N/S Rams plan to trade WR Cooper Kupp (12 Viewers)

Do not want but that was classy. And he’s right, about how we respond.

Cooper Kupp is the only Rams player I like. The rest can eat rocks

If we can get him in with cap room.

We can go in the draft

Rd 1Tyler warren
Rd 2Grey zab
Rd 3 Cam skattebo

That would give KM weapons on offense for rattler

Doubt we will land tee higgins so may kupp

I’d like him to come here as a legacy signing. His grandfather, Jake Kupp, was one of my favorite players as a kid and one of very few pro-bowlers in our early years.

Bring him in to kick the tires and whatnot?

Saints should toy w/ trading Olave. His ceiling seems similar to Brandin Cooks who they traded just b4 his 4th year.

Then Make a run at Higgins. Higgins + Shaheed would be = to AJ Brown + Devonta Smith.

Can Olave be a part of a trade to land Tee Higgins?

His film doesn’t lie he’s not the same guy he once was. I get it, it’s injuries with some age sprinkled in but as someone already mentioned…… this is a smart guy move .

He still has some ball left in him but not at that money and role. If he stays injury free he could have a good season maybe 2 tops but the end is near for him. Amazing player to watch thru the years but sad thing is receivers are a dime a dozen in the draft. You can easily replace him that way plus the emergence of Puka Nacua made him expendable.

Honestly, this is a good way to deal with an aging vet. It’s an insult to ask him to take a pay cut when the potential is there to earn that same $$ from someone else. If he values being in LA and his teammates, once he sees what the market bares for his services he may be open to redoing his deal.

The chances are low but not non-existent that someone will trade for him and keep the contract but I would guess a trade will be contingent on him redoing his deal with less money and more guarantees for him. It’s a way to let other teams be the barer of that bad news. It lets the Rams save some face because they tried to get him paid but it just didn’t work out.

This is what smart teams do. It’s also the right thing to do for the person and the player because if there is someone out there willing to pay him that much with his injury history and age it allows him to maximize his earning potential while he’s still in the league.

Not interested... this would be a final piece trade.... we are nowhere near making final piece trades.... we need a head coach a starting QB....
Until we those two locked down it's pointless to be trading fir an old injury proned WR
