Evaluating this draft is heavily dependent on the Snead/McVay evaluation of the OL. If they got it right, then there is a reasonable argument for taking Everett over Lamp. But if they got it wrong, then they blew the draft, IMO.
Maybe its the history that I'm hung up on but I can't remember the last time the Rams drafted a stud interior OL high. And these guys just continue the trend of dismissing the value of drafting a stud OC. It's no wonder the Rams OL has continually got stuffed near the goal line. They'd better know what they're doing with this OL, cause a lot depends on it not getting Goff pummeled.
I can't help but feel that Lamp fell into their laps and they screwed the pooch. I think Lamp is the type of pick that the good teams sit and take when other teams are busy getting "their guy" at least a half round earlier cause they have "a plan."
All I can add is that Everett better be good cause if he's no better than a Lance Kendricks I'll be fuming.
