First we know the Rams will be looking to trade Cooper Kupp. He is definitely not any long-term solution (32) and has big injury concerns, with 12, 12, and 9 games played in the last three seasons. But, in spite of that, when he plays he is still very effective. 800+ yards and 6TD in 9 games in 2022, 700+ yards and 5TD in 12 games in 2023; 700+ yards and 6TD last season.(For some frame of reference, our leading WR this year was Jayden Reed with ~850 yards and 6TD in 17 games / 10 "starts") I could see a case for it but I guess it would really depend on the numbers. I wouldn't want to give up much there.  A second option that I have heard floated about a lot, but nothing confirmed, is the idea that Seattle would be willing to move DK Metcalf to free up cap space. This is where perhaps moving a guy like Doubs could be intriguing. As has been discussed we really can't realistically expect to keep all our current guys around; on top of that we need to improve the WR room and it does make some sense to move a guy if he has trade value (in such a way that improves you) rather than losing them for free. I have seen trade valuations all over the place on this one, some as high as expecting a 1st (I don't think that is realistic), some saying a 2nd-rd pick straight up, or others have proposed a player plus a pick, like Doubs and a 3/4 or something like that. Metcalf will command a good salary but he'd certainly be a more "proven" guy than anyone in our current room. 1000+ yards in 3/6 seasons...and 900+ in the other 3/6. And 7, 10, 12, 6, 8, 5 TD.... BUT, all that said, maybe reading too much into it, but he (Metcalf) did recently say that "Massachusetts isn't a desirable place in my opinion. Great organization though." Maybe that is a polite way of just saying he's not interested in New England, but maybe he is wanting to move to a bigger media market or something too. I think it's not unreasonable to say that for a lot of players Green Bay is not a super attractive location to live either, regardless of organization (I don't share that opinion, lol, but i get it)</blockquote>
