Many Rams rumors include which players will stay in LA and which will be released.
Lately many Rams rumors include which players will be released from LA. There has been multiple changes for the Rams this off-season. There are plenty more still to come. The Rams cleared most of house when adding a new coaching staff.
With these changes they are hoping the players buy into the new schemes therefore they can start winning games. They are looking for their first winning season in while. In order to win everyone has to be on the same page.
If not, those players may be let go. In this article I will give you my take on 3 possible Rams LA might lose in the off-season.

Trumaine Johnson
Trumaine Johnson is a big story of Rams rumors in this off-season. Also, he is one of, if not the biggest players the Rams could lose in free agency. Although the team had a losing season he made an impact on defense.
The few games he was out were noticeable. That is how much of a difference he makes.

Also, he does well defending the opponents top receivers and is a great pass defender. Johnson covers other receivers well downfield.
He can keep up with anyone as he is speedy and is quick when it comes to making a play on the ball. LA needs to find a way to keep him in order to have a stout secondary.

Kenny Britt
Kenny Britt their top receiver they can lose in free agency also. Britt was the go to guy on key 3rd down plays and in the red zone. He even had 1,000 receiving yards this season. LA could lose him to free agency if they don’t decide to trade him for another player.

Also, he hauled in 68 receptions and 5 of them were touchdowns. The Rams need another physical receiver similar to Britt. They also need a receiver who can make plays downfield and score touchdowns for the team.
LA may be better off signing another free agent receiver across from Britt instead of letting him go.

Greg Robinson
The Rams are doing their best to keep Greg Robinson. If things don’t work out he could be on his way out. Recently he has troubled staying healthy and even doing his job correctly. He is a big part of the Rams offense. Losing him would make a big impact.

If a playoff contending team makes him an offer, don’t be surprised if he leaves the city of bright lights. Robinson could even leave during the season if he requests a trade. Lastly the Rams probably have a lot of work to do if they want him sticking around.
Without him protecting the quarterback’s blindside, how is Goff going to make plays?

Closing Thoughts
These 3 players are all top targets for trades or in free agency. They are a few of the Rams best players.
There is a possibility LA can lose all of them or just one. Maybe they will be able to sign all of them back. This may be a dilemma as they all may want a lot money. However there is ways to keep all of them or trade them to avoid the financial situation.
Lastly all we can do is wait to see what happens next with these Rams Rumors.
