The #Rams gave WR Odell Beckham Jr a 1-year deal worth up to $4.25M, source said.
Details: —
$500K signing bonus —
$750K for the rest of the season —
Another $3M available in team-based incentives for how they finish the regular season and the postseason.

Rams fleeced themselves.  Thank god Gutey is not a moron...today.

Signing Whitney Mercilus as a situation pass rusher was a much better mid-season signing than signing OBJ (even if it were for the same money).

It filled a bigger need (assuming MVS comes back) and it takes a lot less to acclimate to a new system being a pass rusher compared to being a WR. I'm sure there are some audibles on defense, but nowhere near the level of what you need to learn on offense.

lots of opining - OBJ would have been a 'decent' signing but i trust in gute.

bigger thing to me is getting a big injection of 69, 23, 55 and a healthy 12/17 - throw in the natural center myers and we have something.  that's a bunch of blue chippers there.

I think there is a bigger chance we see 10 again this weekend than we are wanting to believe...covid is a bitch and 12 could need a full week of practice to get back into it.

@AdamSchefter:  On the same day that the team signed WR Odell Beckham Jr., Rams’ WR Robert Woods tore his ACL at practice Friday, sources tell @diannaESPN and me.

@smartfootball: with or without OBJ, that is a huge blow to the Rams. Woods was extremely valuable, and really did it all for them - routes, catch tough balls, took handoffs, even blocked frequently. Did a ton for them and gave them a lot of versatility
