Well in case you are wondering why I am fixated on you, is that you keep disrespecting a Rams player just based on looks. Let the dude have a chance before you jump on the bust wagon. You are making claims you can't back up and as long as you keep doing that, I will state my opinion.
Let’s set aside Atwell’s diminutive size. I mean, let’s just take his size off the table for now. Fuhgeddaboudit.
To me, it’s all about his rookie year contributions. Or in his case the lack thereof.
He looked pretty good in the vanilla preseason but in the regular season? Any objective observer would have to agree that he disappointed.
Both as a WR and on ST. He was once tackled by a blade of grass!
Moreover, McVay even criticized him publicly for a lack of study prep. McVay never publicly criticizes his players, so that seemed deafening to me.
Yeah, we’re hearing nice things said about him from the FO and Kupp now. But that was from OTA’s. Pajama Olympics stuff.
I’m pulling for him because he’s a Ram, but he’s gotta win me over on the field before I get onboard the Atwell train.
And yeah, I’m still a little butt hurt about missing Creed Humphrey from that draft who literally fell into Rams lap. Not quite Bobby Wagner butt hurt, but still…
