Rams Plan Trades for Stafford, Kupp Amid Steelers Interest

The Los Angeles Rams are considering trading both quarterback Matthew Stafford and wide receiver Cooper Kupp, with the Pittsburgh Steelers emerging as a potential destination for both players. While ESPN insiders suggest that Stafford is likely to remain in L.A. due to his recent contract extension, trade proposals involving Stafford and the Rams' first-round pick have surfaced, sparking interest from teams like the Steelers. Kupp, an All-Pro receiver, has become more expendable due to injuries and the rise of Puka Nacua, leading to speculation about his trade value, which might start as low as a day three pick. The Steelers have been actively pursuing Kupp and could benefit from his experience, although competition from teams like the Ravens and Chargers complicates the situation. With the Rams looking to gather draft capital and rebuild, the upcoming NFL Combine and free agency period will be crucial for these potential trades. How the quarterback situation unfolds in Pittsburgh may significantly influence their ability to secure a deal for Kupp or Stafford.
