They're OL stinks and they didn't address it (except for Whitworth -- Sullivan is old w/bad back).
Whitworth does indeed help. I thought some lineman that played OK for rookies in 2015 seemed to regress in 2016 as did the whole offense. Perhaps in year 3 and with new coaching they won't stink, or won't stink as bad. You have to allow for young players to improve from year 1 to 2 to 3.Josh Reynolds doesn't know how to run a route. Everything is a fly pattern or slant.
Josh Reynolds was a 4th round pick, so yeah, I think people should be realistic about his chances and the fact that he needs teaching. But the Rams have assembled a staff of good teachers, in fact, it's one of the strengths of the HC from everything I've heard. A LOT of college WR's have to come into the NFL and learn better route running. But if being a polished route-runner as a rookie is important, then surely you've got something good to say about Kupp, no?Should have taken Lamp over Everett. We didn't need a TE. We have Higbie...and Hemingway. We need a center and a guard unless you're counting on Saffold.
You may well be right. I'd love to know why Lamp lasted into the 2nd round as a sure-fire NFL success. I'm not being sarcastic here. If he's that good why did he go to pick 37 in the first place? Maybe there's something we don't know. But McVay needs multiple TE's for his offense, so I disagree with you that it wasn't a need.
Sure would like to have a better center. We do agree on that.The Goff trade really hurt this team.
Well, it's easy to see ways that it hurt the team to have to give up those picks, but who is our young QB if they didn't do the trade? Mannion? Is that your guy?Let's hope Goff doesn't fumble every time he's hit this year.
That's a little hyperbolic. Let's hope with a better LT and some experience, he is getting hit a lot less.If GRob can't play LT what makes anyone think he could play RT?
I don't want to defend GRob. I'm not one of his fans. But aren't there a number of guys in the NFL who can play RT but probably can't perform well at LT?We should have offered the Bills center more money.
I know it would make me feel better if they had stabilized that position.Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 05/02/2017 07:38PM by Saguaro.
