Quote21Dog He was a relief from the Linny-Spags eras. He brought the Rams from depths of football hell to mediocrity. That said, he obviously wasn't the coach to get them above the mediocre level. Yes, from that perspective, he was like the Raiders getting Pete Carroll. He will make them competitive. I will add that I still think he built a great defensive and offensive line for McVayby kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
I was hoping we would get Milroe like in the second or third round. A lot of upside. And then we could figure out if we have to waste two pics next year on a QB. Or two more weapons. Oh well.by kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
They probably do like Milroe better already... But they would need to keep that in house and find someone to trade Darnold with before the deadline. And if no takers, they can afford to keep both for now.by kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteShecky When Kupp and/or Nacua were not hurt, I think DRob started in front of Atwell in all of those games. Plus, he may only have played a few snaps, if at all, Weeks 2 and 17. Just from the eye test, definitely D-Rob got more snaps. He was the true #3 WR in our 11 personnel. But apparently their targets and catches were similar so I guess we'll see this year if Tutu takes that spot.by kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteOld Goat Quotekw13 Stafford and Tutu were fine when Kupp and Puka were out. They were? I must have missed that part during the losing streak. In my recollection, the lack of connection caused us to overload Kyren, which also didn't work out. Nothing changed till after the bye, and Tutu's stats pretty much similar to the years he was just a back up. Stafford and Tutu have never really cliby kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com

After watching this, I went and watched Corum clips from college and there is no comparison. Corum is slower, follows his blockers and then makes some extra yards with this cuts. This guy is movin. He is finding small holes and really blazing thru them. I think we may have found a home run hitter. He will see the field for sure.by kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
Stafford and Tutu were fine when Kupp and Puka were out. I think it's more about McVay's play calls and Staffordz blankeys, which was Kupp for a few years, now Puka. McVay had O'line issues for a lot of the year and one band aid was to run quick throw plays. So he went with his goto guys, not deep throws to Tutu. Tutu did start to get his share towards the end of the year with someby kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotejoram Ramsey and a pro bowl te for Fitzpatrick sounds like dolphins valued fitpatrick more than ramsey More just a cap space trade. The Dolphins were kind of all in for a couple years with acauiring Tyreek and Ramsey, etc... but ran into the Tua concussions.

Traded and gets more money. Crazy. Would have only worked for us if they cut him and gave us a huge discount.by kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
I think we need to pass on Ramsey. We need to be prepared for a pre-trade deadline pickup of a tackle. Left or right.by kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
Not sure if their analytics has as much to do with it as just McVay. My 2 cents... I think the LB question is simply that, up until Saquon, it's been more and more a passing league for the last 20 years, and teams have gone away from establishing the run. Therefore less emphasis on using resources to stop the run. And for the TE, McVays entire philosophy is built around using receiversby kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com

Thanks for clarifying AlbaNY. Let's hope Stafford plays out his last 2 years. We can afford to eat $33 Million in 2027 if we have a 1st round pick at QB with a $15M average salary. (I assume we are taking the best QB in the next draft given our two 1st round picks and probably another 1st or 2nd in 2027). If we can pull the above off and transition the rookie either late 2026 or to starby kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
Something seems off. If we are paying him $84M for 2 years and his cap hit is $47/$48M for the next 2 years, why is there $33M in 2027? In the past, I had looked at his last contract, from 2022-2026 and it seemed we had already paid him about $120M of his $160M for that 4 year deal. And the articles act like we have to go back to the drawing board again next year? How much did weby kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
I will say, as to McVay's use of TE's combined with his red zone weaknesses... We threw TD's to Higbee in the last game of the season vs the Seahawks and vs the Eagles in the playoffs. And it was the same play. And and I want to say it was the same play to him vs the Jets a few weeks prior as well. Point being, yes it worked, but I honestly was almost embarrassed as, at times, it seby kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com

I know he was injured but when he came back I thought he played pretty solid. I've never been a huge fan. He's not top 10 but he's somewhere in the middle. But at the same time I just don't see Ferguson playing ahead of Higbee?? Yes, 12 personnel two tight ends,maybe. And I get that we don't want to sign Higbee after this year.

I think this is really good for our team. The humanitarian stuff is definitely great. I know that was a big reason they are there.. But from a football perspective. The bonding of players.

I would say McVay's biggest weakness is that he is a control freak. He is doing too many things and should let his OC call the plays. We never seem to be on the pulse of when to pass, when to run, etc...by kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
Perfect!by kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
He was just the low man on the todem pole if we needed money. All of our corners looked better last year with a consistent pass rush. And all of our corners looked like trash the year before. I think Kendricks is solid, aggressive, often over aggressive, but we didn't really get to see him with last year's pass rush. Anyway, I was glad we had him for depth, now we don't.

I'm happy we have Devante. Kupp lost a step and was out, injured quite a bit. He became a liability. A decoy, at best. He's on the Seahawks. We could have got something for him at the trade deadline last year. We should have. Spilt milk, IMO.by kw13 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRamfan21 Lack of LT depth, biggest concern. If Jackson goes down, we are big trouble. I agree. Even if Havenstein goes down we are in trouble.
