Sorry for the interrupted post earlier. That's what I get for trying to post from my phone!
Being an OK State alum, I watch every game and I have wanted the Rams to draft this kid since his first season.
I'm not sure where the bad tackler label is coming from. He was the best one-on-one tackler on the team this year, and only behind Malcolm Rodriguez (who I also hoped the Rams would draft) the year before. And he arrives with a thump.
He's got a nose for the ball and is really good at tracking the ball in the air. He's nails in clutch time too. He made a game-changing interception at Texas two years ago and sealed the win against Baylor with a late interception. Great leader too. Loves hitting the gym and watching film. He's always keying on something in a formation and moving into position to make a play.
I am absolutely giddy about this pick and I'm surprised he lasted until the 7th. Oh well, that's great for us! Overall, I thought this was a pretty solid draft. I don't know many of the names, but I liked where their heads were at.
It seems like the Rams went really heavy with picks in the Big 12. I don't ever remember the Rams taking this many players from the Big 12 in a draft but maybe I'm wrong.
