There seem to be four relevant topics in sports headlines in recent days: The 2020 NFL Draft, NFL Free Agency, Bill O’Brien’s reckless personnel moves, and how Les Snead’s 2020 clean up of the LA Rams personnel contracts demonstrates bad fiscal management. Well, not to be a contrarian, but the 2020 clean up effort is what follows when the team signed terribly burdensome contracts and failed to consider any feasible out-clauses. So the chatter in recent days of how trading WR Brandin Cooks is a bad thing is a bit mistimed. In fact, it’s very much akin to closing the barn door after the horse escaped.
LA Rams biggest gaffe was Aqib Talib, not Cooks nor Gurley
