on the biggest stage and opportunity, get rid of him.
There are only so many balls to go around
If they aren't throwing TD's in the Super Bowl, they aren't worth that money.
I'm that Rams fan.....
We don't need or want Jefferson and I would be pissed if they did that.
Fake fans want their team to look sexy.
i would complain
No, too much $$. Yes only to a LB or LT.
How many more pts will he add my guess a point or so more and it's not worth it
No play have a top notch receiving crew and we don't need black big hey salary capital hit for a wide receiver first given up too many draft picks it's a stupid trade
get him
We have Kupp, smh🙄
Lame and unnecessary idea to bring JJ in. Too much to lose and for what? We are great and dont need ANOTHER WR. Use that trade equity from that idea to get stalwart LT
Rams will regret letting Carson Wentz go...
RAMS 🐏 TRADE FOR JUSTIN JEFFERSON?!?! TOOO MUCH WISHFUL THINKING GOING ON, might skip this one tbh
Nope
there's only one ball
You guys are way off the spot with this j jettas take.
NO! not worth it.
Jefferson isn't old lol he's 24
Trade Bennett to the Faiders for Brock Bowers
Delusional.
No
Could we even afford it
Jefferson seems like a malcontent everywhere he goes.🤔
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Think I may be done with locked in rams lol. Jake ellenbogen for the win
