Bulger is a decent QB. No doubt about it. But at 31 and being a few years away from his better seasons (regardless of blame) he would command a midround draft pick at best. No one is going to give up a high pick and then have to deal with his contract for a guy that was good but not great and has health questions.
The one with the trade value is Stephen Jackson. You could get a high draft pick and or player(s) for a stud like Jackson that is still in his prime.

i think you're right, pants as well. deal what they can to add what they need-but they need far more than they can get for one RB. basically the rams need to face facts-they aren't going to do anything this year-and maybe not next year, so they need to plan for the next few years. it's why i said the gm merited a long look as well, as it's generally the gm who takes care of personnel/draft/trading, etc-not the coach. seems like he was doing everything but paying attention to what holes to fill, etc. and why they ate up a lot of their salary cap for bulger i don't know.
rams were good not that long ago, how they ended up in this spot i don't know...but then, i don't pay much attention to the rams!
