I'll be absolutely gobsmacked if we do that. I'd love it and think we need an interior Olineman, like LAST year......I'm convinced that McSnead only like tiny WR's in the 2nd and 3rd rounds.... (no blue font)

It's the Rams... I can't expect anything, lol.
But if it was *me*? It would be a corner or IOL. Rochell's development, which they would know best, would drive this pick. If they feel he's going to be a legitimate starter next season? I'd go IOL in the 3rd and CB in the 4th.

I'm betting on two more significant additions, from OLB/Edge, CB, MLB or OL.

Then it will just be filler and the draft. That is what I am thinking at least.

Time to give the hamsters a rest.

This has been the hardest offseason since we lost Lauranitis and Long all in one offseason.

Nah not for me. For me it was Ike, that’s when the GSOT book finally closed for good. It was like waking up from a great dream that you knew was over but you wanted to go back to sleep and recapture, but you knew you couldn’t.

I was not a big JL fan. He had his warts. I did like Chris long.

My wife told me that in some states where they tried to do away with DST in the past, there was a higher incidence of children being hit by cars near their bus stops.

I guess the title mislead me. If you search on YouTube it's a thing in Sweden. Curry and who knows what else, even pineapple. I chose the video for it's brevity.

Stoudt would be a great pick. But would the Rams use a pick on a punter or sign one as an UDFA?

Click to expand...

He’s a guy that touches the ball a lot, as punter and holder. A good punter is the occasional difference maker. That’s worth a pick, to ensure you get the right guy - if you need to.

@Psycho_X Meyer is all garbage all the time. I never liked the guy and hope he never coaches again. I’m shocked no player did the Latrell Sprewell get to know you choke on him.

These college coaches get to a point where they feel invincible. They are given way to much importance in their school, communities and programs (IMO).

Click to expand...

What's more disturbing is that he felt emboldened to treat vulnerable 18 year olds that way.

These kids feel enormous pressure and likely haven't ever held a job where you'd learn how to set boundaries (retail/fast food especially is a GREAT place to learn how to set boundaries and be willing to make changes... there are umpteen other colleges just like there are umpteen other retail/fast food establishments). With these kids who likely have been solely focused on their sport (and increasingly just the one sport) including going to camps, seminars and having off-season coaches, etc... they're looking at these college coaches not just as bosses, but surrogate family.

to breach that trust and simply abuse the people around him... he's trash.

TL;dr It's worse that he's been treating college kids like this because they're not in a position to defend themselves and don't have a union where a player can take a grievance. They either take it or put their college career in danger...

Way too high of a price to pay for a QB that still has questions about his availability.

Thanks Riverumbbq The kid is a baller.
We always got spots for Baller's. saved our st's and hopefully
he will continue to develop as a WR. He could be the depth
we didn't have in the SB.

Pittsburgh?

Click to expand...

I see Pittsburgh and Baltimore as having similarly good defenses. If both are healthy, in the short term I pick Lamar’s crazy athleticism over Mitch’s arm.

But, if Trubiskey plays his best it should be close. The Steelers are supposedly enamored with Willis in the draft, if true then they likely don’t see Trubiskey as the answer.

Well I guess being an SC fan I know the difference of a FS that was brought up under an ex-coach with The Rams.I don’t think he is as good of a coach as Carroll.
I also like Carroll trusting Wilson in that Int. I would have went in the corner of the end zone though.
A freak Int that cost the Hags the game.

A trend ? I don’t know ??

Sammy Watkins was another they missed & signing Robert Woods.
Mcvay messed up on that RB from Dallas & that Wade Phillips CB from Denver.He actually played well after awhile & got hurt.That would have helped in the playoffs against Atlanta.

The Rams offseason, to this point, shows that the cap situation wasn't an obstacle to accomplishing their goals. Even with the Miller loss.. that was about a 3rd year guaranteed... the Rams just didn't see that as wise.
The first year structure on all the new deals are VERY team friendly and take advantage of the expected coming jump in the cap, as many of us predicted/hoped.
I just hope they still want to be aggressive for an edge and corner.

Click to expand...

Exactly. It was honestly just lazy reporting and wishful thinking by haters saying the Rams had cap problems coming into this offseason. Those of us who have been paying attention knew that just a few adjustments, and some tough decisions moving on from some guys would result in us being in GREAT shape.

BonifayRam said:

Appears like Arnold Ebiketie is a 34 D typical tweener much like Og Okoronkwo but Og was even smaller. Since more than half of the NFL runs 43 D there might not be much of a heated demand early for 34 D tweeners. This is something that I will be watching in this yrs draft to see which of the ER's will drop into our range in the very late 3rd rd area.

I was a little surprised that Og only got 3.5 million a yr if the Rams really were in need of an ER sure would seem to me that they could have got that deal done but Og had a serious dependability issue for 4 seasons If I were his DC I would prefer Og gone too.

Rams look like they will need to extend ER Chris Garrett's grooming & development due to the history of Garrett's 2021 season. CG only saw the field for 1 gm with the defense regular/postseasons.

Ebiketie looks stronger than Obo. Ebiketie plays the run better too. I’d be happy if the Rams could land him. He would fit the culture well.

I think part of the reason the Rams didn’t want to pay Obo is that Garrett is a speed rusher also and Obo gets them a comp pick. Jourdan said Obo was a very popular guy on the Rams and if they could get him cheap they’d like him back but wouldn’t compete with other teams.

I’ll be interested to see if Garrett comes in bigger and stronger next summer.

Better hands, in fact one of the few who can compare to Odell.

I read Robinson has had only one dropped pass over the last two full seasons (2020, 2021). That's impressive!

I have a Traeger that I enjoy.
I bought my son a Pit Boss that has both the pellet smoker and a gas side as well.
Both are very good.

Clayton was a great sports journalist who also seemed to be a great human being. He will be missed. Not so easy to replace someone of his caliber these days.

Loyal said:

What else would Les use each and every 6th rounder for?

Click to expand...

My thoughts on your question Loyal would be:

A Heavy Duty RB that shows promise in being the last safety line in pass block protection of our QB & ability to catch las second passes from Stafford.

The addition of a very strong in line Blocking TE.

Several starting natural OG's

I doubt he falls that far. He could still be ready by midway in the season.

3 against one? Isn't that a little unfair?

Creed who???

Well...

1) he can't say anything prior to an announced deal as that could be construed as tampering

2) he just said that it wasn't about a Rams move. Ramsey's agent is Watson's agent and I'm SURE he was informed pretty quickly about the deal... when you blow past the guaranteed record by $80M... that's major.

3) I think we got one more set of eyeballs coming... soon...
