Your point about virtually the entire O roster taking a back step in '16 is a good one, zn.
Gotta give you that much.
As I've posted multiple times before, I think that the Rams have no choice but to give both Tavon and GRob every reasonable opportunity this season to justify their draft status. A low risk, potentially high reward thing.
If any coaching staff can redeem them, it's this one.
But tbh, I'm not terribly optimistic. Both seem to have shortcomings between their ears, if you catch my drift. Not IQ shortcomings, necessarily, but "football smarts/desire to improve" shortcomings. Not coachable solutions, IOW.
I don't agree with that. In this sense.
To me Austin has already justified himself. 2015. But there's also a good chance that McVay may not want to use him that way.
I don't do "draft status." In fact, to be honest, I think it's a pointless endeavor. I don't need GR to "justify his draft status" because that's not a real and objective football criterion. If he pans out as a good ROT in his 4th year, I am not going to keep complaining about where he was drafted. I just don't like to use that kind of thing to bash players.
