There are sooooo many opportunities for backup OL and that LB corps is gonna need 3 new starters plus it’s own backups. Not to mention the DL rotation. Whew!
There are good reasons why the Rams loaded up in those 3 areas. Forget the draft status vs UDFA’s. I foresee fierce competition for the pecking order in all of these areas. And I think that it’s way too early to jump on any player’s bandwagon.
I usually tend to have a favorite or two to really step up each camp. Sometimes I’ve nailed it, but sometimes my guy doesn’t even make the 53. Well, this year is probably a good year to just stand aside and let the players and coaches sort this out on the field.
We should expect the unexpected when the dust finally settles.
I’ll say this. No vet backup player should feel complacent, that’s for sure. This is gonna be one tough roster to make.
