    I saw a tweet - the Rams have lost a lot of talent
    Granted, they are good about replacing it - but they have lost some pretty good players.

    That said, today, I probably still have them better than either of the two teams from the Bay of Pigs.

      They’ve lost more players than they have replaced in FA including SJD, Miller, Woods, and Daryl Williams. Those low draft picks and developing them are really the key to them continuing to do what they’re doing.

        Woods - coming off injury - has been replaced by Allen Robinson, which is an upgrade, IMO. Wagner gives them another solid veteran presence that they lost when Miller left (I realize they play different positions). They'll be fine. Certainly on the short list in the NFC to repeat.

          I am guessing a lot of this is funny money
          Yeah, don't see how they can possibly afford to sign him.

                Was it this one?

                  Probably helps that there’s less strong teams in the NFC.

                    Stanford’s extension freed up space this year. They’ll do the same for Kupp and Donald.

                      Besides the division winners, what strong teams are there? The 49ers and Cardinals are formidable, but QB holds them back from being better than they are.

                        Bucs and Packers really are the only challenges in the NFC.

                          That’s how you turn a SB winner into a talent deprived team fast, investing huge bucks in non critical positions.
                          Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
                          The Wasted Decade is done.
