Albert Breer added that the Rams are moving Woods for a sixth-round draft pick.
It’s a 2023 sixth-rounder going to the Rams for WR Robert Woods. Woods is a really good player but is coming back from a torn ACL, is expensive ($13.5 million in 2022), and turns 30 next month.
That explains the price. https://t.co/CE9jKSdWmJ

“Huge get for the Titans very sparse wide receiver room,” said a podcaster. Noting, “They still need to address the position early in the draft. Woods is liable to be slow to get back up to speed from his injury, similar to Dupree and Lewan last season. They’ll need more than AJB in the meantime.”

“The Rams were never going to trade firepower to the Packers, one of their biggest threats in the conference. I really hope none of you got your hopes up.”
