Possibly but I do have some hope for Jones

To a stars and scrubs team. Rams have no depth anywhere and already down a star. The margin for error is zero now.

I really like his vision. The guy routinely sees and anticipates guys from his peripheral even, it's kind of amazing. And he cuts well on top of that, so he's very unpredictable for tacklers. Kind of RB that I always hated trying to tackle, the kind that can make you look ridiculous.

But for any team to lose a player of Akers' quality is an enormous blow. Akers was going to be a Pro Bowl level performer this season. That is the kind of key loss that can sink any team's Super Bowl hopes. Rams are definitely reeling right now even if they do like their RB room.

Lastly I know the Rams dislike CJ for whatever reason but I'd bring him in for a depth role to give us a chain mover if other guys get dinged up. Maybe he's ready to be a sage veteran who is about the team now. Either way if I'm Snead he's coming to camp because he knows this offense and looks great in it.
