2016 NFL Draft News
With the draft just around the corner, I thought it'd be a good idea to have a thread about draft related news, trades, etc. Starting with a big one:
Rams move up to get the #1 overall pick from Titans, here are the details: Tennessee Titans trade No. 1 pick to Los Angeles Rams Field YatesVerified account @FieldYates Terms of the deal: Titans gets LA’s 1st, 2nd, 2nd, & 3rd in 2016, 1st & 3rd in 2017. LA gets Titans’ 1st, 4th & 6th in 2016.

Re: 2016 NFL Draft News
Big gamble for the Rams. Looks like they want Goff or Wentz

Is Vinny running the Rams front office? Sheesh.

Re: 2016 NFL Draft News
Its gotta be for Wentz or Goff
Irony that the Rams are pulling off this trade...giving up the house for a QB after watching us fail doing it with them as our partner.

Re: 2016 NFL Draft News
The Rams trying to bring in the local guy Goff with the Cali-brand or they taking Wentz? Im thinking Wentz

Re: 2016 NFL Draft News
Yeah no way they give up that much and don't take a qb. I'll put my money on Goff. He's already got the experience of playing at a big time program in Cali, and I wouldn't be surprised if some scouts don't like Wentz because he's a late bloomer.

Re: 2016 NFL Draft News
Holy crap, after seeing how bad we failed at this type of thing I expected a repeat of this kind of trade to become rare.
Slick move by the Titans, they can still get pretty much what they needed in the first round with the 15th pick. They also now have 6 picks in the first three rounds.

Re: 2016 NFL Draft News
John Keim pretty much killing Jeff Fisher on twitter. Says this is more of Fisher buying another 4 years as a HC and wonder how Fisher keeps his job. Says overrated. Gotta agree.

Re: 2016 NFL Draft News
Since the Rams ownership doesn't seem to care much about football and more about selling their brand, I'm thinking Goff.

Re: 2016 NFL Draft News
Only reason I see Fisher continually sticking around is ownership being content with his mediocre results. I'm betting this buys him a couple more years max before ownership realizes they need to do more to get fans in the seats.

Re: 2016 NFL Draft News
But I thought Goff wasn't big enough, blah, blah, blah. If he's not the #1 pick, he will still be one of the top 10 picks. Been saying Fisher sucks for years, screw that jerk.

Re: 2016 NFL Draft News
Amazing to me this is the year and these are the QBs that someone makes a major play for....Winston/Marriota were superior QB prospects compared to Wentz/Goff.
I think this move makes zero sense for the Rams. Zero fuckin sense for either of these QB. This move is much more about brand/and selling shit versus football. Rams got hard knocks too. Sell sell sell

Re: 2016 NFL Draft News
This shakes things up quite a bit. It now virtually ensures a QB will go #1, meaning the second QB just benefitted as well.
Cleveland at 2 might opt to take the 2nd best QB, and you have to figure there's no way the 2nd QB would get past San Fran at 7. I just love it because I think this locked the Eagles out of being able to get one of them at 8. I love seeing that team mired in QB purgatory.
