well not that short, but they are short for a OT. At least IMOthey are. That might be part of it.

That’s what I see.

zn had seen it differently a couple of weeks ago, not sure why...

Don't get too hung up about which positions they will play. This is Kromer, that can change. They sure aren't going to bench Hav when he's ready to come back. Evans has always looked like a guard to me anyway. And I can see Edwards at LOT.

Things do change. Hav isn’t being “rushed” back, if you can call that what they’re doing.

But the biggest clarification is that Evans looks like a more natural OT than Edwards. Just because he’s an inch or two shorter doesn’t mean he’s more of a guard than Edwards. Just watch how smoothly he moves his feet compared to Edwards. But watching Havensteins is the worst of all. And zn was dead on right about Havenstein. Overpaid.

Because he played tackle in college, well, at a high level, and has the athleticism. Edwards was a great pick. I still believe he can play LOT. But I concede the point that Evans so far looks like a great tackle. Though many were a little behind on Evans. The key was this--yeah Kromer himself said over the summer he was behind, but then into the season Kromer started sending out signals that Evans was catching up.

But as long as we're razzing each other with old arguments--remember when I criticized Givens and you defended him ferociously? Like the style of defending a player where it was unbelievable that this heretic would come along and smear a destined to be great Rams player.

Most of us--actually all of us---are never right enough to play the "I was right" game.

Having said that, I will now do this--brag about being right. I said early on (and I was not alone) that this could be one of the best Rams drafts in years. It really is looking that way. Rapp, Evans, Edwards. I believe that when solidified and less of a rookie that Henderson will be a great pick. We have to see on Long and Gaines, but in both cases, it's a matter of HOW good they will be. If you count RB2 as a starter, Rams may have gotten 6 starters from this draft.

We can agree on that, I'm sure.
