This is a team that appears to have lost some idea of what they are trying to accomplish. If these recent moves reflect some future signing in 2017, then where was the vision and foresight for 2016. This is the current season.
Where are the upgrades and FA grabs that address our offense in 2016? No one had a clue Rams could go on to SB the year Green went down and KW emerged but at least is was not as obscure as this seasons prospects. I recall some great off-season moves that pointed to a desire for immediate success.
Mike Martz
Trent Green
Timmerman
Falk
consider the pieces in place and we had a chance
Besides Higbee who have the LA Rams added or upgraded with a focus on 2016.
Geoff appears never to have been a legitimate priority for impact in 2016.
Why I say OC - no change
OL-no upgrades
WR- no upgrade or significant investment /development
QB- plans were centered around Keenum for 2016 - not Foles or Mannion
This team has at best taken a step sideways but not forward so
We have to look at defense and I don't see the removal of 2 clear leaders without veteran upgrades and losing a 4-6 starters on Defense as a pick us up.
Where are the players we have been knowing were ready to step up and clamoring for time on the field?
I will wait for an answer.
realisitically it is very hard to be optimistic but easy to be hopeful since it doesn't take much to hope.
Los Angeles Rams
Rap on.
