That is crazy! They had to send a 7th with him AND pay some of his salary??? To only get a 7th back? Can't even say "Yeah but they did win a Super Bowl" they didn't even win the Super Bowl with him! What an awful deal for the Rams 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 1 hour ago, Thrivefourfive said: Pretty talent group down there. The Rams, oh my. They are most definitely playing for the 1 pick next year, and the opportunity to keep the college quarterback in LA. Ehhhh... They still have potential for a solid offense if stafford and kupp are healthy. Playmaker wise they could use a WR who can get open. But a lot of why their offense didn't work was protection They need to improve their offensive line a lot though, and their defense is Donald and not much else ( i do like Hoecht - sort of a young lorenzo alexander with the mid-season position switch and i love that kinda thing). But their defense wasn't good with Ramsay, Wagner, and Floyd either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Probably willing to trade a late-round pick to kick the tires on him esp if the Rams are willing to eat a chunk of the cap hit. For the Rams, they get a late-round pick and some down-the-road cap savings in exchange for a player that might be washed and is not fitting their timeline anyway. For the Steelers they get to kick the can on Robinson a player only one year removed from being a solid WR and it will likely only cost them a late round pick and a limited cap hit. 53 minutes ago, Warriorspikes51 said: That's a great deal for the Steelers. Too bad the Cardinals are being annoying and don't want to eat $ in a deal The issue seems to be the Cards want good draft compensation AND they are unwilling to eat money. Not realizing that teams aren't giving up premium picks and taking on a big contract for a player who is older and hasn't finished the past two seasons healthy.

Can't wait to watch the Robinson score a TD on the Rams (and have the Rams pay for 2/3rds of that paycheque). 9 minutes ago, Fleezoid said: Seems to be a new fad. Yeah...... let's not do that.......

Inigo Montoya Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) I watched him closely the last two seasons. (I drafted him both years in my FF league) He killed me both years. I'm not sure if Stafford just never looked at him and threw every ball to Kupp, or if Robinson just couldn't get open. I suspect it is the latter though because even in the handful of games where Kupp was banged up Robinson did not produce. I'm fine with him going to a conference rival. I think he is just a guy at this point in his career. It's a shame, he's another talented player who's career was crippled by the team that drafted him, the Jags, and then went to another team, the Bears, that also had terrible QB play. He had a couple of seasons where he flashed his potential. If he had a solid QB throwing to him he could have been special. He definitely had some tools.
