One of your best posts ever Merlin.
I agree with it all.
I think people are going to be surprised how early and how much Jacob Harris is going to contribute. Imagine a guy about as big as Mike Evans, only Harris is one of the fastest guys in the league. A high 4.3 guy against a high 4.5 guy. He shows it on the field. He's not just fast. He's agile and has huge athletic ability. Was actually recruited in college as a Soccer player, if you can imagine it. Yeah, he's got some serious development ahead of him. But outside of Megatron, I'm not sure the league has seen anyone like him. And he's a ST cover demon.
As for TuTu. Not so sure about him being a PR guy.... but maybe. Perhaps a KO return guy at first. PR guys get creamed all the time. I'm not sure the Rams want that. Not sure who will be the PR guy, but you can bet they have candidates in mind that I sure hope no longer includes Kupp. And yeah they might use TuTu there and cross their fingers.
I'm not at all sure that the Rams are thinking D Will will be a goner after this year. A lot depends on how he does. If he plays even a little bit better than last season, he'll be in high demand. But the Rams were willing to give up 2 #1's for Ramsey plus a ton of dough. All D Will will take is a big contract.... no draft picks. If he develops to be THAT good (kind of a second coming of Darryl Green), the Rams may do whatever they have to do to keep him around. I think Ramsey and Williams have the potential to be the best CB pairing in the NFL in 2021. And for that you find a way to keep it going.
Staying healthy will be the major issue. But O man is the NFC West loaded. There's not a team in the division that couldn't win it. I keep expecting the Hawks to take a step back, but Wilson single handedly keeps them in contention. These guys are going to beat each other up so the odds of an NFC West team having the highest seeding for the playoffs is dim. Where the Rams and Hawks have an advantage is at QB. Garopollo is a very average QB, and I think Murray is going to be one of those guys who is constantly hurt because his entire game revolves around his running ability. And man is he SMALL. He was beat up a good portion of last year and I expect that to continue.
