Bringing back Austin Blythe
This wasn’t viewed as a huge move for the Rams, but it was an important one. Re-signing Blythe to a one-year deal worth $3.9 million was wise by the Rams, keeping around a player who has experience playing guard and center in their scheme.
He’s not the best offensive lineman on the team, but he does bring value thanks to his versatility and experience. And he was pretty darn good in 2018 at guard next to Rob Havenstein and John Sullivan.
With the money he’s making, Blythe should be a starter for the Rams in 2020 – though his position is still to be determined.
