BonifayRam chimes in… Yes very surprised by the absence of a legit OG in the reserve unit. Just from my intense observations for the 3 preseason games of the OL'ers, the very first Practice Squad signing would be the Interior OL'er who had the best preseason OG performance of all the OL'ers.......Rookie Jack Snyder who played in all 3 gms played the majority of snaps @ RG.

Quoteden-the-coach Shocked here. Sometimes I really believe that Coaches over value game experience over upside. I realize that Bobby Evans has played in live NFL games, but it has not been good IMHO. On top of that, he's not been very good the last two years in preseason against primarily backups. I understand the Rams feel that Evans can play guard, but he proved last year, he really couldnby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Cooper Kupp Allen Robinson Van Jefferson Ben Skowronek Tutu Atwell Brandon Powell Lance McCutcheon The Rams decided not to keep eight receivers, cutting Jacob Harris on Tuesday. That’s largely due to the emergence of McCutcheon, who led the NFL in receiving yards this preseason. Even if McCutcheon doesn’t play much as a rookie, if at all, the Rams couldn’t risk losing him to waivers. Heby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Instant analysis of every position group on Rams' 53-man roster Cameron DaSilva The Los Angeles Rams have set their initial 53-man roster for the 2022 season, a collection of players that will change dozens of times over the next few months.

Here’s AvengerRam… I think the Lance McCutcheon over Jacob Harris is the story of camp/preseason. You have to be impressed with an undrafted rookie who comes in and beats out a guy who we invested a 4th round pick on just a year ago. Keir Thomas is another story you have to like. Transferred to FSU, has a good year, not at the Combine, had a good pro day, goes undrafted, and fights his wayby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

BonifayRam on some Ram OL moves… So 4th yr veteran Bobby Evans is our #6 or #7 Ol'er? Rams #6 & #7 2021 OLers were Noteboom & Shelton ......With OT Evans replacing OT Noteboom the Rams went the wrong way if they wanted improvement to their OL in 2022? My eyes must be getting really bad because IMO Swing OT AJ Arcuri played much better in the preseason than OT Evans. One good tby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Rams of Castemere has thoughts as to why Perkins was retained… I think it's for practices. More QBs allows more players to get reps, and maybe Stafford gets some rest days for his elbow. Also, my theory is that they use Perkins to practice and game plan for mobile quarterbacks.by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteCoy Bacon I see things the same way, however, I tell myself that McSnead has earned the benefit of the doubt. I don't like keeping Funk and Evans and Perkins but maybe they have value that we don't see, and maybe the guys we like have weaknesses we don't see. Still.... I'm doubtful, not positive. Yes, Snead/McVay certainly have earned the benefit of the doubt, Coy. But still…by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
In no particular order… Keeping 3rd QB Perkins. A waste of a valuable roster slot. Only thing that halfway makes sense is if they plan on dangling Perkins as trade bait for a desperate QB needy team that just had an injury? Keeping Jake Funk. Why? He’s not an effective RB and surely his ST play could be done by another more promising player. Keeping Bobby Evans. Gawd! Does he possess incby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
