The LA Rams have been in the mix for virtually every NFL star cornerback in the past five years. So if you want to pressure the NFL to create a market for a cornerback, you leak the player’s name and link him to the LA Rams.

The LA Rams are the go-to name to drop for any NFL cornerback because, realistically, they have been heavily involved in trading for, and then trading away, marquis NFL cornerbacks for the past two seasons.
