53 Man Roster (Offense)

Rams43
den-the-coach said:
Offensive Line (9)

LT….Andrew Whitworth, Pace Murphy

LG…Rodger Saffold

C…John Sullivan, Jake Eldrenkamp

RG…Rob Havenstein, Cody Wichmann

RT…Jamon Brown, Andrew Donnal

Tough battle for backup Center and I could see Blythe being kept with Eldrenkamp to the PS, however, have a feeling about Eldrenkamp and Kromer likes him so maybe Blythe heads to the P.S. and if a veteran shakes lose I could see the Rams signing a serviceable backup LT, but right now, it’s Pace Murphy over Darrell Williams.

RB (3)

Todd Gurley, Malcom Brown, Lance Dunbar

With the addition of the Full Back Rams go with three and have one or two on the practice squad as well.

FB (1)

Sam Rogers

Rams had not had a conventional Full Back in years so we shall see if Los Angeles is Mr. Rogers Neighborhood?

QB (2)

Jared Goff, Sean Mannion

Interesting to see the camp arm, but Rams will go with two young guns and keep another on the PS.

Wide Receiver (6)

Tavon Austin, Robert Woods, Cooper Kupp, Mike Thomas, Nelson Spruce, Josh Reynolds.

As I have posted previously I like Pharoh Cooper being traded as the Rams keep a backup punt returner on the practice squad like Shakeir Ryan.

Tight End (4)

Tyler Higbee, Gerald Everett, Temarrick Hemingway, Cory Harkey

Much to the chagrin of Jordan Palmer these are my four Harkey’s blocking too important to be ignored.

I think that you absolutely nailed it, den.

Including Harkey at TE.

Backup C might be interesting. Hearing nice things about Blythe. He might just be able to beat out Eldrenkamp, who knows? But that remains up in the air and impossible to predict at this point, huh?

Rams Training Camp Schedule

"Media may not, at any point, report details on personnel groups, formations, specific plays, etc... :redcard:

I ain't media, and I'll put that and more in my TC reports.:mrburnsevil::football:

"HC McVay will speak to the media on the field after each practice". I'll find some way to weasel my way close enough to hear and get it on my min pocket recorder.

As to banning cell phones for "any purpose", good luck enforcing that.

Rams' offense should be better, but by how much?/ESPN

The answer is IMMENSELY better.

Our OC last year was a first-timer at the NFL level, without having worked under any offensive mind of note. Our offensive line was a sieve. Our running game was non-existent due to no holes and a scheme that was not capable or willing to throw over a stacked box. Our wideouts did whatever the F they wanted, dropped balls, blocked like crap, etc.

Do the math. This offense is going to be night and day from last year.

I mean just look at Gurley. The focus isn't just on slinging the ball around. They immediately looked at him and how to increase his production and found fundamental flaws that needed to be fixed (the biggest was squaring up his shoulders and being patient on his blocks).

I'd made the comparison between Gurley and LeVeon Bell because Gurley is such a natural catcher that he's capable. And he seems to run pretty good routes for an RB that didn't have to do it much in college.

So McVay and staff are going to improve it all.

And honestly, with how our D is gonna come out of the gate, it won't take a top 10 offense to win games. They just need to extend drives and get 20 pts a game. If this offense is scoring 24 points a game, we're gonna be deeeep in the win column.

QB contracts are downright insane.

Honestly, if I were a GM... I would have a QB whisperer head coach in place to ensure I can get maximum return on the position. Then I would draft a QB every year until I find my franchise signal caller. Once I find him, I'd start taking a non-round-one QB every other year as a baseline rule. Carry 3 QBs, with one as a dev project, and flip the ones that I can like Wolfe used to.

And the goal in all this would be to avoid paying asinine QB salary. I know, I'm nuts.

This time of year is when I have time off from university, so I can really focus on my passion, the Los Angeles Rams. Of course, this is when THERE IS THE LEAST NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Give me the top 10 most important Ram's stories during your lifetime, that doesn't include the Super Bowl (that would be too easy).
1, Rams move to Anaheim, then to St Louis, and back to LA.
2..Rams finally beat the hated Dallas Cowboys in the Divisional Round enroute to its first Super Bowl in 1979
3. "Who's this Guy?" Kurt Warner
4. Rams acquire Marshall Faulk
5. Phantom Sack of Jim Everrett in the 1989 NFC Championship Game vs the 49ers.
6. Rams beat the 49ers after being dominated for so long in 1999.
7. First in person game at the LA Coliseum, Rams vs Browns, Dec. 16, 1973. (Rams won)
8. Rams trade Eric Dickerson to the Colts.
9. Longtime Rams MLB Jack Reynolds goes to the 49ers (and wins a Super Bowl..arghhh!)
10. Jerome Bettis traded to Pittsburgh.

I am sure that I missed some event that might fit into the top 10, but give me YOUR Top 10.

Downtown Rams Podcast: Vinny Bonsignore

I was also excited about what Vinny had to say about the competition and talent at WR. It sounds like we may not end up having any superstars on the roster but that we'll have players who can compete and get open with scheming.

I think this^ may have been the Case going into the 1999 Season, even though we had B-R-U-U-C-E, Holt was a rookie and everyone else Az and Proehl where unproven! And then BAM!!!!! Just speaking to the WR's!
