IRVINE, Calif. -- Eric Dickerson, the Hall of Fame running back and noted Los Angeles Rams hot-taker, made headlines once again a couple of weeks ago when he said Sean Mannion should be the starting quarterback over former No. 1 overall pick Jared Goff.
"Give him a shot -- you drafted him," Dickerson pleaded on Fox Sports 1's "The Herd with Colin Cowherd."

"I heard about it," he said after Sunday's practice. "I appreciate his comments. It's nice that he’s been supportive of me, but those aren't my decisions to make.

Just like any other Rams fan, Dickerson has a right to his opinion but, other than size and a strong arm I don't see that Mannion is a better choice then Goff.
Just a note: Orlovsky has also looked sharp with his passes and he's experienced pro. He may be a better option then Mannion as the back up to Goff.
Don't be surprised if Mannion is traded.
