The Rams are spending $74M so they can have Jared Goff & not have Todd Gurley & Brandin Cooks on their roster.

They're eating $38M in dead cap between Gurley ($20.2M) & Cooks ($17.8M).

And they are spending a $36M cap hit on Goff (#1 most in NFL).
The Rams will attempt to compete in 2020 while spending approximately $45M of the $198M cap on players no longer on their team.

That's 23% of the Rams 2020 cap being spent on non-Rams.
Spring 2018: Rams signed Todd Gurley & Brandin Cooks to mega deals w combined $94M g'teed

Those 2 players combined for 26 TDs (47% of team total) & 3,035 yards (38% of team total) & the 2018 Rams made the Super Bowl.

Spring 2020: Rams dumped both players & ate ~$40M in dead cap
