Rams reportedly offered the Raiders firs

The already have one of the league's best rosters, but if we're going to be finicky, we can call their outside linebacker group a liability heading into the season. The Rams appear to understand that, C.J. Miles Jersey because it turns out they were very serious about acquiring before the sent him to Chicago We already knew the Rams, , were . Now, we know what they offered for him. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Rams offered first and third-round picks to the Raiders in exchange for one year of Mack. Rams could have been facing former Raiders Khalil Mack tonight; instead, after they Paul Watson Jersey signed Aaron Donald, they offered Oakland 1st- and 3rd-round picks, which Raiders rejected.Rams would have paid Mack, then traded him after this season because they couldn't afford him in 2019. Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) A defensive front featuring (the best defensive player in football), (one of the best defensive tackles in football), and Khalil Mack (arguably the best edge rusher in football) would've been borderline unstoppable and it would've made their already good secondary, which includes the likes of , , and , even better.

Plus, the Raiders now don't have to face Mack on Monday night in their season opener, which would've given him a chance to destroy Terence Davis Jersey his former team the way hein his Bears debut. That sounds like a scenario the Raiders probably wanted to avoid.
