PressureD41 Mock Draft 1.0

Okay I'm going to give this a shot, so feel free to tear it apart if need be, so without further a do, Lets Go!

My Thoughts:
Despite all the freakin ODJ trade talk, I'm going to focus on BPA while attempting to fill holes. We get a future LT to groom which I think is huge! Add 2 Edge Rusher's that can be rotated in year 1...Added 2 interior OL that I think can be starters in 2-3 years. Big fan of Cole at OC... Pitt WR has a skill set I think we could use on the outside..Added a TE a jack of all trades type that can hold onto the football so Higbee is on notice...Found our FS Davis replacement....Any lastly we took a chance on a RB w/ the thought to push for our #3 spot and be weapon out of the back field and push Cooper on Sts

1.23 Connor Williams LT Texas

In Indianapolis at the NFL Combine, Williams notched 26 reps on the bench press and a 5.05 second 40-yard dash. He also recorded a 34.0” Vertical Jump, 112” broad jump, 7.83 second 3-cone drill and 4.63 second 20-yard shuttle.

Scrap Williams’ injury-riddled 2017 tape and go back to his sophomore year. That season he was utterly dominant and allowed only four pressures all season. Not many true sophomores are capable of the level of play we saw from Williams in 2016, as he flashed all the tools necessary to be a high-level tackle in the NFL.

3.87 UCHENNA NWOSU, USC Edge Rusher

Flashes the athletic traits and speed off the edge that teams will be looking for but the overall tape is very uneven. Nwosu may not have the edge strength to handle run downs, however, if he tests well at the Combine as expected, teams may fall in love with his burst and eyeball a future role as a designated pass rusher.

4.111 HERCULES MATA’AFA, WASHINGTON STATE Edge Rusher

Mata’afa played a grand total of seven snaps this season outside the tackles, but tipping the scales around 250-pounds, the Washington State defender will have to end up there in the NFL. It’s intriguing that he still racked up double-digit sacks from the interior – often blowing past guards and centres at the snap with his lightning quick first step

4.135 MASON COLE, MICHIGAN OC/OL
Projects to OC

Cole played both tackle and center at Michigan, but never quite mastered either. He’ll be on the interior in the NFL, where that cross-training could be seen as a positive. Cole also hails from a creative, pro-style run scheme at Michigan that should translate well at the next level.

Taylor Hearn, G, Clemson

Draft Prospect Outlook:

Phone-booth power blocker who wins with point-of-attack strength and a sound foundation. Struggles when stationary and faces a counter move. Mobile getting to second level.

College Recap:

Hearn redshirted his freshman season in 2014. He came to Clemson from Williston, S.C. as a three-star recruit according to the 247Sports Composite. As a redshirt freshman in 2015, he played in 14 games and recorded 180 snaps. As a redshirt sophomore, when Clemson won the national championship, Hearn started all 15 games and was tied for second on the team with 32.5 knockdowns.

This past season, Hearn was named a permanent team captain. He started all 14 games and had 29 knockdowns. He had two knockdowns while playing all 70 snaps against Alabama in the All-State Sugar Bowl, and was named team offensive player of the game for his efforts. - Anna Hickey, Clemson247

6.183 Jester Weah, WR, Pittsburgh 6-3/210

It took a while for Weah (wee-ah) to earn the playing time necessary to make a name for himself with NFL scouts, but the size/speed combination, body control, and solid hands he displayed during his junior year opened some eyes. He started seven of 13 games played, averaging 24.2 yards on his 36 receptions (870 yards), which ranked second in the nation. His 10 touchdowns were third in the conference, as well. His production as a senior dipped as the team's passing game declined, however (41-698, four touchdowns). The Wisconsin high school All-State pick (38-799, touchdown as a senior) and sprint champion (indoor 55-meters, outdoor 100 and 200-meter) redshirted in 2013, but did not catch any passes in 2014 (eight games played) and 2015 (nine games).

6.194 CHRIS HARNDON, TE Miami "Its All About the U"!

Herndon's athletic ability will flash on tape, but his college production was pedestrian and he's still very raw. He has TE2 potential if he can improve his upper body strength and hand placement as a blocker. While Miami used him as a "run after the catch" option, NFL teams may lock in on his ability to threaten defenses on the second and third levels. Herndon has exciting athletic ability, but there is still plenty of room for improvement before he becomes a factor in the NFL.

6.195 Siran Neal, S, Jacksonville State


Neal is a small-school prospect who scouts said impressed them durign the fall. The senior is a quality run defender and some coverage skills. Playing cornerback, he totaled 39 tackles with 11 passes broken up, a forced fumble and an interception in 2017. As a junior, he recorded 80 tackles with 11.5 tackles for a loss, .5 sacks, four passes batted, one forced fumble and an interception.

Jacksonville State had Neal playing corner, but scouts say that for the NFL, he projects to safety as he is kind of tight. However, he is a physical and aggressive defender who would fit safety well. They think Neal could be at least a good backup and special teams contributor. He helped his draft stock by having a decent week at the Senior Bowl.

6.198 Martez Carter, RB, Grambling State

One of the most underrated prospects in a deep running back class, Carter has been a dangerous, explosive weapon for the Tigers throughout his career. A versatile player who can score every time he touches the ball, Carter has been a productive playmaker as a runner, receiver, and in the return game.

The time Todd Gurley was threatened by a troll and answered back

This is part of a long article on trolls you can read at the link below. Good for Gurley for answering back to an anonymous jerk who is no longer quite so anonymous.
***********************************************************************************
https://www.si.com/more-sports/2018/03/29/twitter-internet-trolls-sports-athletes

That lust for contact—even if it comes as a scolding—is at the root of this phenomenon, says Justin Patchin, a criminal justice professor and the co-director of the Cyberbullying Research Center at Wisconsin-Eau Claire.

“Before social media, the only opportunity you’d have to engage with a sports figure would be to go to a game and maybe heckle or ask for an autograph,” he says. “That took work, time, money. Now you can just lift your phone and they’re right there.”

That leaves 21st-century athletes with a decision to make. Engage? And if so, how?

“Psychologically, it can be very hard to ignore hateful things being said to us,” says North. “It’s human nature to defend yourself at some point.”

Which is precisely what Todd Gurley did in 2016 when a troll using the handle @CodyHasek1 tweeted at the Rams running back: @TG3II if I ever see you in public we’re fist fighting over your fantasy football performance this year. Gurley wrote back, bluntly:

gurley-pull-up-small-2.png


We can all be grateful that Gurley’s troll (a 23-year-old male who works at the Ford plant in Harrisonville, Mo., and who, judging by his Facebook profile, appears to be in far worse physical shape than the All-Pro running back), did not, in fact, pull up—although there’s probably a maxillofacial surgeon near the Rams’ practice facility who missed out on a windfall. Still, the urge to respond the way Gurley did remains hard to resist.

Here's the entire Twitter feed from December of 2016.

NFL.com Poll

Which team has the most dominant D-line in the NFL now?


Well hell, I copied the current results and it didn't post here. The Rams were winning at 54%. I don't know what in the hell the other 46% of people were thinking! The other choices are Eagles 21%, Jags 13%, and Vikes 12%.

Why Be a Head Coach and What Makes a Great One?

Last night my boss and I were talking about coaches. For those of you who don't know, and I don't want to bore you with this fact, he was a DC in college and the European leagues. He said he never wanted to be a head coach. He said that some coaches just need to get out of this mindset that HC has to be the logical end game. You are either meant to be a HC or you are not. You either like and are equiped to be involved in all aspects of the game or you do/are not.

He was talking in particular about Bellifat, Jim Harbaugh, Wade, Saban, and McVay. He said you can see the way they coach on the sideline and tell if he is meant to be HC or coordinator. He said as much as he hates the patsies, no one is better at being a HC than Bellifat. Harblow takes a close second and Saban has it but is way too much of a head case when he doesn't have ridiculous talent.

He says it is a bit of a strange situation where McVay gets away from the sideline when the D is on the field. But he also thinks that is just because Wade is such a great DC - the best in his eyes but Wade is a friend of his. He feels McVay will take on a more varied role as he gets more experienced and doesn't have someone like Wade around anymore.

He is really high on our young HC because the game is not about him but about everything football, strategy, and what it takes to make ordinary plays work. He says the Rams don't do anything that hasn't been done before. The plays have always been run but with very subtle tweaks. McVay works on little details that make plays just work.

Anyway, it makes me want to watch Bellifat (puke) closer because he says you can see him position himself completely different depending on which of the three units is on the field. He says few if any coaches can see the alignments from the sideline like Bellifat can.

I also asked him if he thought that is why Bellifat's coordinators don't generally go on to be good HCs. He said that is exactly the reason. Bellifat is a total control freak and for good reason. His coordinators never really get a chance to actually control their units. He does think however, that his former DC Patricia may break that mold. I didn't get into that with him as I was fucking sick of hearing good things about the patsies.:cool:

Updated Super Bowl Odds

Bovada has updated their odds on SB 53 and have adjusted the Rams to 15/1, 4th behind New England, Philadelphia and Minnesota. Harrah's also has the Rams at 15/1.

Rams getting some love from Vegas? I have a feeling before the season starts (barring injury), Rams odds may even get better.

Vegas odds makers know their stuff and are usually spot on. Rams are serious SB contenders. Been a very long time since we could say that.

Shanny uses every second...

NBC is reporting that Shanahan took advantage of every second available to “teach” Jimmy G during his first year. This included talking to him at the los and helping him reading the d, seems like I remember McVay getting ripped for trying to help Goff in the same way. Interesting how complimentary the piece was, giving Shanny credit for doing all he could to help his qb while McVay was accused by some of cheating when he did the same thing.

Drafting a QB every two to three years

We've kicked this around before, the idea that taking a QB every couple of years (i.e. the Ron Wolf approach) is important to ensure depth at a crucial position. It allows you to be better prepared for absorbing the loss of your signal caller, as well as potentially enabling an affordable QB solution if you hit on the position.

Since we drafted Jared and got him a top offensive mind things are looking up for us. But the backup position is manned by a guy who will be a FA next offseason, and while I like Allen I'd also like to see some competition brought in for him. Some ideas have been kicked around like adding Kessler if they can get him cheap, but overall it's pretty clear with an extremely deep QB draft this year that now is a good time to scoop a backup somewhere mid to late rounds.

Just read an interesting article about Kraft recognizing the drafting of a QB, and one thing that really surprised me is how often the Patriots have taken shots on QBs. Check this out, courtesy of the link above:

2016: Jacoby Brissett (3rd round) -- traded to Indianapolis in 2017.

2014: Jimmy Garoppolo (2nd round) -- traded to San Francisco in 2017.

2011: Ryan Mallett (3rd round) -- traded to Houston in 2014; spent past three years in Baltimore; current free agent

2010: Zac Robinson (7th round) -- released in 2010; never threw an NFL regular-season pass

2008: Kevin O'Connell (3rd round) -- waived in 2009; current Redskins QBs coach

2005: Matt Cassel (7th round) -- went 10-5 starting for Brady in 2008; traded to K.C. in 2009; spent 2017 in Tennessee; current free agent

2003: Kliff Kingsbury (6th round) -- waived in 2004; threw two passes for the Jets in 2005; current Texas Tech head football coach

2002: Rohan Davey (4th round) -- made seven relief appearances in three seasons; released in 2005

2000: Brady (6th round) -- GOAT

You can't make this up.........Nikolas Cruz gets fan mail

What a fucked up thing that is right!?!?!

Women are sending him semi nude photos and love letters.

What is wrong with people........this is insane. He's getting more mail than any other prisoner in the 40 years according one guy has worked there that long.

If it were up to me they would release the names of all these useless idiots so they could get the public backlash they so richly deserve.

Legal Sports Gambling Is Coming To The NFL

Legal Sports Gambling is Coming, and the NFL Is Getting Ready to Capitalize (Of Course It Is)
By ALBERT BREER

image


ORLANDO — It’s 2021, and Browns quarterback Sam Darnold runs on the field, his offense given the ball at its own 25-yard line after Pittsburgh drove for a touchdown. As everyone does after the other team scores in the post-kickoff NFL, Cleveland has 75 yards to navigate and endless possibilities for how this will go, and a few for how it’ll end.

You’re sitting in Section 137 at FirstEnergy Stadium, a long throw away from the line of scrimmage, and what’s in your hand makes you feel even closer. Right there, on your phone, is the Browns Bets app presented by Caesars. You scroll down and see 3-to-1 odds on Cleveland getting a field goal out of the possession, 7-2 odds that the Browns will score a touchdown, and 3-2 odds they’ll wind up punting it away.

You put $50 on the field goal. Then, you throw down $75 on 5-1 odds that veteran kicker Zane Gonzalez will score the game’s next points. And so you settle in, having bet $125 to win $600.

This is how the NFL sees the future.

And this week, here at the Ritz-Carlton Grande Lakes, the process formally began of pulling the perfect sport for gambling—football—out of the shadows and into the brave, new, modern world of gaming. Owners and team executives have been quietly been looking forward to this for years now. But it wasn’t until Monday that the formal discussion began.

They’re all taking baby steps for now. The gambling session, run by league EVP of business operations Eric Grubman, was to inform the owners on what’s out there, and what the NFL is doing to prepare for the new reality that just about everyone believes is inevitable.

“We’re so early on in this process. I don’t have a clear understanding as to where we’re going to go,” Giants co-owner John Mara said during a break the other day. “But we’re having discussions that we’ve never had before.”

The timing’s not a coincidence either. The Supreme Court is expected to rule soon, maybe next week, on whether or not to legalize sports betting in New Jersey. If it goes through, the floodgates could open nationwide. The NFL knows it has to be ready.

In this week’s Game Plan, we’ll cover everything from the league meeting—looking again at the new targeting-like rule; the Odell Beckham situation; the rebuild-on-the-fly in Miami; the coaches’ continued effort to flip the offseason work rules upside down; and what exactly to make the Panthers’ sale.

We’re starting with a topic that many of the owners assembled here disagree on, but everyone knows is, as one league source put it, “a big f---ing deal.” Whether they regard it that way because of old integrity-of-the-game concerns or new business opportunities, there is no question that it was as compelling a topic as any the league put on the table this week.

“It’s a very complicated issue,” Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt told me. “We don’t know what the supreme court is going to do. They could kick it back to the states, and that’ll create another process. One thing that was raised to us is you might have some state laws that conflict with federal laws, which will make it really complicated. What the league is trying to do in preparation for it is figure out how to maintain the integrity of the game, because that’s the most important thing on many, many fronts.

“And so they’re beginning their work on that. Obviously, there’s legalized betting that goes on in Europe in the Premier League, and other soccer leagues, so there are models they’re trying to learn from.”

So with all this in mind, here are five things I learned about where the league intends to go:

• In-game prop betting is where it’s at. The Buccaneers (Manchester United) and Rams (Arsenal) were able to help the other 30 teams here this week, based on the in-stadium betting that goes on with their Premier League clubs. And it’s clear that traditional betting on games and odds doesn’t have near the upside for NFL teams as in-game props, like the one I cooked up above.

Not only is there great opportunity to turn a profit here, there’s also the reality that this sort of action is tailor-made for a younger generation that is less willing to sit there and just watch a game, with nothing else going on, for three hours.

• Foreign doors are open. There’s some dispute over whether in-game action would help the league globalize the game. I met skepticism at the notion that it would prompt anyone to start watching a sport he or she hadn’t watched before. That said, for the same reasons it could help the league appeal to young people domestically, it probably wouldn’t hurt in keeping the eSports generation abroad engaged.

“It has a chance to elevate interest in the sport, especially in markets where our game is on at the wrong time of day,” said Hunt. “If there’s increased sports betting, I think that could be one indirect positive for the league.”

• Watch the NBA. It was explained to me, by several owners, that going in and trying to monetize traditional betting on a point spread would be a low-margin business for the NFL. So while the NBA made waves by saying it’ll seek 1 percent of all basketball-related bets, its football counterpart is more likely to play it conservative there.

If the NBA succeeds? Well, then the NFL will play copycat. Really, as a couple owners I talked to see it, there’s no reason for the NFL to take the lead in this area, just as it didn’t see the need to be the first to put down stakes in Las Vegas. Let someone else do it first, then decide. If the league needs to go, it can use information from within its sport, like the NBA plans to leverage a favorable deal.

• Sponsorships.As the league’s rules read now, NFL teams can’t use the word “casino” in any deal, and can’t have a deal with any casino that has a sports book. Taking the rules off the books would create massive opportunities for teams, and proof, again, lies overseas with the soccer heavyweights of Europe who have partnered with online gambling companies and casinos.

What’s more, teams in the Premier League haven’t run into the integrity-of-the-game problems that have for decades scared NFL owners and teams from doing such deals.

• TV ratings. This goes back to the younger crowd that’s less likely to sit captive for three hours to watch sports. It works in the living room like it does in the stadium. That audience wants an interactive experience, and this gives it to them.

The theme for this set of meetings was, as set by the commissioner’s office, The Game, The Fans, The Media. The league clearly sees now, and it’s illustrated through those words, the need to modernize and focus on finding new ways to reach new people who aren’t as automatic to jump on board with pro football as they once might have been.

So in a way, legalized sports gambling could be coming along at just the right time. The way wagering lends itself perfectly to the NFL has forever been a driving force in the overwhelming popularity of the game. And for forever, the NFL has had to be a spectator.

Now it seems that could be coming to an end. And the NFL could have a powerful new lever to pull in the effort push its business forward.

“Our fans are involved, NFL fans are,” said Cowboys COO Stephen Jones. “And any time there’s a business opportunity out there, you have to educate yourself on it before you make decisions on whether we need to be a part of it.

We certainly want our football fans to have the best experience. So if it’s something that we see as a positive for our fans, a positive for the league, and there’s no unintended consequences to it, then we’ll go further down the road.”

They’re just starting to set the course.

Owners To Eliminate Kickoffs?

Listening to the talking heads this morning and they were talking about what was being discussed at the owners meeting. The owners had a long talk about how the move to the 25 yd line didn't lower concussions and discussed eliminating kickoffs entirely.

This is bad news for football. I fear the NFL will soon look just like the Pro-Bowl. Kickoffs are a big part of the game and one of the most exciting aspects of the sport.

Back up offense lineman?

My first post in maybe was The Big 5 !!

It was the towards the end of the preseason, & I went to the Chargers scrimmage & yelled at everyone. My biggest take from it was the connection of the offensive line.

I was very unhappy with the backup offensive lineman. Les Snead has to of heard that rant ?
I know he looked up at me from the sidelines for a little while thinking who the F’ is that guy .

I think Saffold was getting beat real bad as well ? Mannion could not complete as pass in 3rd down situations ?

So the story goes watching Whitworth & Sullivan on the sidelines was awesome. They
Went to the back of the bench’s & then Saffold had head down. Big Rob & Brown sort of solo.
Jared Goff always checks in with the 2 veterans, & Saffold got his composure & gathered after consolidated. Big Rob became a sponge & Brown just fit in .
This is how The Big 5 started to develop as a Total Unit. John Sullivan & Whitworth bringing there leadership to The Rams !!
I expect The Big 5 to be better this coming season.

This post is about the backups though.
Austin Blythe was amazing surprise filling in , but after that ??

Looks like Darrell Williams won’t to be back ?
The Rams have no depth at all behind Saffold & Whitworth except Austin Blythe.

Cornelius Lucas is a mammoth of a guy, who some said played real good as a starting RT against the 9ers ?

Neary at center played well at center.

The Rams were very high on Eldrenkamp & they brought back Dunn at Tackle .

This all said after Sullivan just resigned The Rams only have Whitworth coming back in 2019 ?? To say that offensive line is not number 1 one the list of position to fill would be almost ludicrous.

Replace Mannion with Johnny Manziel

Oh NO you dint!

Yeah, I said it! Now hear me out, please. Before everything that happened this off-season, it would have been a joke for me to consider this (Go ahead and laugh, LACHAMP46!:yess:).

I've been disturbed by how bad Sean Mannion looked in the last game last year. He didn't even look like a NFL back up in the frisco game. Manziel has skills and mobility. I think if he received the same training as Sean Mannion, he could do incredibly better. I have no confidence that Mannion will not only not win a game, but would be factor iin future losses should he take over for Goff in any instance. It seems that Johnny has matured, and I am just talking of him in a back-up role.Make it a veteran minimum deal, because we have the worst back up in the NFL, imo.

Snead: Ogletree sacrificed for Peters/Talib

Just five months after signing Alec Ogletree to a lucrative new contract extension, the Rams turned around and traded the star linebacker to the Giants.

What did Los Angeles' brass see down the stretch last season that inspired the sudden about-face?

In a sit-down interview at the Annual League Meeting in Orlando, general manager Les Snead told the Around The NFL Podcast that Ogletree was a victim of defensive coordinator Wade Phillips' cornerback-oriented scheme.

"Great leader, great human. We re-signed him because he was one of our best football players," Snead explained. "But when we went back and really analyzed, talked about, discussed what makes Wade's defense go, it's the corner position.

And interestingly we did the Marcus Peters trade before we did the Aqib Talib trade. But once Aqib became available, how do you fit him within the parameters of your salary cap, with other things like Aaron Donald extension, things like that, coming down the line? Sometimes you have to make sacrifices to get gains. ... Once we came up with that vision, that goal, we attacked the offseason."

As we witnessed with the star-studded Super Bowl 50 defense in Denver, great cornerback play allows Phillips to be more creative with his game plans and play calls, unleashing unrelenting pressure on opposing quarterbacks.

While Talib spear-headed the Broncos' celebrated "No Fly Zone" secondary, Phillips made do with a late-round draft pick (Danny Trevathan), a former practice squad member (Brandon Marshall) and an undrafted free agent (Todd Davis) at inside linebacker.

Ogletree's cap number of roughly $12 million for each of the next three years was a luxury Snead could no longer afford once the Rams determined to fulfill Phillips' wish for premium cornerbacks.

By swapping out Ogletree, Robert Quinn and Trumaine Johnson for perennial Pro Bowlers such as Talib, Peters and Ndamukong Suh, the Rams are emerging as perhaps the most compelling team in the league. If Snead manages to land mercurial Giants megastar Odell Beckham as the final masterstroke, NFL.com's Gregg Rosenthal won't be the only one proclaiming football's version of Showtime in Los Angeles.

Rams are an NFL first! Male Cheerleaders

The Rams have another NFL first in 2018 when they'll be the first to have men in the cheerleader groups manning the sidelines.

http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Culture/m...ry-describe-lengthy-la-rams/story?id=54063851

For the first time in NFL history, the Los Angeles Rams announced that two men would join its cheerleading squad.

Quinton Peron and Napolean Jinnies will step out on the field this season, cheering and dancing alongside the previously all-female team.

"I thought, 'Why not me? Why can't I do this?' And called my friend and I asked her when auditions were for the Rams and she told me Sunday [March 11] and I showed up," Peron said in an interview on "Good Morning America."

The two men and California natives were among the 76 finalists who auditioned for the Rams cheer team and told "GMA" they were elated to make the squad, especially after the lengthy audition process.

"They were unlike anything I've ever been to. I'm used to getting a call after or an email," Jinnies said, referring to other auditions. "This one was about three weeks long and we had a bunch of rehearsals in between and an extensive interview process, but it was really humbling and amazing to be invited every time you came back."

Both men are classically-trained dancers and have been performing their whole lives. LA Rams cheerleader captain Emily Leibert said they were chosen for more than just their killer moves.

"They really just fit the bill to be a Los Angeles Rams cheerleader. They are intelligent, they are eloquent, they are more than qualified to be ambassadors out in the community," Leibert said. "They bring so much energy and there's something so magnetic about their performance, you really can't take your eyes off them."

Peron and Jinnies round out the team of 40 cheerleaders and will perform as traditional cheerleaders in every sense of the word.

Both the Baltimore Ravens and the Indianapolis Colts have male stuntmen, but Peron and Jinnies are the first-ever male dancers for a professional NFL team.

So.....I work with 2

Guys. One is a huge Giants fan and the other a huge Eagles fan. They basically said that if the Rams pull off a trade for OBJ that the NFL will be operating like the WWF. Said it’s no coincidence that the Rams are getting all these star players right before opening the new stadium and that the owners are ok with that because a successful LA market will put more dollars in all the owners pockets. Said that’s why the Rams just happen to be the only team interested in these players and they are acquiring them for paltry picks.

Of course I told them they are jealous of what our GM is doing but they won’t have any of that. They think if Rams get OBJ below market value and no other teams are involved that fans should demand an investigation.

Funny shit. Talk about sour grapes. What’s worse is my brother is a Niner fan and they’ve got him talking conspiracy theory too.

Was just wondering if anyone else has heard similar things from opposing fans.
