Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

T.O.

It's completely preposterous, but I feel like I have to ask. T.O. a Ram?

There's not a snowball's chance this would happen. Even if T.O. weren't T.O., the salary demands would be too high for the Rams, and wipe out whatever budget they have to add depth. More importantly, Owens is exactly the kind of player the Rams don't need right now in their locker room. A 'me first' guy for a team just starting out in a new direction would be disastrous.

On the other hand, Owens is usually relatively contained in his first season or two with a new team. It's only once things get rolling that he lobs a hand grenade into the locker room, metaphorically speaking of course.

Over at his blog, Mike Sando runs down the possibilities of T.O. landing in the NFC West. It doesn't seem likely. Not that it would matter, the Rams held him to just two catches for 31 yards and no TDs in their week seven win over the Cowboys last season.

Rams Gab is right on the money: "Don't do it."

I agree with

the consensus. Don’t touch him. Not only is he a distraction, his production is down and he’s not getting any younger.

I think that had more to with Brad Johnson than Owens.

With Holt wanting out, what do the Rams do at receiver? Does this mean they pretty much have to take Crabtree? I’d rather see them take an OT and keep Holt, myself.

no

but he is an aggresive receiver who makes plays something the rams dont have .I would say 1 year minimum contract something like marbury got with the celtics,but then again no ,lets just get a receiver in round two or three

the west is ours

by jaram on Mar 6, 2009 1:01 AM CST reply actions  

YES

but only sign him to a 2 year contract…….Owens is always a good student for the first couple of years with a team………..then the clock winds down and something inside him thinks “Im too good for everyone” which IMO is where he goes wrong

Not happening

PFT has “inside sources” that confirm we will have no part in TO’s wackiness. Feel free to throw away any popcorn you might have made.

Jay Zygmunt, now that you have fired yourself, please have yourself hired by Seattle. Thanks.
