QuoteRockRam And giving Stafford a new contract (going to be humongous especially if we win the Superbowl)? And signing Von Miller? And keeping someone at LT? And another Olineman? And keeping at least a few people in the secondary? 43, this isn't an issue of what we want; it's an issue of how to make it work under the cap. Expensive 3rd WRs is the epitome of luxury.

Quotemerlin It's just not. Prior to Woody getting hurt there were rumors he wasn't happy with his targets. Probably some smoke there. What do you think will happen with Odell having another camp? I think next year in this offense Odell would be insane, with that full camp here on top of the timing he's got with Stafford already. He would in fact be our WR2 which relegates Woody to even lessby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotealyoshamucci He should fetch us a 5th I'd think, maybe even a fourth if someone overbids (I'm lookin at you Staley) To be fair, a large part of those increased tackles was because we couldn’t get off the darned field due to Morris’ soft zone crap early on. It’s kind of a misleading stat unless taken in full context.by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRockRam I think there's only one job opening left (New Orleans) and it's highly unlikely this would go to Morris considering who seems to be in the running. So it looks like while the Rams will lose an OC (again) they'll at least have continuity on D for 1 more year. I suspect the Saints will go with an offensive minded coach if it's an outside hire. But, they also might hire from in hby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteRockRam I realize this is all opinions. OBJ was OK coming here as the #3 WR to get himself, hopefully, into a big payday for next season. It couldn't have worked out better for him with Woods being lost for the season within 3 days after OBJ signed. He's blossomed. Now in the Superbowl where he's likely to do well because there is no way Cincy is going to not double team Kupp every down.by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteRockRam Every position can't be a priority. In the NFL, and very much so for the Rams, OG is a revolving door. They value Center and OT as do most NFL teams. I do agree that the Rams will not spend money on Allen with Shelton available. Little if any drop off. They'll want to secure LT, and then figure out what they want to do at RG. I suggest it'll be an in house competition with myby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

I’m not giving up on LA Rams DB Darious Williams just yet by Bret Stuter The surge of LA Rams defensive back Darious Williams performance in 2020 defense was astonishing, just as is his fading away into anonymity this season. Something has changed, and many are puzzled by that drop. But before you grab your torches and pitchforks to mark on Castle Raheem Morris, let’s pause, take a deby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Here’s Merlin… Signing Allen just feels risky to me Boni. Dropoff from him to Shelton is minimal so Shelton can hold it down one year while they work a new dev center. This team is dedicated to drafting and developing on the OL. It's not a bad strategy given how NCAA teams don't really teach like they used to. Kind of boring too for us at least, because we can't see how these guys perform iby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

Excellent post, Rock. Even now I’m not sure that Snead and his scouts receive sufficient credit for finding so many late gems AND, just as importantly, these Rams asst coaches get enough credit for quickly polishing those gems. Helluva synergy that makes Snead’s ability to trade 1sts for stars possible.by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteSoCalRAMatic I think Stafford is hurt. What aches him? Dunno. The thing about saying it's his throwing arm is that he makes a good amount of very strong throws. Those darts he's throwing seem to indicate that all is well. But, on the 50 plus yarders they seem short. Might mean he's not stepping into them enough. Might be the wind. Maybe he's going to need multiple surgeries after winning theby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

It’s possible that Rapp may fetch some kind of modest trade compensation. Probably very modest, but he does have some value if used in a specific role. But I definitely agree that Scott has seized that starting role over Rapp for next season. I’m thinking that Fuller/Scott could be a very versatile and effective duo next year. I don’t think that Scott and his coaches can be praised enough fby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

Here’s AppeasFBIGods… I can't stand that a lot of the media is saying the same old story about Stafford. He can play if he just avoids the "boneheaded mistakes." He just needs to play a clean game... Etc. The rams passing game struggled for a few weeks mid season and the offense turned it over too much. This included some bad pick sixes. other than that stretch, the passing game is oby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
