Why Matthew Stafford is not tradeable

The Los Angeles Rams may hate money. I don’t think they hate money so much that they would trade Matthew Stafford during the 2024 season, however.

Despite a lot of perfectly reasonable people coming up with perfectly reasonable reasons for the Rams to trade Stafford should the Rams continue to lose—whether those reasons actually exist in NFL and L.A.’s front office notwithstanding—the truth of the matter is that there are just too many obstacles between that future possibility and this current reality that we live in.

Now, I would add in there that if the Rams lose, trade rumors won’t go away. Does that really bother you more than the Rams...losing their way into baseless (or based) trade…
