@Rapsheet
The #Rams traded with the #Titans for No. 1, source said

@FieldYates Terms of the deal: Titans gets LA’s 1st, 2nd, 2nd, & 3rd in 2016, 1st & 3rd in 2017. LA gets Titans’ 1st, 4th & 6th in 2016.

Looks legit

Just heard on sports hub

But didnt know details

Fisher just pulled a Ditka, LMAO.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Tennessee effectively moving down 14 slots in round 1.

Who are the rams targetting?

 

[patsinthesnow]

By the way, I'm a big fan of Goff but if the Rams draft Wentz at #1 this trade is hilarious to me.

Jimmy G dominated the same level of competition that Wentz didn't, had better release/accuracy, but for some reason Wentz is projected top 3 and Jimmy G was a late 2nd round pick.

So are the Titans gonna bring out the players they draft with this haul to be team captains when they play the Rams like Mustache Mullet Moron did against the Washington football team?

Never change Fisher, you idiot. Looking like another 7-9 season, but this time it'll be a glitzy glamorous 7-9 season!

No, this time it will be followed by a progressively worse seasons because of a massive decline in draft capital over the next 2 years.

The fans will all be thinking "Wentz did our all our draft picks go?".

Wow, Fisher is an idiot. Robinson hoodwinked him. I am a little shocked such a trade was possible with such a weak QB class. I guess anything is possible with Jeff Fisher.

 

[Froob]

Is Fisher the GM in LA too?

 

[Ross12]

Wouldn't be surprised if the NFL has a hand in this - influenced LA Rams to trade for pick and take Jared Goff from Cal so people from LA will watch.

I don't like this trade, but there is one thing that should be in mind:

the Los Angeles Rams need excitment. They are new in the city, and they want someone to be their symbol. Trading up for a QB and getting the new face of the franchise in a new city is more valuable than another first round pick.

It could backfire badly, but i completely understand the decision

 

[JayNM]

This also means that Baltimore will have a chance to get a better non-QB prospect.

This deal, most likely, harm their long term team building which wouldnot be good for the franchise. It seems as if there would be a good chance for one of the top qbs in this draft to be there when they picked, or at least available with a smaller trade up that wasn't so exorbitant. Maybe theyre going after tunsil or bosa or ramsey, but thats still too much. I'm not a fan of the deal.

 

[Big Bucks]

Why not offer that for a starting vet. Makes me laugh when this happens.

FFS we are going to have a week of mocks frenzy now.

 

[IcyPatriot]

Now they did it ... hide the trade Brady thread and quickly.

 

[pheenix11]

Keep making decisions like this and the Rams will be moving back to St Louis in a few years.

You are right in the competitive side of things, but i don't think you are truly thinking about the "Marketing" standpoint. The LA Rams will need, more than anything else right now, to sell tickets. It is better to have an exciting commodity, even if uncertain, now and generate momentum and enthusiasm than to slowly build a team for the future. That's why i don't dislike the trade. If any established franchise did it, i would hate it.

Anyone think Greg Robinson could be moved to use Tunsil and go for a Power running game with Gurley. Or are we just talking Wentz as that was meant to be the Browns pick.
