Los Angeles Rams

The Los Angeles Rams went from worst to first in the NFC West last season, thanks largely to the emergence of a lot of talented pieces on offense that finally broke through.

While the hiring of Sean McVay gets the majority of the headlines, the hiring of Wade Phillips as defensive coordinator can’t be understated for this Rams team, and that would be the primary reason I’d look to the Rams as a fit for Talib in a trade.

The Rams could be losing Trumaine Johnson to free agency this offseason, but even if they don’t I think acquiring Talib would be a nice use of their available cap space. This is a team that has very few needs overall, but adding a shut down cornerback like Talib for a couple of years would be great for them in this championship window.
