NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo has reported that the Los Angeles Rams have acquired receiver Brandin Cooks and a fourth-round pick in a trade with the New England Patriots, The Rams then send their first-round pick (23rd) and a sixth-round pick to the Patriots. Whoa, Les Snead ain’t messing around.
This is a great insight into the whole idea that the Rams have a three-year window where they still have affordable rookie contracts with their star players like QB Jared Goff and RB Todd Gurley II.
