Rams are getting paid.

Good news bad news time. First the good news. The Redskins are officially out of the Peyton Manning hunt. The bad news? It's because they've traded for the Rams 2nd overall pick in the draft. They must think RG3 is the guy because they are giving up a boatload for him. The Rams will receive the Redskins 1st round pick for the next 3 years as well as this years 2nd rounder. The Rams will now be picking 6th and most likely will still have one of their top choices available. In my opinion, the Rams made out like bandits and have made a move that will help to make them competitive in the NFC West. Doesn't look the NFC West is going to be such a terrible division any more. Also, a little off topic, ESPN is reporting the Jets are also out of the Manning sweepstakes. Thoughts?
