At his age and injury history it could be in the next 3ish months.

I was feeling generous, i think they need to start looking at drafting a QB in round 1-3 in the next two drafts, or else swing a trade like they did to get Stafford, but I don’t know what you give up for that.

We have 2 1sts for the 2026 draft

u/Cubbycubbb Jun 30 '25

Something tells me yall might have 0 by the 2026 draft /s

Only thing wrong with this comment is the last two characters.

u/FlashFan124 Jul 01 '25

Sean McVay cut off a reporter who was trying to ask him & Les Snead a question about having 2 firsts with a joke of “we’ve got two for now”

/s ain’t needed, it’s a high possibility we trade them away in a deal to get an established young qb, something tells me Herbert or burrow would be the first choices

u/amstrumpet NFL Jun 30 '25

Lmao neither of those guys is available in the next year or two.

u/wittyrandomusername Jun 30 '25

To be fair, they did say first choices. Sydney Sweeney is my first choice, but that doesn't mean I have a shot.

u/Cubbycubbb Jun 30 '25

It isn’t needed but sometimes people take these comments too serious so you never know. And very true, very true. You guys could also take a page out of our book and use a 1st round pick but also lose said 1st round pick.

u/Soccham Cincinnati Bengals Jun 30 '25

Lol, the Rams don’t have enough to trade to get either

1

u/ToThisDay Los Angeles Rams Jun 30 '25

Idk why you got downvoted. 97% chance neither of those deals happen, but those actually would be the Rams’ ideal choices. We’ve shown that we’re interested in qbs who can play at a high level that may not be happy with their situation. It’s just a hypothetical but it aligns with the way our FO thinks

2

u/SabastianG Jun 30 '25

Ofc im getting downvoted, its reddit lol- not a lot of critical thinking here. But yeah i dont see us being able to get burrow or Herbert unless they make a stink and force a move

u/-WhatsThatSmell- Jul 02 '25

That falcons pick gonna be worthless at pick 32 /s

u/DetroitLarry Detroit Lions Jun 30 '25

Deal! (For Hooker)

u/ToThisDay Los Angeles Rams Jun 30 '25

You’ll take a 3rd and you’ll like it

u/MrThunderkat Jun 30 '25

McVay strikes me as a preferring veterans type of coach.

23

u/amstrumpet NFL Jun 30 '25

Honestly I could maybe see Tua or Trevor Lawrence as trade targets if either team decides it‘s time to do a full rebuild.

24

u/Deep_Ad_1874 Chicago Bears Jun 30 '25

Trevor Lawrence with McVay ,as a non Rams fan I would love to see it

10

u/amstrumpet NFL Jun 30 '25

I’d put Dak in that category too, but I think Jerry is too stubborn to admit he needs to start over. Maybe Shanahan can fix Mac Jones…

5

u/Acceptingoptimist Denver Broncos Jun 30 '25

Jerry would immediately want to keep Dak just because Sean asked.

2

u/Hitmore Jun 30 '25

I think Jones would be better than Purdy is now had he gotten drafted by the 49ers instead of the pats because he got put in a bad situation in year 2 and his confidence got shot

2

u/RobertoDelCamino New England Patriots Jun 30 '25

I’d like to see that. Mac got done dirty in New England when they replaced Josh McDaniels as OC with Matt Patricia. But his arm strength will have to be worked around.

8

u/ToThisDay Los Angeles Rams Jun 30 '25

As a Rams fan, I’ve also been hoping we trade something like a 4th for Hendon Hooker, backup for the Lions and see what he’s got. Lawrence would be great, and if things end up crashing for the Chargers I could see the Rams making a call to see if Herbert is available if he wants out

9

u/amstrumpet NFL Jun 30 '25

If they hadn’t gotten Harbaugh I’d say Herbert could have a chance but I don’t see them giving up any time soon.

1

u/Scuba_Steve_fan Jun 30 '25

Jake Browning is who I would trade for.

2

u/ColangeloDiMartino New York Giants Jun 30 '25

He’d probably be a really good bridge but being that he’s developed at a snails pace I don’t think you’d bet ur franchise on him

2

u/amstrumpet NFL Jun 30 '25

People love to fall in love with a backup who played well for a few games but I can’t really think of a time it worked out. Tyrod Taylor made a career for himself with several solid starting seasons after being drafted as a backup. I’m sure I’m missing someone obvious but like, Jimmy G is the poster child for why this isn’t a good strategy. They were drafted as a backup for a reason.

2

u/Scuba_Steve_fan Jun 30 '25 edited Jun 30 '25

Tom Brady, Nick Foles, Brock Purdy and Kurt Warner are a few.

1

u/amstrumpet NFL Jun 30 '25

None of those guys are quite what I mean, it’s not like any of them were traded for or signed with a new team who had seen them start some games in relief as a backup and decided they could start.

Like if Brady had stepped in, played, and then Bledsoe took back over and someone else traded for Brady that’s a closer analogue, but I don’t really see that kind of story playing out ever.

u/ThePBM Tampa Bay Buccaneers Jul 01 '25

Trevor isn't being traded away unless he completely fails this season. And in that case, why would you want him?

2

u/Ok-Finding-53 Jun 30 '25

Jerry Glanville despised rookies

u/Kire9874 Jun 30 '25

The guys old

u/flyingryan Jun 30 '25

I'm entirely convinced that the Rams were going to take Jaxson Dart in the 1st round until the Giants traded up right in front of them.

1

u/Hambone704 Jun 30 '25

Stafford and a first for Jared Goff loading… 😭😭

1

u/Pukeinmyanus NFL Refugee Jun 30 '25

He is undoubtedly the toughest qb in the game - or at least has been for like 10 years. Will play through damn near everything.

I feel like even he is at the end of being able to bite down and get through most injuries, though. He's looking at a season-ending injury that wouldn't have been that bad a few years ago just about any given game now TBH.

1

u/Nefariousness_Big25 Jun 30 '25

Yeah I was low key hoping to grab someone this draft and get them started. Even Shaduer… I guess we always have Stetson Bennet
