The Los Angeles Rams are always a team to keep an eye on around the NFL trade deadline.
They recently traded for Tennessee Titans cornerback Roger McCreary, and that likely won’t be their only move ahead of the Nov. 4 cutoff.
Rams head coach Sean McVay was a bit cryptic, but he didn’t rule out additional deals.
“I wouldn’t say no,” McVay said. “It’s not something that we’ve really talked about. I think if certain opportunities arise that you feel like give you a chance to be able to significantly upgrade your football team, but I feel really good about our group and the growth that I still think can be had from us in spite of doing some good things. That’s really in all three phases. It hasn’t been something that we’ve really talked about, but I certainly would never rule that out.”
The Rams have never been afraid to part with draft picks to make big moves.
They know how to find and develop talent from the later rounds of the NFL Draft, and that approach helped them win Super Bowl LVI.
Of course, that’s not to say that they will make another headline move, as there may not be many big names available at this point.
That being said, they aren’t likely to stand pat, either.
With the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks better than anticipated, the Rams need to make sure they keep pace in the NFC West.
While not many people seem to be talking about Los Angeles as a Super Bowl contender, one should know better than to sleep on McVay.
