Hurts to see a guy we love to watch leave but we're a better team than we were before, especially once we resign OBJ. They are different WR, they have different skills, you can't compare them.

That is pathetically low value Yeah, this is something that our front office is so pathetic at. There's a difference between doing right by a player and gifting him away. The Lions did right by listening to Stafford that the Rams were his preferred destination. They still got market value for him in the deal. How the Rams settled on a late pick in next year's draft will be something I never understand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AR is a better contested catch guy and Woods is a better blocker, but aside of that, they actually have a lot of traits in common. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freebirdsrams Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Woods will definitely be missed as a leader in the locker room and Robinson won't be able to fill that role. I do think they should have received more for him but it is all about the cap and who else they are targeting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m a firm believer they could have gotten more and were offered more by other teams but I think they wanted to do whats right for him. Definitely will be missed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well i don't know much about Robinson but for me he's like a WR that you put on one side, against the best corner, and you told him to beat the guy on a middle/ deep route and just throw a ball at him and let him do the work. But maybe i'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BStanRamFan Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 From a warm and fuzzy standpoint, this sucks. He was a great leader and lockerroom guy. Helped usher in the rebuild with Whitworth. But this needed to be done. He was getting shopped before last year. He'll be 30 in April and coming off a major knee injury. I read the Rams could have gotten a little bit better compensation, but decided to let Woods choose his landing spot out of respect. I expected a 5th. Turns out it's a 6th, but this is part of the business sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really does everything well but hasn't had a QB who could consistently get him the ball. Also, this gives Stafford a Calvin/Marvin Jones type of jump ball receiver that he's succeeded with in the past. OBJ is good at jump balls too, but Robinson is elite at that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we can only wish he will build chemistry with Stafford in the offseason. Also, i think we have to see how Skowrownek will developp this offseason. Right now he's a poor man Kupp/Woods but with few improvement on catch and blocking, we might see him a little bit more early next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m glad he will be back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
