Los Angeles Rams
The Rams won a battle of wills with Aaron Donald a year ago, and his holdout accomplished very little, if anything at all. But I wouldn't suggest going down that road again. Getting the game's premier defensive player locked up for the future is a must. After franchising him two years in a row, corner Trumaine Johnson will not be back with the Rams, according to a league source. He leaves with $30 million in his pocket from the last two years. I'd also be shocked if Tavon Austin is back with the Rams; they save $8 million in cash by letting the former first-round pick go. Some have suggested Rodger Saffold could go, but the Rams really like him as a player and a person, and his versatility is a plus. I expect him to be back.

Who suggested that Rodger Saffold could go? He isn't going anywhere this year and Rams should redo his contract.

I hope lesson learned on this one Jake.

That's the immutable Captain Ron (Kurt Russell).

One of the best and easiest Halloween costumes I ever wore. People have always said I look like Kurt so in the 90's when I had long hair in the same style as aptain Ron I threw on a patch an earing and some Captain Ron clothes and despite being on the crazy streets of Sam Fran with all the costume madness I was frequently hearing people call out Captain Ron! Wish I had a pic. Oddly enough I was dating. A girl who looked A lot like Goldie Hawn at the time.

I love Tru, but I see the Rams going in a different direction.

I think the Rams REALLY need to sign Joyner long term (looking at his market value, probably in the ballpark of 5yrs/$55M). Then Rams can make a decision on Robey-Coleman (I'd like him back on a 1 or 2 year deal) and then go to the draft for Tru's replacement.
 
I mean, the "some have suggested line" is really poor reporting on La Canfora's part. That's not even citing an unnamed source. It's basically saying a fart in the wind may have sounded like these words. A better way to report it would be for him to offer it as his own analysis. Ugh.

I mean, honestly, if you were to put percentages on it, how many of you felt like we had a good chance of keeping Trujo? I think every one of us has a fair price in our head as to what we'd pay him and the market price will be waaaay beyond that.

Trujo's a gonner and I'd really love to lock up Watkins as I think we're gonna be in a world of hurt if we can't use the franchise tag on Joyner.

I think they offered him several million less per year than his agent thinks he can get in FA. I've been saying this since mid season and I dont see any reason to change my opinion. Go get butler or someone who wade thinks is a starter and make CB the top priority in the draft. I think hill has a future as a starter and I'm not at optimistic about Webster being back to form until at least mid season. Obviously sign NRC and Joyner.

Haha best movie
 
No chance for Tru??? Just seems strange to draft all those corners....and not one remains on the roster....especially J. Jenkins.

Exactly. Its either yes, or no. I just have a problem with people posting, tweeting,.. using any social media outlet to proclaim that "xyz" is a done deal when its not. Thats what this article, and post is about. Clearly, its nothing personal; don't get it twisted.

JLC has had info ahead of time on TruJo in the past. Wonder if he's in with his agent. I'd be shocked if we paid him this offseason to be honest.

Maybe. But I think we'd all be shocked if he was back with the team. So stating that he has some unidentified league source is... well.... yawn. And does anyone know what "league source" even means? Personally, I wouldn't classify an agent as a league source. But I could easily see where it could be looked at that way. It's like saying someone with knowledge of the NFL. Ambiguity is the benchmark of lazy journalism.
