The Los Angeles Rams are no strangers to high-stakes moves, but with a 1-4 record in 2024, they’re now teetering on the edge of a rebuild. As trade rumors swirl, Colin Cowherd and other analysts are questioning whether it’s time for the Rams to shift from buyers to sellers. Here’s why trading big names like Tre’Davious White and even quarterback Matthew Stafford could be on the table.
Tre’Davious White: Since joining the Rams, White hasn’t lived up to his All-Pro reputation, allowing four touchdowns and struggling in coverage. If a cornerback-needy team like the Baltimore Ravens is willing to part with even a late-round pick, the Rams should strongly consider a deal to create cap space and clear the roster for younger talent.
Matthew Stafford: The Rams’ long-time face of the franchise has been left to carry a diminished roster. While trading him mid-season might sound extreme, a team like the Miami Dolphins, with a first-round pick on the table, could be enough to tempt LA. Stafford’s departure might push the Rams into a rough season but could open the door for a high 2025 draft pick, potentially their next franchise QB.
With a tough schedule ahead and the odds stacked against them, the Rams have decisions to make. Do they hold onto key players and hope for a turnaround, or start looking toward the future? As the trade deadline nears, fans and analysts alike are waiting to see if the Rams will make a game-changing move.
