The Rams are going into a new market and they need a face of the franchise, so the trade makes sense from that perspective.

Tennessee could do what the Rams failed to do... turn a blockbuster trade into a Cowboys-like coup re the Herschel Walker trade.

I will say this though, every one of you guys are badly underrated Wentz.
Wentz has everything you look for in a franchise QB, accuracy, smarts, athleticism, strong arm, ability to run, and ideal size. He's got legitimate superstar ability.
Having said that, as much as I truly believe that Wentz has the ability to become special, I also think that throwing him into the fire as a rookie is a MONUMENTALLY stupid idea. HUGE mistake!
If the Rams ruin Wentz career, I'll hate them with the energy of a thousand suns.
I'm not saying the Rams will take Wentz mind you, fortunately I think they might just double down on their stupidity, and take Goff and ruin his career.
That is my hope.
The better of the two QB's is definitely Wentz though!

I dunno. We'll see. I just think this was an all in decision that's very sketchy.

Oly wrote:The only "pick" I'm willing to stand by isn't the boldest: the Rams will be worse off for having made the move. I think next year's #1 will be top 10 if not top 5, and they're going to regret it. Even if Goff/Wentz pans out, they're going to be talent-thin at a bunch of other places on a team that has a lot of holes to fill.
At the end of the day, though, this move should help the Hawks win the division, so I'm happy!
