Re: 3 Kids, 8 Grandkids, 1 1/2 Great Grandkids - 16 days ago

Dude, you're old. I only have 1 great grandson. And unfortunately it now seems his USMC father is being deployed to the Middle East.

Re: My wife and I have 7 children - 17 days ago

I have 5 grandkids older than your youngest, 3 boys, 2 girls! We've been busy...well, actually my kids have, we only had two so they are trying to catch up to your family without me! The youngest just turned 16. haha

Re: If the NFL does THIS, then I'm done with them - 5 weeks ago

From the article it says: From the league’s perspective, there’s no evidence that a plan is in place to put one or more teams in Europe in the foreseeable future. The goal for now is to expand the number of permissible international games under the Collective Bargaining Agreement from 10 to 16...In lieu of traveling across the Atlantic Ocean twice in a given season, teams will get their Europe

What a wonderful essay! - 6 weeks ago

Some of the most thoughtful reflections I have read in a long time, Chuck. Just excellent. As a grandfather and now great-grandfather, your thoughts struck home as we remember those that have not made this journey with us. My respect and deepest thanks for sharing this with us.

Re: Nfl schedule rumors - 8 weeks ago

Isn't Dallas still "America's Team"? :rolleyes The last I heard, Houston is Texas' team but I still see too many Cowboy stars (old ones?) around.

Re: I'm not sure I believe the Furgeson narrative - 2 months ago

What coach or GM has ever said "We wanted xx player but he wasn't there so we took our 2nd choice in xx player?" No one wants to come into an organization as a "bridesmaid". If Ferguson was their choice regardless, who are we to question it? And even he wasn't, why would they want to kill his morale with some backhanded swipe? We got our guy, full stop. And he's a good one.

Re: I Think I've Finally Forgiven Kyren Williams - 2 months ago

I'm not that big of a man....heh. I forgive him too but I still traded him in FFL Dynasty for 1st and 4th round picks this year. Then flipped the 4th later with Anthony Richardson for a 2nd and 3rd. I love Kyren but there are so many great RB's this year that I felt I could replace him and let him break someone else's heart in fantasy. I think Hunter could take his job next year but McVay is so l

What an excellent read, DP!! Thank you, better than anything I will find on the internet. You are a treasure, my friend!!

Re: They either had him pegged or they really reached. - 2 months ago

He has a combination of size, athleticism, and receiving ability, very versatile with great hands. A strong skill set and produced against top competition and should probably contribute this year. He can line up in multiple spots and although his blocking skills aren't great, he's not bad at it. He's definitely a potential starting TE in the NFL, just needs to get stronger. I like the pick.

Agree 100%, our evaluators match any of the talking head pundits, easily. I trust DP and Alyo evals and use them every year for my dynasty league. They rarely miss. Thank you both, incredible work!!

Re: Rams still need to come out of this draft with QB - 2 months ago

Outside of Cam Ward, I think the rookie QB's are all future 2nd stringers at best. Sure, one or two might be developed into starters but across the board, the talent is not particularly strong. Stetson Bennett is equal or better than all of them and he's still in development and I doubt he'll ever be more than a back-up.

Re: The JAARS System use by the Los Angeles Rams for player evaluation - 2 months ago

JAARS is proprietary software so no, he wouldn't be able to take it. However he could, with his knowledge of it, attempt to recreate something similar. I suspect that most teams have some system like it already.

Re: I feel like Dart needs the Rams more - 2 months ago

I would wait and hope Kyle McCord falls to the 4th round.

Re: Let me help..lol Run to the - 2 months ago

I only know Fantasy so my annual focus is on offense only. But several of the players listed high seem to have some flaws that I will be avoiding for my Dynasty team. Golden is one of them. He's fast but had only 5.6 yards after the catch per reception in college and less than a 40% contested catch rate in two of his three seasons. That doesn't seem like a game breaker to me. Burden is more of

Re: Would you trade up for Warren? - 3 months ago

I might consider it since next year's draft class, from what I've read, is not expected to be very good outside of a couple QBs. And if Manning doesn't come out, which is also expected, then that makes it even thinner. But I'll leave these things up to our board experts on the 2026 outlook.

Re: Why the hate on our own players? - 3 months ago

A grand welcome to our new Danish friend. Bring some of your fine beer on your next trip! :beercan I have found that there are some posters that will exude a certain level of negativity toward players and the team in general when they are not playing up to a poster's certain standard. I also agree that it can be a bit agonizing as a fellow Rams fan however I also recognize it as simply part of

Re: I can't watch Ricky. (nm) - 3 months ago

I like Ricky's (Erica's) sense of humor and quick wit. I'm not a fan of hers but this video was a fun interaction between her and Jourdan.

Re: Who are your dream picks at 26? - 3 months ago

I didn't think Verse would be there either and was excited when he did, he was my preferred pick then if it happened. I would prefer Warren this year if some reason he fell there. Otherwise the ILB, SS or a WR like Egbuka.

Re: my latest Rams PFF mock. MY Mock with Burden - 3 months ago

Comparables aren't always accurate but they are helpful. The comp to Burden by most is Kadarius Toney. He's primarily a slot receiver in the NFL and he regressed last year as a junior from his sophomore season. I guess that may be more situational then skill set but he's also had some injuries and had several drops so his hands may need to improve. He's certainly quick though. If Egbuka is the

Loveland played for Harbaugh at Michigan. If they draft any TE in round one, I would be shocked if it wasn't him.

Re: Recent NFL draft fodder shows Rams could get abundantly rich in 1st round. (RR) - 3 months ago

QuoteRams43 Jordan Whittington showed flashes as a rookie, but he is still just a sixth-round pick and didn't exactly scream "starter." I get annoyed when a pro is judged by whatever round they were drafted. It doesn't matter but for giggles, some other players that were "just a sixth-round pick": Tom Brady Antonio Brown Terrell Davis Antoine Bethea Marc Bulger Puka

Re: Some thoughts on ILB for Rams in draft by LA_Rams_#29… - 3 months ago

Campbell is a projected mid-2nd rounder so I would expect he's there at 26 if the Rams want him. He's only 21 so he still has a lot of development needed but he looks like the best MLB in the draft.
