Hey everyone, it's Boomer and Gio, and if you're into New York sports or you want straight talk about what's really going on in the sports world, Boomer and Geo is your show. We're covering it all. Yankees wins, Giants drama, national headlines, and whatever chaos the day brings on the field and all. No filler, no filters, just real conversation. And believe me, plenty of laughs every weekday morning. We don't hold back and we don't waste your time.

We get to what actually matters.

That's Boomer and Gio, and you can listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your pods. All right, we'll do a little football. Then we get back to our baseball, I promise. But let's get into the trades yesterday with Albert. Albert, welcome. How are you?

I'm good. How you do, Mike? All right. Let's do the Jalen Ramsey deal. Listen, they got the Malcon 10 out. They got a lot for them. Now,

RAM picks might not be that higher picks, but they got two ones and a four, which is a heck of a heck of a deal from that standpoint. Give me what went down. Well, I think it's part of the changing climate in the NFL, where we're seeing more stars move and have moved for big returns. We saw with Odell, we saw Laramie Kuntall, we saw it with Brandon Cook twice. You know, more and more now. We're seeing teams get out in front of these where, you know, they don't think they're going to be able to re-sign the player or they may not want to resign the player. And so they decide to move on early. And obviously, Gail and Ramsey fourth, the issue here. And, you know, you give the Jaguar's credit. They set the price. They said it's going to cost two ones and they got their price. And so, you know, I think this sort of solves a bad

situation that they were in. And they get great return for a really, really good player. For the

Rams, you know, as much as anything else, this is the way they've done business. You know,

you look at the way they've dealt business. You know, you look at the way they've, they've dealt

their first round picks away. Some of the players they brought in, Cooks was one of them, they gave

him a one for him. They moved a huge haul to go and get carried golf in 2016. And so it's left

them without, you know, first round picks. They're going to go five years without a first round pick, but the flip side is they've

got, you know, a bunch of guys who are in their mid-20s who should be productive for them

for years to come.

And so, you know, I think it's for the Rams, it's just, you know, kind of adding another

piece to a core that already includes Jared Gough and Brandon Cooks and Todd Gurley and Aaron Donald. Yeah, I think the problem with the Rams is I don't think their quarterback's good enough. I think it's a big problem. Yeah. I think he's a big, I think they over, they overestimated their quarterback. He came apart in the Super Bowl. He has not played well this year. I do not like what I see from him,

and I think he, you know, Gurley is falling apart, which running backs do, as we know.

Right. But I just don't love the quarterback. I just don't think he's a special quarterback.

I don't even think he's a franchise quarterback. Well, the issue there, too, Mike, is what's around

him right now. To me, that's a little problematic in that you've got a left tackle on Andrew Whitworth, who might be in his last year. If not, he's probably not got more than a year past that. Right, who they got a lot out of. They got a lot out of him. The Giants should assign them, and they didn't, and the Rams hit a home run, but he's finally done.

He's finally done.

Yeah, and so you lose him. You already lost Roger Saffold, the starting guard, and you're starting center, John Sullivan, in free agency last year. You haven't been able to really adequately replace those guys. So the line's a problem, and then, you know, you've got the condition of Gurley. And I would, you know,

I argue that Todd Gurley was a huge part of Jared Goff's success, being able to do everything
