The Season with Peter Schrager: Rams GM Les Snead on Aaron Donald's Legacy

Subscribe to the show - link.chtbl.com...
Peter breaks down the Justin Fields trade, why Pittsburgh GM Omar Khan pulled off quite a savvy maneuver, and what it means for Chicago. Peter also discusses why saying goodbye to Saquon Barkley, as rough as it may seem, ended with an elite 25-year-old pass rusher- and why that’s a more than acceptable tradeoff if you’re NYG. Then, Rams GM Les Snead joins on extremely short notice to go 45 minutes on the career of Aaron Donald. Snead drafted Donald and is the only GM he ever played for. Snead’s stories are rich and words like “rare”, “once in a lifetime”, and “alien” are used. A beautiful tribute to one of the greatest to ever do it.

Donald is my GOAT!!! I’ll miss watching him every Sunday 😢 go rams !!

[@carlosmeza6439]

GOAT period look at his numbers then multiply that times 10 cause he’s a dlineman those are DE numbers numerous double and triple teams and imagine if he okayed 20 years not 10 dude threw players in the air unbelievable strength and speed.

[@soulsideout3732]

As a HUGE Matthew Stafford fan, I was ecstatic to see him come to the Rams. I have truly enjoyed rooting for this entire team. I am saddened to see AD retire…….but, I do believe that the Rams staff did know before us, and already had a plan in place. I believe in our players, and I believe in Snead and Mcvay. I think the Rams have something in the works and they will be okay…..Go Rams!!!!

[@clarkbales7065]

"They is no replacing Arron Donald" - another great quote about the GOAT from Les.....

[@bradleybelchamber4487]

Wonderful interview. So much appreciation expressed and in so many ways. Loved it. Although we may be sad to see AD retire, look at all the smiles he elicits. Truly, an exemplary football player's legacy. One of one. I see you, AD!

[@payotimeRamsYT]

Stoked for this episode!!!

[@BoBowen-sv9mf]

Fantastic match for an interview. Epic stories. Whew!

[@CombatSportsTalkLosAngeles]

AD99 forever a Ram, Super Bowl Champion and HOF 🤙🏽

[@elitster]

Aaron Donald, willing to do the things others weren’t. Go Rams!

[@lightlysalted9712]

Les please tell us AD will be back if we make a playoff run . Let him take a rest, come back for the ring

[@shavedwookie699]

Like Eric Weddle

[@andrewsilva7542]

I'm praying for this... hoping he gets the itch to play and we look legit next year and if he is the extra piece to take us home, he comes back for the miracle finish!

[@tyronethompson3947]

Go Rams!!!

[@johnnyboyjohns2930]

Thank you Aaron Donald 😤💪🏉🏆👑 Congratulations on your retirement, have a great time with your family, and God bless 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@jesusbarranco8301]

2 of my sports teams lost goats this year oh well 😂😂

[@BobFredrickson-x3x]

Les pick Byron Murphy DL and get a edge rusher and CB

[@billyhassett2728]

Exactly AD retires when he wants. We’ll MISS him. Les we have a bundle of picks this yr let’s find another Kobie Turner, Byron Young and Puca! AD knows his body as did Barry Sanders. They went out on their terms.

[@SammiieBoii]

Aaron Donald the GOAT

[@blessembreaks]

LA teams been taking hits. My Chargers traded Allen, u guys had arguably the greatest defensive player to play the game retire. Sad days here in LA

[@carlosmeza6439]

I seen his size as an advantage cause he could use inside leverage and unbelievable strength than his work he would’ve been deadly in judo.

[@erickalc1597]

Donald coming back. You’ll see.

[@kevinsupreme2514]

LES GET XAVIER WORTHY!!!🙏🏿

[@freddavis1550]

Draft Laiatu Latu!!!!!!

[@AlvinJunior-mx4ue]

#teambran

[@Ramsowndaworld]

Les is getting texts and losing his train of thought the whole time. Would be worried if he wasn’t wheeling and dealing!!

[@rawteeb]

Les Snead savvy gm that will let his team go down by not wanting to pay Pennies to any kicker for years now

[@bh7132]

Hindsight haters are hilarious

[@rawteeb]

@@bh7132meta

[@rawteeb]

@@bh7132 watching kickers miss 45 yarders for 2 years in a row is hindsight true.

[@andrewsilva7542]

more astounding that there is a bad kicker in the NFL. When its the top 30ish in the country. Makes sense why wouldn't want to use cap to pay a kicker. We didn't lose in the playoffs because of it.

[@rawteeb]

@@andrewsilva7542 lost multiple games in back to back seasons because of it and it changes how they play the whole game having to go for it on 4th downs because we can’t trust the guy kicking. Kickers are not expensive.

[@CertifiedSupplyChainPro]

The padawan has surpassed the master (Brad Holmes 🐐 > les snead)

[@johnnyboyjohns2930]

😤🤡👊

[@Docrine682]

Why does this violent boring slow sport still exist?🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

[@thekingbarrelmaker7642]

Why do you still exist?

[@BuckeyesFan487]

Probably a soccer fan

[@jayrocky9067]

Loser attitude

[@nimishparmar5207]

Nobody's forcing you to watch this sport. Go back to watching your soccer match.

[@shindanu]

Because I watch it.
