Quote from: T200 on April 28, 2025, 08:59:50 AMI am a firm believer in the adage of not putting all of the eggs in one basket. Any successful organization doesn't have just one plan, especially when there are uncontrollable factors that can and will have a bearing on that plan. Having contingency/backup/alternate plans increases the chances of success.

Yes, luck (good and bad) is certainly a factor that cannot be planned for but can be accounted for in case things fall a certain way. I can't help but think that, if the rumors about the Rams wanting Dart are true, Schoen was already talking to Houston, considering how fast the trade was announced.

Todd McShay who got more claims about the draft right than he did wrong, said it was all but certain the Rams wanted Dart.

Neither are long term commitments so I would be absolutely fine with a two year deal for either Cooper or Allen. Sportract has Cooper as a 2 year 28Mill deal and Allen as a 2 year 22.2 million dollar deal. You can structure year 1 to be a hit of around 8 million. And cap is scheduled to go up 10% next year with Wilsons 10Mill coming off

There no way on planet earth I'm paying 14 million or 11 million a year for those guys. That's absolutely ridiculous.
