He was declared a full participant in practice today. He would indeed be a complimentary receiver for Russ. His personality and grit does fit with this team. Khan should call the Rams to see if they’ll take Van Jefferson and an Iron City for him…

He would be the PERFECT #2 WR. He runs routes that are as crisp as overcooked bacon, has great hands, runs a lot of routes in the middle of the field, and blocks well.

I would love to have him wearing Black & Gold but man, the price would be high. Also, the Rams supposedly believe they are still in the hunt at 3-4 due to the 49ers problems.
 
Love the way he plays.
27 million a year….31 years old…often injured. Would cost us high draft choices.
If we are going to spend that type of money let’s do it through FA for someone younger. So we can save our draft picks as well.
I can only imagine what George is going to ask for when the time comes.

Personally I hope we find our WR in the draft. On that 4-5 year rookie contract.
 
So let me explain why he isnt coming here either

He is under contract for two more seasons... so he isnt a rental... he also carries a hefty cap hit...
There certainly is a chance they decide to rebuild, but they dont have any need to sell him before the draft, where his values will be highest...

Getting him now will almost certainly cost a large asset overpayment.
We arent giving them a first for an old guy... so he is not coming here
 
Adam Thielen is more likely. He's 34, though.
 
I think Green Bay is interested in him.
 
last thing Green Bay needs is another WR. They have 3-4 dudes who can start anywhere.
 
Might not need anybody this season. Russ seemed to find open receivers.

I think we need to spend a high draft pick on WR, but also DL.


Salute the natiobn
 
From what I read Rams want a 2nd and are willing to eat some contract..

If I were the GM, I would consider this. Especially if they are willing to eat some of his contract. Makes it more attractive to me-especially since he has been injury prone and 31. He would really turn your offense into a contender with Russ at QB. I wouldn’t be surprised to see what happens after Monday night with the Giants and then trying to shake Darius Slayton free from them .
