traded wide receiver Van Jefferson on Tuesday, and while the move was not totally surprising given the team’s depth at the position, what the Rams got back in compensation has some fans scratching their heads.
Overall fans graded the trade as C, which makes sense to me, as it was a player rumored to be on the trade block, so it wasn’t a particularly shocking move. However, due to it only being a swap a late round 2025 draft picks, it may have caused some fans to grade the trade lower overall.

Personally I was hoping for maybe a little bit more for Jefferson based on his playing experience and his flashes of ability to stretch the field, but the 2025 swap of picks was not far off from what I expected.
