Draft says that it was written on the 21st, yet Google says it was updated 2hrs ago....If so, does this guy have any clue whatsoever? he says that we are likely to lose one or both of our Corner Backs to FA, hence the pick..

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He acts like he doesn't know we have 60+ million in Cap Room. He acts like we don't have enough to sign every freaking FA that we want to..What GOOD is this SCHMUCK??!!

It's why I don't pay attention to mock drafts anymore. Or the draft in general, until the actual day.

No one knows shit, especially when the real offseason hasn't even begun yet.

with the way his draft mocks out I would take Treadwell at 15. He was taken next by Detroit at 16. There are some good corners in this draft. We always need good corners but it can wait.

I have every expectation that the rams will resign Jenkins and Johnson so they wont need a corner. Id much rather draft Treadwell than any defensive player. The rams need so much offensive help they cant afford to go defense.

I can see your point, but it also depends on what we do FA wise!!
 
I wanted Apple when he was still considered a 2nd rounder and going under the radar. Now though that they've figured out how good a prospect he is he has jumped up to the mid first. Sucks. We will easily keep one of JJ/Tru, and most likely keep both. Even if we lose one we still got Gaines and Roberson, and we could bring in a vet or draft a mid rounder. Fisher has drafted really good cb's in his time with the Rams outside of round 1. No to Apple. We have bigger needs to hope to get in the 1st.

This would be a really bad draft for the Rams if it panned out this way.

He is close on how the QB's go but I would assume they go even faster. Rams loose both starting CB's to free agency then a CB could be considered here but not if Laquon Treadwell, WR, Mississippi is still on the boards that's nothing but sure silliness on his part.

If it were me & Laquon Treadwell was off the board @ #15 with this mock I am trading down to the late first round picking up a third round selection & getting ready for one heck of a great second day. Being armed with two 2nds & two 3rds lets rock.
 
I know you guys say we can't take a CB in the first round (especially if we resign JJ and Tru) but I think if he's the best guy on the board you take bpa in the 1st. If Jalen Ramsey's there - you take him. Apple? Maybe. If Treadwelll is there you take him and you've got your WR. Same for QB.

BPA. I'll keep banging the drum for it (or a trade down!)

The only way I say yes to apple is if we loose Jenkins. Tru, Roberson, Gaines are not #1 cbs
