The Rams think they are fine defensively and based on Wade’s comments and previous history they are going to build the middle of that D in the middle rounds of this draft
They better get him signed. You can say that again!! (re Cooks)
Cooks like a very fine receiver ....definitely has some jets and looks like a better route runner than Watkins. I have also seen some former GMs saying Cooks is better than Watkins... the production certainly supports that

I like Cooks, don't get me wrong ... I just think we really handicapped ourselves. I'm excited about our offense but even trading up to the 60-70 range I don't know how we're going to get our defense on track. It was a good year for rushers too, dangit.
They need one edge defender and it already didn't look good in the 1st round.
I wasn't in love with Landry. I recall you may have liked him but other than him, who is the edge defender at #23?
In the 3rd, they still may get Josh Sweat, Okoronkwo, Dorance Armstrong, Kemoko Turay, or Lorenzo Carter. IMO the 3rd round was where the value was at for edge rushers. Am I wrong?
And it's been repeated about 1000 times that Wade doesn't spend premium resources on ILB. They already have Littleton and Ramik. That may be enough. If it's not, they have a ton of 6th round picks.
I'm hesistant about this trade because it's another rental but not terribly sad about giving up the 1st. They better get him extended now.
