LMU93
I would argue the engine of McVay's offense is not a RB but a quality OL. As great as Gurley was in 2017 and 2018 what they need to get back to is a much higher quality OL. Without that who you have in the backfield is utterly irrelevant. I am not against drafting a RB but given their overall situation I certainly would not with either of their top 2 selections. Someone like AJ Dillon at #104 that could add to their power running game could be good. Or maybe someone at #126.
Can’t disagree with the importance of a good OL, 93.
But, just to clarify, are you of the opinion that the Rams must draft an OL player (or two) with our earliest picks? That our projected current OL is inadequate?
Other than a stud C that might fall to 52, do you expect an OL player to be there at 84 that could beat out any of Corbett, Edwards, Evans, or Hav as ‘20 starters?
Follow up question. Do you feel that an available OL player at our respective picks through round 4 would be better value/need Ram picks than edge, ILB, RB, or even maybe FS?
Color me skeptical, frankly.
