I seem to recall that John Robinson also wanted T Thomas.
.

linked to the Rams. Stephens was 220 ir so and ran a 4.4, went to the Patriots but burned out fast

I think Greg Bell told Shaw that Thurman was the guy, too.
Jim Everett said on Twitter that he was in the draft room
Shaw and Math left the room and called NYC and then
broke the news to a disappointed Robinson

  Just now fully read this--at least we got Flipper, so not worst Rams draft ever

  1st round was disaster, have to disagree some about rest

  I'm not sure if Thurman Thomas would have helped either.

  You nailed it. He wasn't even a football fan. He loved St.L Cardinals

JimYoungblood5339May 02, 2023 10:15AM

  He asked Greg Bell who was best RB--said Thurman, Rams took Gaston

JimYoungblood5340May 02, 2023 10:17AM

  I REALLY REALLY wish the Rams had hung on to Bell and Holohan while retooling.
