Draft RBs or sign mid-level FAs. Let other teams pay the big money RBs. We have an embarrassment of riches at RB and off the ball LBs in our franchise history but spending too many premium resources on non-premium positions has been a significant contributor to our overall losing record.

I would have no issue at all going with pretty much the same triumvirate we had last year.

Staley made it pretty clear in his remarks that he wants a stable of backs, not one star back.

No thanks. We already traded CMC, why would we replace him with another expensive RB?  Rather draft a RB in later rounds for depth and Chiefs have proven you can find good ones in later rounds (i.e. Pacheco) if you're good at scouting them.

Aaron Donald will be the big name traded that's a non QB.

 

Rams need to blow it up they need their picks back and that roster just isn't deep anymore to compete.

No team in their right mind would pay any sort of high draft picks for Donald.  Hes had one foot out the door for a few years now.  He very well may retire in the next year or so.

Agreed. If the Rams did try to trade Aaron Donald (assuming he doesn't have a no trade clause) I bet he would retire before he'd go to an undesired location. I "could" see him agreeing to go to a team like KC (who wouldn't want to play for those guys right now), Pittsburgh (he went to college there), or a team with a championship window still intact (Bengals, Bills, Philadelphia). He's made enough money to last for several lifetimes. He could probably retire now and leave the games with no regrets and walk Canton in 5 years.

Rams just released Bobby Wagner as well.  They are going to be a damn dumpster fire next year.  Not saying I wish we would have traded Burns to them last year, but one of those picks very well could be the first overall pick in the draft next season.  They are likely going to be moving Ramsey as well.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      It amuses me how Goff's name the last few years is often used to compare to subpar or underperforming QB's. Now on the surface I get it. But when you look at his numbers he's been the same QB all along. He's improved his completion % but even with the Rams he averaged 63.4. And that Super Bowl he played in they should have won honestly. If we can get a QB as good as Goff I'll be pretty damn pleased.

      And it remains to be seen if Goff has that ability or not. Plenty of very good QB's like Goff were not able to get over those playoff humps. Matt Ryan, Kirk Cousins, etc. You can still be an upper tier QB and never get over that hurdle. McVay just thought(and hasn't been wrong yet) Goff was never going to be that guy.

      We finally get to see Brooks this week

      You literally simply have to think logically for either of those guys. Smith is locked up on a deal for 2025, so we would have to trade for him or he gets cut. Neither of those scenarios are likely in the first place.  Wilson will be 37 in 2025. Why on earth would he have any interest in a situation that is far worse than he was given in Denver and wasn't able to win there? He's a guy that can drop into any ready to win franchise in the NFL and immediately elevate their chances of winning(provided they already have QB issues).  Frankly, that is either speculation that even David Newton should be embarrassed by or it shows how disconnected with reality some people in our organization are.   I do agree with him on getting a veteran QB, however. That's our best chance to keep developing our talent.
