QuoteRamsdude was that all Suh's fault? that is EXACTLY what I posted, word for word. :lol3by Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRams43 Suh should help the Rams improve dramatically against the run. Last season, they ranked 28th in rushing defense, surrendering 122.3 yards per game. . And in 2016-17 Suh's Dolphins were 31st in yards per rush allowed and 29th in rushing defense.by Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteLos Angeles Lenny I would like to be able to incorporate TA into more first and second downs when the defense is more likely to be in their base defense, his potential talent is off the charts, his skillset does not warrant him being on the field. I am "hoping" that a year with McVay, and a Goff that is a year more mature could make it easier to accomplish this, but in the end it iby Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteAtlantic Ram It doesn't have to strictly be about gimmick plays. Rams WR's were schemed open at times. That seems the case because of how wide open many of Goff's throws were. So I'm not talking about the double reverses or whatever. Other WR's got the ball in space, so I think McVay could do it.. But he's not shown he can get open consistently and catch the ball consistently. The gimmickby Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteAtlantic Ram I think he can be an effective hybrid WR/RB. . I know folks like to talk about him not being a "pure' WR and what-not. Look, there is a playbook and each of the players has a designation, X, Y, Z, etc...so, when Austin is a one of those he's a wide receiver, that's the grouping (a "Y" is the TE but if Austin replaces him, he's the Y, or others playbooks call itby Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteLos Angeles Lenny I so agree, not a TA fan, but he is more explosive than the rest, you have to account for him if he goes in motion, not like Sammy Watkins, but if you put a LB on him in space: advantage Rams if he's in the game, then defense will be in dime, and the LBer would have Gurley. A DB would have Austin and as we;ve seen, DBs cover him fine, given his lack of success getting opeby Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteAtlantic Ram I hope they trade him because I would like to see him succeed somewhere. . maybe get a good STer. He is a failure as a receiver. His ability to play running back probably has kept him on the roster. But he is never going to anything but a gimmick running back that gets a few carries a game. He failed as a slot, he failed as an outside receiver and he failed as a returner,by Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteHollywood Ram In fantasy football AO was a pro bowler, I stand by my statement. He is not a pro bowl LB full stop. You also have to take into consideration the fact that he had more opportunities than lots of LB due to the how few plays the Rams inept offense ran in 2013 and 2014 (near the bottom in the NFL both years). In fact that were in bottom 3rd of NFL for offensive plays in 2013 -by Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRamsFanSinceLA Not to try to dissuade or argue as this is just an observation. In the first still it looks like there are only two out on a route so it's no surprise that SW is drawing all that coverage, and both receivers are fairly close to each other. In the second still, I can't tell who it is but another receiver comes out in the flat and a LB covers him. So is this a fair exampleby Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteHollywood Ram Ogletree is not a Pro Bowl type of player even in a 4-3 outside role. Sorry he just isn't. He his first two years he averaged 110 tackles (his solo tackles were 4th in NFL among OLBer 4-3 LBers), 1.5 INTs, 1 sack, 5 forced fumbles (most among 4-3 OBers), 11 passes defensed (NFL's best among 4-3 OLBers in that span), and according to scouting firms had "blue traits"by Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com

And as far as Pro Bowlers, it does not have to be Pro Bowlers, just Pro Bowl quality like Brockers, Saffold, Chris Long, Alec Ogletree (Pro Bowl quality as an OLBer in a 4-3), Joyner (2nd round, Pro Bowl quality), etc But it also includes Hav and guys like that Pby Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com
49er fans touting Jimmy G and Rams fans promoting Jared G. Neither realizing that the other team will be studying and working to take away what the other does. Teams know rams got a loy of YAC in 2017 and that is something they will try and limit, put Goff in middle of the pack and not the top...will mean Rams will have to work harder to sustain drives.by Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRamsFanSince69 via tradedown to get Everett at 44th overall. Still your point holds. the thing is, you can get decent players in the 3rd, but Rams have had drafted 3 Pro Bowl players in 3rd and 4th round since 1991—Incognito and Leonard Little and Cogs made his Pro Bowls after we cut him.

QuoteRams_81 In the meantime we go to the playoff 2 years in a row to improve a position that has been a train wreck with the Rams for more than a decade. one, not a sure thing that we've improved the position. It's a wash. But, the issue is not the offense. It's the defense. We have 4 ? at LBer. 1999-01 we went to Super Bowl twice, only in the years we had a top 5 defense.

there can be differences of what a bust is, but 1st round is not as high as you suggest, even though overall, an established player has a much lower risk than any draft pick.by Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRams_81 that Cooks will perform much better than the 23rd pick in the draft. In fact, somebody listed the last 15 #23 picks, and it was 15 out of 15 based on that list. You get a top player at a very reasonable salary for 1 year is the worst case and a proven top player. The Rams may sign him, but my understanding the way this works if he leaves, you still get a 3rd round pick back tby Blue and Gold - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteBilly_T But it's not this year for safeties, it would seem. The MLB hit its bump in the road, too. No "market" can keep going up forever, and the concept itself is entirely arbitrary, abstract and groundless to begin with, IMO.
