Los Angeles Rams: Possible replacements for Sammy Watkins

Paul Richardson

Instead of going the route of a grizzled veteran, the Los Angeles Rams can continue to pursue the youth movement and bring in another young receiver around Jared Goff. This time, it can be 25-year-old Seattle Seahawk Paul Richardson.

The writing is on the wall for a Seahawks downfall in the coming seasons. The Legion of Boom is not what is used to be and Russell Wilson can only carry the team so much behind a bad offensive line. Running the ball is not a strong suit for the Seahawks behind that offensive line, either.

Seattle is not a bad team, they simply are not the same dynasty in the making that they were five years ago. Richardson, who is entering his first free agent class, may realize this and hop ship to the new face of the NFC West; the young, explosive, Los Angeles Rams.

Richardson enjoyed a breakout season last year after not doing much his first three years in the league. He caught 44 receptions for 703 yards and six touchdowns. Richardson would be perfect on the Rams; he will not take the spotlight from anyone and will only bolster the deep receiving core.

Plus, Richardson will only be better with Goff slinging the ball and multiple other targets that the defense has to keep an eye on. With his career in mind, LA may be the best destination for the young receiver.
