Rams rumor watch

Uh oh, we've got a rumor sighting...two rumors actually. Let's evaluate.

Both came in the form of a question posed to ESPN's Mike Sando in his mailbag post from today. The first one stinks to high heaven: Rams looking to trade Alex Barron for a draft pick. No way. The team legitimately thinks Barron can be a good LT, and if he can cut down on the penalties he will be. And, as Sando points out, this team can't afford to trade working offensive linemen.

The second rumor has the Rams swapping TE Joe Klopfenstein to the Broncos for DE Jarvis Moss. This one sounds more like a fan playing armchair general manager on a message board somewhere, connecting disappointing recent draft picks on the roster bubble for each team. It's got to be a rumor, and the only thing giving it a whiff of cred is Denver's wacked out management. I don't see the Broncos giving up on their first round pick from '07 just yet, though the switch to a 3-4 moves him closer to the old roster knife. Klop's as good gone with the Rams, but you'd think teams could just wait it out...unless they don't want to compete with other bidders.

Rams would need to toss in a 7th round pick to proceed with this trade.

Winning Attitude

  Alex ‘s attitude is not going to work for coach Spag,Alex just doesn’t seem to care,win or loose and Klop just stinks these guys have no fire even Bulger has shown some heat about all this loosing but these two, they are just not what the future of Rams football is ,they want guys who act like they want to turn things around.

+ Moss? Then, - Little

Klop for Moss all day, sure that’s fun to dream about considering our needs on the D line but can you see them keeping both Moss and Little and then paying one of them to sit on the bench for 66% of the downs? Even if we concede they might utelize all DE’s on some 3rd downs, I doubt they’d put all that salary on the bench for 1st and 2nd.

Lived in LA during the Rams and Raiders days. Now based in NorCal, I am still a die hard Rams fan and Raiders season ticket holder.
