Commodes fans seem to like him and think he was underpaid.

Depends on source. PFR has him pretty low, PFF higher and SIS kind of in between ... different eyes see different total of missed tackles...

the age of information, I guess ... who do you trust the most?

Sounds like tackling in space was a priority there doesn't it. Excellent.

Guessing it will be as well for whoever they take at corner or safety in the draft.

Will be interesting if Rams make changes to how the play safeties ... Washington did it differently. I'd expect him to take Fuller's place ... but exactly how remains to be seen.

When the were in 3rd and long Curl played middle linebacker ... two years ago he was the "Star"

very versatile football player --- S, LB, slot ... fits the physical profile for Rams and played a role kind of what John Johnson III was in 2020,

Jim, if everything remains the same as it is now. Who do you think takes the other starting spot at safety? Does Lake move back or stay in the Star role. Will everyone be somewhat interchangeable?
 
Love this signing.

Couple of things now evident from this FA period for me;

1) the decision of not going for a big splash (i.e. Burns or Danielle Hunter) allows you to fill out the roster with multiple "mid tier" guys at reasonable price points. Would you want x1 Hunter or x1 Curl/Jackson/Williams/Parkinson?

2) they've targeted ascending players and they've targeted grit. Clear strategy here

3) covering off the needs of iOL, S, CB somewhat and TE gives them even more flexibility at 19. Dare I say enough flexibility to go up and get someone if they want to?

Tldr - love this shit.

I wonder why you sign a young talent like him with only a 2 year deal?

I'm guessing the short duration and the low AAV go hand-in-hand.

Rams insisted on signing him at a low cap number.

Curl insisted on a short deal because he knows his value will explode after playing for a contending team.

Playing on a shit Commodes team reduced Curl's leverage. Hence, the two sides compromised on a short 2 year deal at a bargain price. Rams get a solid vet safety for two Super Bowl runs, then Curl can look to get a huge payday in 2026.

Wow this is awesome. I expected him to get more but the safety market is really down. Im hoping he could be an elite safety for the Rams for the next 6-8 years.
