And I "think" that it means... McVay, I do not believe, drafts a QB whose peak is a solid backup, not that early anyway... I think McVay sees him as a potential starter because if not he's not a Ram. IOW... McVay sees a lot more in him than how I'm reading the board consensus regarding his potential.
So as shocked as I was by the pick Bennett is for me, by far, the most intriguing pick the Rams made this year. That he will backup Stafford this year, and most likely next? Duh! But that doesn't in the least lead me to think the Ram's are of the opinion that a 'starting QB' is a need in the next couple of years. I think they believe they just drafted the next starter.
He could possibly be our next starter, but most teams aren't looking for starting QB's in the 4th round typically...
I think they saw the tier two QB run about to start and got their guy before it was too late and they were right, the QB run did start in that round and would most likely lost their chance to snag him...Snead did say though, that Stetson was his favorite QB in the draft , so he will definitely have a great opportunity to prove he can be the heir apparent.
