Quoteferragamo79 I highly doubt you do either......some players coach may pick, some GM...who knows . The Rams are very open about their drafting process, and many members of the organization (coaches, Snead, Demoff) have spoken about it at length through the years...plus at different times reporters have been embedded in the process and allowed to write about it afterwards.

QuoteDeadpool I have read stories from scouts that have said some teams do have minimum standards for certain player measurements. I was just curious if anyone knows if the Rams have a profile with the minimum standards or if they go more by what they see on tape and in workouts? The reason I ask is this: I like Evans as a T or G, I prefer him as a OT, he played both tackle spots and his arby zn - RamsFootballFans.com

Quotemerlin Namely that they think they have their LT of the future on the roster. If they didn't feel that way I don't think they make that move, because Whit is running out of time and they are not going to risk their young QB's blindside. Now maybe they're wrong. And Kromer has taken a hit with the play of Boom & Allen this season. But given how well Edwards & Evans played I don'by zn - RamsFootballFans.com
Quoteferragamo79 He brought in Whitworth and Sullivan in 2017 and immediately transformed the O line. I think you would agree Whitworth was a tremendous signing. as we all know the draft can be hit and miss. for every Edwards and Evans, there is Demby G. Robinson A. Donnal C.

QuoteDeadhead Ram Whitworth's time is fast approaching and not sure Noteboom is the answer at LT. As you know I see it as both NB and Edwards as LOT prospects. But as you say, do you count on it? But if they draft OL (which they undoubtedly will) it's now looking less like scrambling to fill a hole and more like adding to a developing strength.by zn - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotedzrams Under the 'Dead Money & Cap Savings' column on the right, select 'trade' instead of 'cut'. You should see that it shows a savings of $4.65M. People learn stuff on the internets.by zn - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotedzrams You know who else can be traded after this season for a savings of nearly $5M on the cap? Gurley! Also Higbee. If he were to be traded it would free up $6.25M. The moral of the story is that cuts are often very harsh on the salary cap and not feasible but trades are doable. from This indicates an 8+ M deficit if traded in 2020:by zn - RamsFootballFans.com
Quoteoldschoolramfan I can see both being hired by the Rams this off season. McVay is very loyal to these 2 coaches. Gruden, because of the family connection and the fact that Jay's brother John hired McVay for his first NFL job. Callahan, because when McVay worked for the Redskins, McVay and him worked closely together with OL/TE's, so it's a natural fit. I like this combo hire! Tby zn - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotemax Quotezn QuoteRams43 But I think that there may be reason for some optimism. Not saying that they all blew the doors off, but this was the 1st time together at these positions for 4 of them. FOUR of them. Think about that. I think we definitely have our present and future RG in Edwards. Don't get too hung up about which positions they will play. This is Kromer, that can change.

QuoteLos Angeles Lenny The reason I want Bortles to play if the season gets out of hand is to show case him, I think the "perceived tutelage" that comes with being a McVay disciple is worth draft choices for us. No I didn't get that. I misread things online as often as anyone else. I'm glad you think I'm smarter than that though. In fact I am very flahtehrred.by zn - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotedzrams Focusing on the word "perfect" is getting caught up with semantics. Basically the charge was that the only times he did well was when he was surrounded with very good to elite units. . Yeah but that's what I am disputing. See what I am claiming is that the OL play earlier in the season and against Pitt had reached the point where it was far from just not being good.by zn - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteClassicalwit Didn't he have a pretty good year for the Bears last season? And I was under the impression that his stats so far this season are pretty good too. He has 5.5 sacks, 4 FRs, 1 FF, and 30 tackles. Not like 2018 but active. The point is not that he didn't do well. The point is that the Rams shut him down.by zn - RamsFootballFans.com

Quotedzrams When I say that Goff needs things to be perfect for him to do well I'm not saying that based on his 2019 performance. I say that based on his performance last year. He didn't have a collapsed OL last year. The OL struggled against physical fronts but they were healthy and still much better than what we've had this year.

QuoteRams43 Quotezn QuoteHazlet Hacksaw Its just hard to separate what is him and what is the line - that's hard to do. I will go further than you.

QuoteLos Angeles Lenny But if we lose tonite I would play Bortles. Who played poorly behind the Jagz line when it was a mess? You don't escape OL issues by changing qbs. That just means a different qb is being dragged down by the OL.by zn - RamsFootballFans.com
