Whitworth was a coup and Goff ought to be sleeping better. But Barwin will start and make Rams fans happy. He is a very good player who is consistent; smart. Great size for the position.
With Quinn on the other side, and the DT pass rushers of Donald and Easley, the Rams have the potential to really harass the opposing QB. Rams have done a good job of keeping the D together. But I still think the FS position is weak unless they either draft a FS, or Randolph shows up, or they move Joyner to FS.
Have no idea whether losing out on Groy is any big deal or not. I just have no knowledge about the young man. I'm one that prefers Mangold anyway. Yeah he's an older guy with a chronic ankle problem. But he seems to work through it. And he has the savvy and credibility to really help this Oline get on track. It would give the Rams some time to develop a young Center while having a guy who performs well and knows what he's doing.
