kmoore1521 1,464 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio reports, "The Rams are currently in discussions regarding a possible trade of RB Todd Gurley." It remains to be seen how much, if anything, teams are willing to give up to trade for Gurley. The 25-year-old RB has a troubling history of knee injuries and is signed through 2023. Releasing Gurley would leave behind an absurd $25.6 million in dead money, making a trade the only potential pathway for the Rams to part ways with their long-time RB. While Gurley managed to score 14 touchdowns last season, his average of 4.2 yards per touch was the lowest mark since his infamous 2016 Jeff Fisher-induced campaign. There's plenty of potential for a committee to emerge in 2020 if Gurley is ultimately back with the Rams. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryansm11 2,165 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I can’t imagine anyone actually tradings or him unless They get a pick in the deal also. He’s washed. Bucs would be much better off signing Gordon in my opinion. 3/36 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hunt has an easy 5years left on his body. Other than that bring in the cheap veteran spare parts of devonta freeman, dion lewis, carlos hyde, lamar miller,etc and see who you can squeeze some mileage out of. The passing attack should make the need for an elite rb less critical. Spend the money on the other parts of your team Edited March 19, 2020 by dashoe Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dontclapGonorrhea 376 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 If I am the Dolphins I ask for their 2nd and 2 3rds, take on cooks and gurleys contract. Send a 5 6 7 rounder back. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dschddny 99 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 so who's the #1 now, Malcolm Brown or DHenderson? Think they bring in someone else to start like Gordon? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I will never understand the harsh criticism of players, claiming they are greedy when they are trying to get everything they can get while playing a violent sport where their employer can pretty much move on from them at any time with little to no penalty. It wasn't that long ago that Gurley was on top of the world. I was all for Leveon Bell making the stand when he did and I think more players should do it too. But hey, they're the ones that continue to agree to these CBAs... Edited March 19, 2020 by ThreadKiller 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But a whole host of NFL defenders come from Alabama. I'm not saying it's the same thing. What I am saying is that automatically discounting a rookie RB's pass pro skills, when he's already demonstrated them against the highest level of talent possible at his level because other rookie RBs have struggled in pass pro, doesn't seem like a done deal to me. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
