Maybe Noteboom does end up back in the fold. Maybe.. But by no means can they
count on him being the starting LT in week 1. If he surprises in his rehab and in camp next August, great.
But let's see what shakes out in free agency. The Rams will be looking at OL that get released elsewhere. Maybe a quality C comes available. Maybe LG. Maybe LT. Who knows. Then decisions will be made from there. Maybe including releasing Noteboom after June 1st ($8.5M cap savings).
Jackson is a good option- either to start at LT or be able to slide over there from LG. I would prefer a free agent LG with Jackson at LT personally.
Add another interior OL in the 2nd or 3rd rounds as well and then they are back to having some real depth and pieces in place across the OL.
