They are fun, but the main thing is to respect them as well, others will be more impressed as well with your property....To be honest a fast car looks great sitting still, take it somby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
he should be running a team....LOL...So since they didn't go Edge they are in trouble, they planned bad, they made a big mistake......Sounds like a guy who didn't get his own wish and hence they made a mistake. Again the guy is in the wrong business, he should be a GM, wonder why his door isn't being knocked on for it? And where is that they tried to go with a FA edge, who was it they brought iby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
are brought about by the media. I really had no thoughts at all about the TE room being in trouble, but that's just me.....I guess there could be a lot of fans concerned, I am not one. Kinda like the fear they help bring about with must get a Edge in FA "Issue"........LOL......by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Now I hope all believe that they never had any real interest in any of these big name rushers. It was always in the cards for the draft, now go get 1 of the top 4 guys....1 will be there.....by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
I wouldn't put it into the remorse area though. I really did like Witherspoon, I liked his height and speed, I liked the way he handled the young guys, even when a screw up just happened. He stayed calm, never lost his "balance" even when he got beat, and he never went overboard when he made a play....and he made several big ones. I know he has nagging injuries (or so it seems), heby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
and Kupp go they would have addressed this earlier. All their big moves were done up front before/right after the action opened up. It seems to me they have been specific in what they have been going after, they went O-Line and they also left out Edge.....I think I heard they can still manipulate their cap space with guys in their lower tiers....like trading TuTu ($1 Million), Redoing Higs (@$3by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
The guy was coming off a knee tear, only to then blow out his Achillies.....We all know how Cam was after his deal, then he did it again (I think) with the vikings. This DB was lights out before these injuries, but these are MAJOR injuries. I am kinda afraid that we are starting that thing with picking up injured players again, but this time we gave out a chunk of change. I realize it's not asby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com

Is it going to clean energy ideas? I just don't see anything actually going to structure issues, more towards green energy plans. Or is the bill just full of pork plans so that actually little money is hitting the areas of need? I can bet that the 1st thing some will want to do is another infrastructure bill...by roman18 - Bucky's Pub
Just wondering, thinking ahead at issues like Jones, and possible issues dealing with restructures to Matthew and/or Kupp at this time. I thought at 1 time I heard they were flush with cap ...like 75 million, then I thought I heard they were pretty low at this time for next season.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
He didn't play much, but I do remember his splash play that was negated by a penalty against him. He returned an INT for a TD only for it to be called back because he had a penalty. I don't remember if the penalty was ticky tacky or not, but the flag was thrown. I look past that penalty and see a guy who was ball aware and very twitchy after the INT. He showed ball skills, although on a VERY lby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Out of all those choices you came up with I can only agree with Robinson. Tavon would be thought of differently if his punt returns were allowed to stand. Many of his returns that went for big yards, some even TD's were called back due to penalties, not his fault. His play on offense was relegated to what the system was and that offense reeked. Quick made some outlandish catches but was injurby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
means little to nothing in actual play on the field. His #'s have the RAMS ranked 31st out of 32 in 2023? His #'s also have Shelton higher than our newly acquired RG? The very guard who has a Pro Bowl vs. being who was considered the weak link on our line last year? Sometimes I think these analytics offer nothing but a job for those who make them up. I am not saying this for bias to the RAMSby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
a guy from another team doesn't mean he's a make for your team. These guys are not cookie cutters....Some edge guys emerge with help from others around them. Without certain players around them they don't perform as well. Sure, and I mean for sure guys cost a TON of money..... To say that a rookie edge can't play as good as a vet just isn't true, any more than any other position on a team. Aby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
I mean that statement just doesn't cut it to me.....because FA isn't any where the end all in getting your roster either. Many FA choices turn out to be if not flops, they don't live up to the money spent. Both options can be considered risks to a point. Saying an Edge in the draft isn't a sure thing but a WR is, or a lineman is, or a QB is? etc......The team has gone with their spending mostlyby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Why is it that it looks like so many find it hard to imagine getting a good edge rusher in the draft and that only through FA can we get a good one. Some of the very posters who are afraid of getting your edge in the draft are very up for getting a WR in the draft.....WR is supposed to be a hard starting point for a rookie, but no issue going there in the draft? I'm talking 1st round here. Iby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
the way he's talked about on this board I would find it difficult for anyone to want to trade for him no matter what draft pick they would do it with. For myself, I am hoping that he can be a pleasant surprise, while at the same time expecting nothing. He could really save us in several areas if he can become a roster spot.....if he doesn't you drop him, IMO he is of no trade value at all rightby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
IMO talking about spending can lead to mistaken ideas. Yes they are spending more on O than D, but that in no way means that the D is that far behind, or much worse relative to the O. They are cheaper on D because they are hitting on draft picks on the D that are in key positions. Turner, Young, Lake, Durant, Jones, Brown.....they are all on rookie contracts but are really playing at if not aby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
spending money is only part of the equation. What's failing to be recognized it although the D is way behind in overall spending is the fact that they were able to hit on so many prospects in their draft class. They essentially are being paid nickles to the dollar for Turner, Lake, Young, and as yet Jones as well as Kendricks, not to forget Taylor, and Durant. If they add 2-3 more rookies to thby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com

I wouldn't move on, still draft a QB (in the low rounds, UDFA area, but I wouldn't throw him out the door. You dump him you get/save nothing. He's a player that A: he doesn't pan out B: He makes the team and becomes a 3rd spot developmental guy C: He comes on in the Spring/Summer and challenges for a roster spot.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
in the sense that players you have under contract (towards the end of them) retire, but with the ability to come back due to still being under the contract start laying out all year to just come back in time for playoff games or to secure spots.

I did the same thing when I was 9-10 years old. I sent letters to Deacon, Jack Snow, Roman Gabriel, and Les Josephson....they (The RAMS PR) sent me back B/W autoed pics as well....Over time I only have the Gabriel and Snow pics left......I think as time went on I put them in Sports Illustrated mags to keep "safe".....you know how that went......Had the issues like the Lakers 33 in a roby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
they want to go to the draft for Edge....they always did....IF a guy was there and they wanted to go that way they would have gotten the money by moving money around. Again it looks like the fans want the FA players and if the RAMS don't get them it's because of this or that....Thinking that If I as a fan want them the RAMS want them too.

means IMO that he's still there to pick up. It's not even Draft Day yet. Then you have off time, OTA's Mini Camps, Training Camp.....That's really a lot of time for him to be picked up. He isn't IMO ruled out from us just because we signed JimmyG. That was IMO a rather cheap signing......There is a bunch of guys sitting out there, and more to come with cut downs in the future.

Isn't he getting some guaranteed money from them? I think that would have enticed the RAMS to look at/sign him. I watched his press conference on You Tube.....I just didn't like him, he seemed kinda fake to me.....can't put a finger on it.....I could swear when he talked about missing the 1st 2 games he said something like...I hope we get 2 w's and when I get back we go from there.....IF that'sby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
as their base . I know that Shula has been around the 3-4 system, but with AD gone now would be the time to do that. Will they stay 3-4 base, but show 4-3 more? I think they'll stay status quo so to speak, but if a change were to happen it would/could be now....I guess the best person to answer this stupid question would be Youngblood 53....by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
they have not spoken to any of them......who have you heard they brought in/talked with who then signed elsewhere? If they have not brought anyone in it's because they are more interested in looking at the draft? Just because a lot of fans want them to get this guy, look into that guy doesn't mean that that's the way the RAMS go. IMO the Edge spot has become one of the highest priced jobs.

IMO what you need to start thinking is that a pass rush doesn't ordinarily run through a DT.....The RAMS had a rare BEAST with #99. There are 32 teams in the league, everyone 1 of them tried to find their version of AD. Some DT's play in a similar mode, but just don't have that "IT" that he had. Where I am going with this is, they need to start getting pass rush in more normal waysby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
