Well, with Copeland down and Hoecht on the Edge, the Rams had just three healthy DL in Gaines, Brown and Williams on the 53-man-roster.
 
Murchison, a 6-2, 297-pound defensive tackle, boosted his draft stock with his performances in front of NFL personnel at the Senior Bowl and the NFL combine. He earned a 5.97 prospect grade out of a possible 8.0 at the combine and was only .03 of a point out of 9th best grade among defensive tackles.

 
I don’t understand why the Rams are struggling this year. I know just the last couple weeks injuries hit you guys but I don’t understand why your this bad. You guys will bounce back next year though if Stafford comes back.
 
If he is even halfway decent Henderson will get the most from him. That's for damn sure.

Without actual research - off the top of my head it is this:
- playing an OL that has lost 11 players
- 3 best WR's out of action (although Van Jefferson is back now)
- gone through 3 QB's this year....
- down 2 RB's...
- probably a few Defensive players out also...

Basically, with $71 million on IR - it will take a toll!! :unsure:

I think that's more of a question for the Packers than the Rams.

Rams have had a catastrophic number of injuries.. including to Matt Stafford, Cooper Kupp and almost the entire offensive line AND their backups.

What's the Pack's excuse for such a disappointing season?

I meant before the injuries started you guys we’re struggling. You think the Super Bowl hangover affected you guys? Also I’m not trying to be disrespectful and sorry if it comes off that way. You guys are the Defending champs still. You’ll bounce back and I hope you do.

They don't have Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon and Robert Tonyan? And.. Aaron Rogers?

Their defense has been a HUUUUGE disappointment.. lots of people were saying Top 5 and they're doing significantly worse than the Rams.

You guys lost all of those O lineman to injuries? Sorry about your season. I know the feeling.

The injuries started before the season and never stopped.
There was such a small sample size of "struggle", it's impossible to know.
If you looked at the Bengals after 3 weeks.. you'd have thought their season would be awful.
 
Seems like a decent pickup. Seems the rams are stock piling previous draft picks of other teams.

Zachary Thomas. Bears
Murchison, Titan
Baker Mayfield, Browns First.


I get the need for DL but why not sign OG John Simpson the guy the Raiders cut. Both these guys have similar contracts.

Seems we need more young OL help than DL, but hey its a crap shoot. Let's see what we got! Both guys are young. I'm cool with either just generously curious as to why not take young OL help over DL help.

We lost MVS, St Brown and Adams. Rodgers has nobody to throw to. Rodgers is old now as well and he’s not as good as a year ago. I think it’s time to move on to Love.
