REPORT: Los Angeles Rams soured on DT Ndamukong Suh, wanted DE Jerry Hughes over EDGE Dante Fowler

In a piece at ProFootballTalk yesterday, Mike Florio reported the Los Angeles Rams’ first choice of defensive end at the trade deadline after souring on DT Ndamukong Suh was actually DE Jerry Hughes of the Buffalo Bills not OLB Dante Fowler Jr from the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The trade for Fowler was a bit of a desperation move for the Rams who lacked any semblance of a pass rush from the edge. Hughes — who has 6.5 sacks on the season — is simply a much better player.
