Interesting note from Peter King this Moring:

I think the best news for the Rams in free agency is this: If a team wants to pay Joe Noteboom $12 million or so to be a starting tackle, Los Angeles has faith in last year’s undrafted free-agent find Alaric Jackson to give him a legit shot at winning the left tackle job in training camp. That’s assuming, as expected, that Andrew Whitworth, 40, retires this spring.

I guess if they hadn’t signed Joe than that would have been a big vote of confidence for AJ.

I hated to see Morgan go. He was a good pass rush threat. The Rams don’t usually do it but after only one year maybe a reunion happens, especially if the lose Obo. Obo was one of the top speed rushers in the league.

Agree. I'd love to bring him back, we already let Lawler go, he's far better than Copeland as a rotational pass rusher, and better in every way than Jonah Williams & Ernest Brown4. He should be cheap and can easily step into Hoecht's roster spot imo.

Seems like Boom's contract ended up in that range or better, at $47M over three seasons. Now we'll see what he can do with the job and they have Jackson in the wings if Boom can't live up to it.

I die a little inside anytime one of our free agents go to the cheater or the whiners.

Me too. But Williams was pretty bad at times last year. Extremely inconsistent, guys blowing by him in coverage. I don't care where he goes tbh he's not a difference maker. If he was he would have played better in a contract season.

damn didn’t expect this at all when he left here fully expected him to be worth it

Every year you see tons of guys being cast off who were overpaid. It's usually the marginal starters who were overpaid to bring them in or keep them in FA.

It seems like they do have a lot of faith in AJ. I don't think they'll hesitate to start him if Boom falters so that is quite valuable. And if Boom holds onto the job and performs then Jackson can be worked in at LG to keep his feet oriented that way.

So for now I'm thinking...

LT: Boom
LG: Jackson
C: Shelton
RG: Edwards
RT: Havenstein

Rams have room to mess around with the OGs and hope that competition fixes their interior probs. Not what I was hoping for but what else is new with the OL. Now they just need to bring in more fresh blood in the draft at the very least.
