Rams trade for Dante Fowler (2 Viewers)

People in LA....

How are they affording all of the players they signed this year? I get that Goff is still on his rookie deal, but just Donald and Suh alone make grip

I was about to come here to say that they seem to be mortgaging the future a bit, but I guess we're guilty of the same.

I understand the urgency on our part, but not so much on theirs.

Are people really worried about him? Lol

A tad if we did not have all pro tackles. He's going to get a good amount of sacks just off single blocking because of Suh and Donald and he's definitely capable of that. Last year he had 8 sacks playing with a similar talented Jags defense.

When Goff gets his rookie deal, they wont be able to keep everybody. So you go for it now while the team is loaded. The Seahawks are a perfect example of why this strategy works.

This year he has 2 sacks.

FWIW... He has 8 total tackles and 2 sacks on the year so far.... He's definitely underachieved since coming into the NFL as a 3rd overall pick 3 years ago.

This will either be a steal or complete bust for the Rams (nothing in between) IMO.

Rams are not the Warriors, they haven’t won anything yet.

He's a legit outside pass rusher. And helps solve the biggest problem area on their team. Good trade for them.

He has not played as much this year. Had 8 sacks last year and 5 passed defensed with 3 tackles for loss and 4 sacks his rookie year. Not #3 pick worthy, but not a bust.

Whatever. We have one of, if not the, best offensive lines in the league.

Good luck pal.

 

[El Caliente]

He hasn’t been the player they were counting on with that 1st round pick. Dude is being run out of town by Yanick.

Didn't say he was a bust.... I said... This will either be a steal or complete bust for the Rams (nothing in between) IMO. I also said that so far he has underachieved for a 3rd overall pick.

I think that's fair.

We shall see.
