I assumed the ABC NFL Draft was the same as ESPN for folks without Cable but it was a completely different broadcast so I had to record two and watch one. TBH the ABC broadcast wasn't the best besides the Nick Saban of it all.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
I might give up both of our Raheem picks IF they trade us back a 4th round pick this year. We need a 4th this year and losing two 3's isn't the worse when they are comp picks anyway. So Bills #33 and #128 for our #52, #99 and next years Raheem comp 3rd.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRams43 QuoteRamsDynasty The cost should be much less especially for a first round type talent in the 2nd. The point is whether or not a player at, say, 35 is worth that much more than another player at 52? And at the cost of a Day 2 pick? Day 2 picks are right in Snead’s wheelhouse. Look no further back than the 2023 draft. True but this might present the unique ability to pull a Texansby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com

Not only skipping training camp but the first half of the season to boot, lol.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
True but I am thinking the Rams should be calling the Patriots because they have lots of holes so they might be listening and pray that the Bills have to replace Diggs. You are right I call them both if the cost is similar remove all doubt and get the Bills pick but if the Pats are more reasonable, have a tentative deal in place but if the Bills take him or trade the pick then back out.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Hopefully the price for moving up in the 2nd isn't nearly as prohibitive as doing it in the 2nd. Go to near the top of the 2nd and hopefully get a 4th rounder too would be an elite day two of the draft.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotealyoshamucci And thanks DP, always appreciate it ... They took our WRs!!!! Pearsall and Legette BOTH! Notes ... I had Latu Turner Verse as my edge order. I had Pennix 4th and McCarthy 5th, though I never saw him going to Atlanta. Everyone in round 1 was on this list (usually I get 1-2 that are surprises). Biggest reach for me was Worthy (#55) and Mims (45)... Best Value was Brian Thomasby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
What on offense can the Rams do that will improve the team more than the best DT? What WR that would be available at #52 or TE that is available that would see the field? I am always for getting OL depth but right now all things being equal any OL pick in the 2nd would be depth, which isn't bad but a DT could be a starter. Our offense seems pretty set what position could we draft that would startby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
I am hoping the Rams are tearing up the league this year so much AD decides to pull a Weddle and hop off the couch for the playoff run. We ring and he decides he likes winning too much to stop now.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Is a trade up as high as necessary to get the 2nd round pick to get Newton and a fourth for our 2nd and a third. If the Rams can come out of today with Newton, a third and a fourth I will consider it a home run. So let's saw Newton still available at 42, then call Raheem and get 43 and their 4th for 52 and whichever 3rd rounder it takes hopefully the Raheem one will be enough.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
The DT that fits best, trade up for Newton, or if Jenkins or Maason Smith is there when we draft take them. Build up your trenches, OL in FA and defensive front in the draft.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteJimYoungblood53 ESPN Insider Dan Graziano named the Rams as a team making calls to move up in this year's draft and getting aggressive in pursuing the top talent in this year's class. The people I talk to think we're likely to see more trades in the second half of the first round than in the first half. The Colts (No. 15), Jaguars (No. 17), Rams (No. 19) and Eagles (No. 22) are all teamsby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Unless you have the #1 overall pick setting your heart on a prospect can be very stressful. The player seems perfect for your team and if you can see it you KNOW the GM's from other teams see it. Will they have enough, will/can we trade up enough to get them. Lastly will your team have to the good sense to get them if the prospect falls to them?

Is it just me or is the fg kicking in the UFL (league wide) better than the place kicking on the Rams last year? I mean of the games I have watched I can't recall a miss and there have been some 55+ yard fgs aplenty. I recall having a tight backside during 35 yarders for the Rams the UFL kickers nonchalantly kicking 50 yarders down the middle with yards to spare.

I am starting to see mocks of him going higher like 12 to the Broncos in some mocks. When GM's stack their boards for the final time the likeliness of him falling to us at 19 might face longer odds. Les might need to plant some injury concern stories to tank that value.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotesince68 The doctors say he is good to go from what I've read. That being the case, how high up would you go to get him or would you wait at 19 ? No need to go higher than the teens if what most people think about the draft lay out lays out but it might be wise to touch base with 13-17 to see what it will take so if a run on edge starts (two of top 3 gone) you already have trade parameteby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
I would say no because most draftnik talking heads say he is the best pass rusher BUT... and he is more often than not listed third among the edge rusher with the proviso that he has the best set of moves BUT...so I don't think it is an issue with a current injury but the injury prone aspect starts to pop up when splitting hairs between prospects.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
For me if not for the injury history we would have no shot at him without a major trade up, hopefully other teams injury concerns will work out for us like it did with Robert Quinn and the tumor concern let him land in our lap and had a great career. If our medical staff gives him the thumbs up, they have been impeccable except for whatever happened with Gurley, and even that was already known juby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
If QB's go in 4 of the top 5 and Harrison goes to the Cards so the people jumping high for QB's are done, how much would it cost the Rams to jump up to say from 19 to say 7 if they wanted Dallas Turner or one of the remaining top WR's? I know everything cost more when QB's are involved but if that isn't the case how much draft compensation would it cost? Heck better yet if the Cards trade back toby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
I love our FO, scouting department and analytics, I found myself severely jealous of the Lions picks since Brad Holmes left and feared the best of our FO was gone, last year's draft reaffirmed that our FO was still top notch but the Lions incredible draft proved we have major competition on that front for the forseeable future.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
In most mocks LL (Latu not Len Little) is either taken by or available to be taken by the Rams at #19. However and this is just MHO, LL makes so much sense for the Rams any team interested in him knows they will need to get above #19 to get him.

It was Coach Bonez that realized the untapped potential of Spring Football leagues and reaped a pro-bowl kicker for cheap with no competition. There is a value to being ahead of a trend and reapling the benefits. Now the Rams will have to compete for UFL talent whereas Bonez had no competition.

This is more for the draftnick crowd, of the OT's is Alt the best fit for the Rams at OT? Or would this trade up work just as well for Fashanu? I only ask because my Lindy's draft book has Fashanu as the top OT and Alt second, and for that matter Suamataia who they have ranked third which of the three is the best fit for Rams OL. I can understand why even though Alt is the 2nd ranked OT he is ranby RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
Are the only two players I would be happy with the Rams trading up high for, more than a couple of spots. Now if Snead fears someone will try to snake Latu right before they draft then jumping up two or three spots is a different thing altogether which I am ok with too.

He might have highly benefitted from the AD effect. Who knows maybe a stint in the UFL will humble and focus him. At least worth a flier because he has to have obvious physical traits. He might be a late bloomer like Arden Key?

Maybe the Rams should bring in Taco Charlton for a look too. He was a 1st round bust for the Boys but we would be bringing him in from the UFL as an extra edge he has to have more athleticism than say a Hoecht.by RamsDynasty - RamsFootballFans.com
