You have to be at least a decent blocker to be a complete receiver. He isn't.

I won’t even say that I disagree with your post, but you used the word “whatever” three times in one-run on sentence. I can’t take you seriously now

I didn't watch a lot of Rams games last year.

Are Woods and Kupp any good at blocking?

I know a Sammy Watkins bobble kept us in the game against them last year. They stayed aggressive and it backed fired almost but.. the Wade Phillips defense prevailed b/c of a good D-line mostly. The Rams dropped a few sure picks that day and I guess that inspired the rookie head coach to get cute and pass anyway when his team had the game pretty much wrapped up.

I think it should be noted that the Pats tried really hard to extend Cooks throughout the season but weren’t going to overpay for him. People acting as if he was shipped from NE due to fit or locker room issues are silly. He was a really good player and didn’t have any issues in the locker room, they just knew they weren’t going to be able to pay him what he was looking for and luckily found someone to pay a great price for him as an asset

Rams have a ton of cap money available next year. I'm pretty sure they are 3rd as far as available cap space next year

The perk of having a solid qb on a rookie deal and Aaron Donald playing for peanuts.

The issue is when Donald gets paid. Goff is cheap for another 3 years.

Rams just extended Gurley. That cap will keep getting eaten into.

I really do think the Rams are going to disappoint a lot of people that are hyping them up

This isn't right from a cap perspective (we're always right up against it), nor from a paying receivers perspective (both Colston and Moore (moreso Colston) got paid).

On Cooks hate, I certainly don't hate him and I think he is a very good receiver who is more than a deep threat, but I did knock his run blocking skills because he isn't good at it.

On the Rams, I really think they are one of those in one year out the next. They changed too much of their core imo. At the very least I don't think they win the division this year (though overall that division is still pretty weak).
