JustInFudge Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 25 minutes ago, JetFreak89 said: Sorry but you're wrong. The Rams have been making moves to cut salary this offseason because they need space to sign Aaron Donald, you know the first DT to win NFL DPOY since 1999. They COULDN'T pay Johnson and then had to trade for Peters (who is still cheap on a rookie contract) so they wouldn't lose so much talent at CB. Sorry, but you're wrong. The Rams have 31 mill in cap space. They could have signed Johnson easily, if they wanted too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The floor is littered with Starbucks cups. Filling one wall is a large fireplace containing a raging blaze. An armchair faces it. Pan to reveal MIKE MACCAGNAN draped in a hooded cloak. His face is nearly invisible within the hood. He stares vacantly into the flames. His eyes are like mirrors, reflecting the flames but revealing nothing within. BRIAN HEIMERDINGER enters the room quietly, so as not to disturb him. He silently moves across the cavernous space until he stands behind the chair. Though he has made no sound, MACCAGNAN seems to sense his presence. MACCAGNAN: Brian. HEIMERDINGER: Sir, Austin-Sefarian Jenkins has refused our latest offer. MACCAGNAN sighs deeply and closes his eyes. Though his physical position has not changed, he appears smaller, meeker, diminished somehow, as if the news were a heavy load placed upon his back. He opens his eyes. They are the eyes of a man much older than his years. MACCAGNAN: I knew this day would come. Silence descends over the room. It goes on--thirty seconds, sixty, ninety. Whole minutes pass. It grows awkward, then uncomfortable, then agonizing. The space seems to shrink around them. Finally, HEIMERDINGER, swallowing hard, speaks. HEIMERDINGER: Sir, we need a decision. MACCAGNAN sighs deeply and closes his eyes once more. When he opens them, they are filled with a strange combination of sorrow and purpose, as though he had come to a fateful decision not entirely of his own making. His voice, when it comes, is barely audible over the crackle of the flames. MACCAGNAN: Release the cupcakes. I was really hoping that a framed "Executive of the Year - 2015" would be in there somewhere but still BRAVO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Warfish Defense! You joke, but we have actually played defensive personnel groupings very very similar to that in games, just subtract 1 safety and add a QB and we pretty much have done that.
