Anybody notice that 7 of our 8 draft picks made the 53?

Only Sam Rogers in the 6th round missed out.

And that's without a 1st rounder, y'all.

Snead and McVay, take a bow gentlemen. Well done.

Plus 3 UDFA Just posted this in that roster thread.

I wouldn't be shocked to see Sam Rogers put on the practice squad.

That's not really uncommon.

 

[OC--LeftCoast]

Yeah that's not necessarily a good sign

 

[Soul Surfer]

That's not really uncommon.

Especially with a coaching change.
They're looking to change the culture of the team and when it comes down to the final decision their guy is going to be better.

Donald, Hill & Thomas will take spots when they are ready.

 

[PhillyRam]

It's called cheap labor... key is how many stick around and develop into significant contributors by year 3.

That's not really uncommon.

Unfortunately for the Rams it is.

Need a right on button. Been there before, truth.

Blue he needs to bulk up and learn to take angles to block at NFL speed. Absolutely agree.

 

[LACHAMP46]

Yeah that's not necessarily a good sign

My thoughts exactly

My thoughts exactly

out with the old, in with the new! Good thing this season, McVay's first
train

 

[Psycho_X]

I can't wait until they are fully developed and leave for other teams at the peak of their career.

 

[RhodyRams]

I can't wait until they are fully developed and leave for other teams at the peak of their career.

Or they hold out for new contracts

It's not a good sign that we drafted players that can actually impact the team and make the roster? I supposed if the opposite were true you'd be happy with only 1 of the 8 making the team? No I have a feeling that would have you screaming at the world for Snead to be fired.

Well said, OldSchool.

It simply amazes me when fans dismiss what should be very good news on the draft/FA front.

WTH do they want, anyway? Sigh...

I did't say it's totally bad...just a lil disconcerting that 5th, 6th, and 7th rounders could beat out veterans...that WERE drafted higher....

The bottom of the roster should experience a little turnover....this seems like a bit much.

Were the veterans all drafted higher though? The bottom of the roster is usually made up of bottom of the draft UDFA types. Every team has at least 10 guys new a year most teams average closer to 15 new. We had 20 which considering a new coach isn't all that bad. Especially when you consider how bad the team was last year.

I would have been surprised if McVay kept some of Fisher's picks over his own..........
