I think it is safe to assume that of the top 8, only Lemon has a shot at getting to the Rams? Maybe Delane. Could Bain's really short arms cause him to drop? The Rams did meet with him. Delane or Lemon would be a good start.
I wonder what happens with Tate. His film is great. But he measured the same height and lighter in weight than Tyson. Then his 40 time. I figured he's run a 4.49-4.5, so 4.53 is not an issue to me, and I doubt it is to the Rams.
Bailey is long gone, but he rest of group 9-17 should be available at 13, so if the Rams are good any of them, a small trade down is on the table. The Rams def. want to get a 4th round pick in this draft. Tate, McCoy and Boston are my favorites in that order.
Group 18-40 is by far my favorite group (that is actually obtainable)
Chris Johnson I mocked to the Rams in 1.0 at pick 29, he had an amazing combine. I still like him at 29.
Omar Cooper is a guy I am seriously considering putting at 29 in 2.0. Daniel Jeremiah called him the "Ramsiest" WR in the draft. He really fits.
Tyson is a question mark. I was off the fence with him and his injury history, now after the combine and Lemon's interviews and Tates size, I think I'm back on the fence. People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.
Dillon Thieneman is a favorite of mine, and he really showed out. Its a deep SAF class, and the Rams don't seem to prioritize SAF early, so not sure he's a legit target, but he would be on my short list at 29.
Freeling may have tested his way into the top half of the draft. He's raw, but a stud. I really like Max Iheanachor and Caleb Lomu at OT as well.
Peter Woods as a 198 lb. DT is a no draft for me (had to pick on your typo) I think Woods would be a luxury pick in all seriousness.
Sadiq is long gone by 29, I am really curious about the Rams interest in him. If they like Oregon TEs, they have to absolutely love him. He is bigger and faster than most WRs in this draft. So could the Rams use him as a WR in 11 personnel and as a TE in 13 personnel? I'm being serious. Its a lot of routes to learn, but just imagine what McVay could do with him, and they tried to get Bowers. He's a weapon aligned anywhere.
Cashius Howell seems like a Rams style EDGE
Really great list. Surprised I didn't see Lee Hunter on the list, I'm assuming he was a just missed guy.
No Ty Simpson. Interesting. I think in the win now window, he doesn't fit. But he seems like a fit.
