So if the Rams tag Jackson and we tag Smith, then we can get Smith dealt for a mid 2nd and flip that mid 2nd to the Rams for Jackson while getting Jackson extended at figures that are close to what Smith would extend at -- dammit, I think I'd just do it and call it a day.
If not, I'm calling the Dolphins about Armstead.
Stanley's availability is just so spotty. Not the upshot to that is that it will likely be priced into his value on the market AND, while we seemingly have nothing we can truly count on to start, we do have some options in Morris and even Kingsley that might not be catastrophic if he misses 2-3 games here and there.
I mean I don't think you can reasonably expect more than 12 games out of Stanley at this point. The injury history is just so damn loud. And he's getting older.

Ronnie Stanley has only played 48 games the last 5 seasons. He’s missed 40% of the games.
There’s no way you could convince me that he’s worth acquiring unless it’s for a smaller contract that is incentivized heavily upon him staying healthy. Even then it’s not appealing.
I’d rather bring Humphries back at a small contract then sign Stanley.
