You can't put big bucks everywhere

March 19, 2021 02:04AM
It would be nice to pick up every available player that could upgrade a position (like Center), but that's just not realistic. That's why they have a cap, and that means teams have to prioritize positions.

Snead said some years ago that his analysis is that you can pick up good Olinemen in the middle rounds of the draft and develop them, and they can be every bit as good as the higher picks. And, of course, you can pick up younger guys that were cut or on someone's PS if you have a book on them that says they can be developed.

Obviously the Rams are willing to spend some money on LT.

But it also makes me think that the Rams may have their eye on a couple of Centers they like in the draft, as well. Getting Blythe back for not too much to give a rookie time to develop could be in the plan.

  It seems McVay doesn't prioritize OL

droopy499March 18, 2021 06:47PM

  Bill Walsh did the same thing

Stafford9373March 18, 2021 06:50PM

  PFF did a good segment about this once

Ram_Ruler568March 18, 2021 06:54PM

  If the Rams add a good center to this unit

merlin502March 18, 2021 08:35PM

  Walsh had a long line of pro bowl OL

  Steve do you remember how strong the Rams were before Walsh started doing his magic

Stafford9148March 19, 2021 05:38AM

  I think that he does prioritize the offensive line.

Ram_Ruler398March 18, 2021 06:52PM
