Jaguars CB Jalen Ramsey Traded to Rams for 2 1st-Round Draft Picks, More

[Guest]

so they gave up a 2019 2nd and 4th for Peters.  They got a reserve LB for Peters. 

They gave up a 2021 5th for the center from the Browns.
Now a 1st in 2020 and 2021 and a 4th in 2021. 

This is reaching Herchel Walker type stuff.

And dont forget they traded their 2018 first for Brandin Cooks.

Rams are screwed, super dumb trade giving up first round picks 2 years in a row.

Their biggest issue is O-line:

They lost Roger Saffold.  LT Whitworth is at end of his career at 37.

It looks like the moves of a team that thinks they are definitely superbowl bound.

The problem here is their o-line isn't the same.  Have they just gone full Thelma & Louise with this Ramsey trade?

I'm thinking if this gambit doesn't pay off, they could be stewing in mediocrity for the next... 3 years? while they are forced to drop premium players and scour waivers for o-line talent like the vikes did for the last 5-10 years.

What if they go a cowboy-esque 8-8?  Ramsey will hate it and want out so he can 'win' somewhere else.  I'm wary of elite players who demand trades, in general.
