The Los Angeles Rams were looking to strike gold this offseason, and they did so on Saturday by replacing Jared Goff.

The Lions traded Stafford to the Rams in exchange for Jared Goff, two future first-round picks, and a third-round pick.

Sam Farmer dropped some huge news on Sunday that the Rams actually tried to trade for Aaron Rodgers, but the Green Bay Packers remained adamant they were not trading him.

Dan Orlovsky, on the Rams, Matthew Stafford and WR Marvin Jones: “If I were them, I’d go sign Marvin I think it makes a ton of sense. Matthew and he have a great relationship. They obviously have a great rapport on the field.”https://t.co/3AGyaZRE1a

Wonder what HOU was asking for DW4. Shame.

As for as Stafford goes for the Rams, he leaves the Lions after recording 45,109 passing yards and 282 touchdowns during his career.

Goff was selected first by the Rams in the 2016 draft, and although he led the team to a Super Bowl, he fell out of favor with the team and coaching staff late in the 2020 season.
