Good ol' Lawrence Phillips

[Legatron4]

Per @JGalvinKGET former NFL Rams RB Lawrence Phillips is under investigation for allegedly murdering cell mate in prison.

We could have drafted Eddie George...

If you listen closely you can hear Vermeil crying.

 

[Dodgersrf]

wow.

I watched a Locked-up episode a few years ago that had a guy that killed a couple of his cell mates. His reasoning was because he didn't want to share a cell with anyone else.
It worked. He no longer gets a cell mate.
He's a lifer, that lives in a state without the death penalty. All the State can do is add more years to a eternal sentence.

I don't even know what to say to that. But what's so cruel and unusual about giving a guy like that the chair?

 

[Mr. Walker]

Why was he blessed with unreal talent? Doesn't seem fair.

 

[CodeMonkey]

Not to derail but the electric chair is about as cruel and unusual a way to execute someone as it gets.

The liberals would be offended. You can't execute someone that can be "rehabilitated".

I thought his balance and vision were terrible. He would get knocked off his feet by the first contact. Not in college, but i was surprised how bad he was on the pros.

We could have drafted Eddie George...

Keyshawn Johnson, Jonathan Ogden, Ray Lewis, or Marvin Harrison as well.

 

[Memento]

Fate, what a fucking monster. And we could've had Ogden over him? Seriously?

Nah, that was a dumb post on my part. We would have had to trade up for K. Johnson or Ogden. We picked at #6 and #18 in the first round and got Phillips and Eddie Kennison.

I would have done that without hesitation. With Pace and Ogden as bookends? We would've never had to draft Barron. We could've easily spent that pick on Aaron Rodgers.

 

[RaminExile]

Worked out ok though guys. We replaced him in the draft with Trung Canidate a few years later remember???....oh....wait....

 

[Mr. Walker]

Ogden was selected 4th overall. So no, we couldn't of gotten him.

In a trade? Definitely. The sixth overall pick and a top twenty pick and a second round pick? It's not like we drafted anyone worthwhile with those picks.

But we brought it all home with Tony Banks in the 2nd...

Well when you start involving trades....there are a lot of players we could have drafted.

You always have to involve trades. Just the year afterward, the Rams traded up for Orlando Pace.

 

[Mr. Walker]

So the rams could of traded up for Peyton Manning.

More likely would have been Ryan Leaf.
