49ers’ Richard Sherman says Rams ‘gave up a lot’ for Jalen Ramsey and better get the Brinks truck ready

The NFC West news of the week came courtesy of the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Los Angeles Rams. Hot off an embarrassing 20-7 home loss to the San Francisco 49ers, where the Niner Faithful took over the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, the Rams sent several draft picks, including two first-rounders, to the Jaguars in exchange for disgruntled star cornerback Jalen Ramsey.

While Ramsey is a very talented player, the initial thoughts by the media are that the deal probably wasn't enough for now 3-3 Los Angeles to catch up to 5-0 San Francisco or even the 5-1 Seattle Seahawks within the division. Most everyone would agree that the move was costly for the Rams, especially when you consider that Ramsey is looking for a contract extension.

Do you remember this statement from Ramsey earlier this year?


Richard Sherman was asked on Thursday to share his thoughts on the trade, and he sounded pretty happy for his fellow cornerback because of how he landed with Los Angeles is going to benefit him in the long run.

"It seemed like they gave up a lot for him," Sherman told reporters, "and it's going to be great for him because he has a lot of leverage, and I wish they would try to not pay him at this point. Give up two first-rounders and like, 'Oh, and we're going to play hardball in these negotiations.'

"Yeah, back up the Brinks truck, and then call him when you're done."

The 49ers next face the Rams during Week 16.

It's been less than one week since the free agency rumors started swirling. The San Francisco 49ers have been busy, from restructuring contracts to seeing some of their own sign elsewhere to bringing aboard new players. They even pulled off a trade. But have they improved their roster this first week of NFL free agency? Let's take a look at which additions and returning players help, and which losses hurt.

Three Key Defensive Free Agents to Make the 49ers Better in 2024

By Wayne P. Brown

Although the defense finished as one of the top defenses in 2023 under Steve Wilks, the San Francisco 49ers struggled in a few areas, like stopping the run, finishing the pass rush with sacks, and surrendering explosive plays. In this editorial, we will look to find three defensive players to keep the 49ers defense among the elite. The 49ers have 22 players scheduled to become free agents, 12 being defensive players. The team must address the edge, interior, and cornerback positions. Improving these three areas will keep the 49ers on top. Three defensive ends—Chase Young, Randy Gregory, and Clelin Ferrell—are set to become free agents. Per Pro Football Focus (PFF), the trio totaled 74 pressures (11 sacks, 17 hits, and 46 hurries).
