The Rams may very well have taken Nix. However, the plan would have been to let Nix sit for two years maybe three before getting him on the field. The Rams interest in my mind confirms that Nix is in no way ready to be an NFL starter.

This may be true, probably is, but Stafford's contract runs out in 2026, and according to Spotrac, the Rams have an out for the 2026 season in place. And it's also true that Matt has had some serious injuries recently including a spinal injury a couple seasons ago, and he'll be 38 in 2026. just saying, now would be a decent time to begin preparing his replacement in a couple years if that was the direction they were thinking. |

Who would Stafford return for the Rams to draft his replacement instead of using a top 15 pick to make him not retiring actually worth it? Dude was thinking hard about retirement last year. He's not coming back just to groom the next guy. |

Watching Knowmo try to justify the hilarity of Payton claiming he thought Mahomes was the best QB he ever scouted while sitting with his dick in his hands and getting completely ****ed is amazing

Oh, I agree. Matt's still playing at a very high level, and looks like he's fully committed to trying to win another SB. But the end is pretty near, and McVay has to be thinking about replacing him sooner rather than later, no? (I'm not saying at all that McVay was seriously looking to draft nix, btw. Personally, I think McVay still has his eye on Baker in 2026 if Matt retires) |

"B-b-but what about poor Brees feelings?!?"
The Saints hadn't even made the playoffs for 3 seasons prior to the 2017 draft. Payton would have been perfectly within reason to trade up and ensure Mahomes, you know, considering he was the bestestestest QB he ever did saw. |
