QuoteSpeed_Kills No they don't believe in him long term... They believe rightly or wrongly that Keenum can play in the short term Please define long term and short term in this situation Go rams!by dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotezn Quotedodgerram QuoteRams43 They're thinking Big Picture and Long Term, dodger. That's the short answer. They see a 15 year franchise QB in Goff, once he gets his feet on the ground. Lots of playoff games. Maybe a SB, or two. Such things are worth a lot of draft picks for a team already on the cusp. That's my take, anyway. So you think Fisher thinks Goff is the next MOntana,by dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteSpeed_Kills They actually really like Keenum and believe they can win with him for a minute That is the argument for NOT trading up for a guy like Goff Go rams!by dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteDavid Deacon Fisher knows that there will be rookie bumps in the road and he wants to win this year and take a more conservative approach in getting Goff ready.. If Fisher wants to win this year he should have kept the draft picks. Go Rams!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!by dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com
What this is : It is about Fisher and Snead not doing a good Job of bringing a roster together that can win NOW. They are always Building for the future. Again they are the youngest Team. The excuse for yet another Season without a winning record is already cemented. If they think this roster was good enough to win with Keenum there was no Need to draft Goff giving up all those picks.

QuoteGreatRamNTheSky They might sit him a year or two but keep in mind they do have two other QBs who can play in Keenum and Mannion. That is a luxury. Grits Yes, but a stupid luxury if you think you are Close to being a contender with some other holes on the roster to fill.

Quoteoldschoolramfan Quick has had his 3 years, time to move on. I would rather go with some new WR's because Quick has had his chance. Personally, I would keep my eyes on the cuts and bring in another veteran WR to go opposite Britt and open up some routes for the young WR's. I am not high on Quick but looking at the Options he still might be the better outside Option than the rookies atby dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteRockRam Spruce broke all his college records as a WO, not a slot guy. At the NFL Level with the superior talent of cbs I see neither Thomas nor Spruce being a weapon as outside guys. Go Rams!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!by dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteNewMexicoRam Another take I have is that the Rams are building, getter closer. QB, LB, and WR still have needs or at least more improvement needed. Can the Rams take a risk on alienating players who can take this team to another level while they wait on a QB to get established? If the Rams seem to be willing to throw a season or 2 away starting a not-ready-for-prime-time QB, will more estby dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteBilly_T QuoteSpeed_Kills Bradford is better than Bridgewater at least right now in development and he gets to work with Norv Turner. If the Vikings are as good as some think (and I think they are overrated) then this is a good move for them.... But very very costly Foles? They got Foles for Bradford, when the Vikes have to give up a #1 and a #4? I realize Bradford has a decent season uby dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRFIP First time in his career he gets to play with offensive talent!! Side note: they play the Eagles this year too. SB will go to a Team with AP and some weapons plus a great OC in Turner.

QuoteSunTzu_vs_Camus just has to be! Britt TA Spruce Marquez Thomas Cooper PS = Duke, Morgan Fox, Kush etc IMHO you keep Quick because he is the only other outside threat besides Britt.

Quotezn Quotedodgerram if the Rams really are close as Fisher and Snead repeatedly have said the loss of those picks is costly IF Goff can not provide an upgrade at the all important QB position for this team. To me that's just bad logic. Well, from your point of view it certainly is bad logic. But not from mine. In the NFL you usually have a small window to win a SB or make it deep intby dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteSunTzu_vs_Camus just look around the NFL...there are only a handful of QBs that stand out consistently...maybe a 1/3rd? Anyway, solid, w/upside QB play was the missing link for this team that has talent everywhere now and QB was decried as the missing link. Unlike the Titans, where they have a QB but no team around him. Would you rather have 52 good guys + 1 avg QB? Or 1 good QB andby dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteSunTzu_vs_Camus you said that. I said we won't be passing 30-35x per game...but we need to pass 20-25 and those passes have to be good.. THAT is why we drafted Goff. He will be better than Keenum & Mannion at doing that....later than earlier it seems. Same thought as drafting Gurley at #10...and waiting for him....cuz the talent is there and worth it when he's ready. Then call itby dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteSunTzu_vs_Camus so, it's not as dire as once thot...we might even have 2 4th rounders(1 extra 4th for McCleod). It'll be alright. Didn´t we give away the 3rd rounder too ? Or will be get a compensation pick in that round in 2017? Go RAms!!!!!!!!!!by dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteSunTzu_vs_Camus Honestly, if we had Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers...how would our offense be different? What the balls would hit our WRs in the chest more? prolly. Would we not hand off to #30 20-25x per game? Instead opting to throw 30x? nope. Our offense is made to do what it does. We are a defensive-based team which leans on holding an opponent to few points and scoring just eby dodgerram - RamsFootballFans.com

Quote21Dog QuoteSaguaro A lot of the frustration with Goff's apparent lack of progress goes hand in hand with the frustration with the franchise in general. A better track record might afford Goff a little more slack in some fans' eyes. So true. Many fans finally have run out of patience after all those frustrating seasons.Me included.

if the Rams really are close as Fisher and Snead repeatedly have said the loss of those picks is costly IF Goff can not provide an upgrade at the all important QB position for this team.
