The Los Angeles Rams are prepared to make some changes to their roster this offseason.
After already releasing linebacker Bobby Wagner, the Rams seem poised to make a few more big moves.
One player we know that is available for trade is cornerback Jalen Ramsey.
But, there is another surprising player that the Rams would reportedly love to trade.
That is quarterback Matthew Stafford.
According to Michael Lombardi, the Rams have been calling teams looking to trade Stafford.

But, the problem with trading Stafford is that he is coming off a serious injury.
So many teams are probably wary of acquiring a 35-year-old quarterback coming off a neck injury.
Also, Stafford is set to make $57 million in guarantees when the new league year begins.
No team is going to want an injured Stafford making that much money.
So, it will be interesting to see what the Rams do and if they can make a move.
Another problem with the Rams is that they have almost no draft capital.
So, trading away Ramsey and Stafford could give them a bundle of draft picks.
LA went all-in to win the Super Bowl in 2021, and it worked.
But, now they are starting to see some of the fallout from the moves they made.
If there is a quarterback-needy team who thinks Stafford can still play, it might be worth taking the chance.
But, to expect him to stay healthy at this point in his career would be foolish.
