On this defensive line. I'm excited to see how this plays out with the new DC schemes.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com

You nailed it, Speed. I felt an older and wiser Snead at the helm last night- exploring the possibilities, but not being seduced by having to follow this riverboat persona he's stoked in the media. Explore the deals, but don't give up the boat to reach the desired ends. Last night may have been "boring" for us, but very productive. And like you say, "mature". I love it.

When they showed that one shot of McVay in the house, he looked PO'd. Still bitter over Bowers. Yes, very glad Coach was saved from himself. Would have been like buying a gas powered vegetable peeler.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Was really happy we let the draft fall to us as well. We lucked out and get a guy many didn't expect to fall this far, and didn't get cute in the process. We can go into round 2 still holding all of our draft cards.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Was so worried we were going to trade out, but we stay put and get a stud. Snead getting more disciplined with age...by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Don't get cute, just let the draft come to you. Can't believe that's how it played out.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Nailed it. Other than maybe Alt, I just don't see a guaranteed star that would make the trade worth it. And considering the play last year, is upgrading that position a requirement for us making a deep run in the playoffs this year? Or should we just wait and take the guy who can pressure the QB without having to give away picks?by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Amen. If we "Rapp" ourselves again, I will not be happy. I don't know how many times we have to do this to ourselves before we learn- let the draft come to you, and execute. Last years draft hasn't wiped away years of muscle memory.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Draft day has always been an event at my house, and that goes back to the early nineties. Now my boys are grown, but they'll be here tonight for our yearly ritual. Can't wait to get this started.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Got roasted here a few months back for saying the same thing about Deebo as stated in this article. Most of his action takes place in August, and they gave him a lot of money for one good year of production. Glad to see that money tying them down here. Aiyuk is a good, not great receiver, but he's going to cost someone a lot of money. And on that team, Deebo set the bar. I doubt there will be a tby Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Considering who started for us last year, we've definitely upgraded our backfield. Significantly. Like everyone else, it's all contingent on staying healthy. That doesn't take away from what our own Less Snead said about the fact that we were unable to sustain enough pressure to help those guys out. Yet no moves to address that in FA. I'll be sorely disappointed if we pick WR or QB instead ofby Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Great point. I was upset that we took Holt over Bailey, but he won us more games than Champ ever would have. And I think Champ was the better player. People expecting us to go heavy D in this draft are going to be disappointed.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com

I think so as well, 43. This team as a whole has developed their approach and improved, and this draft will be very telling if the '23 draft was by design or chance. I very much hope for a grounded approach, but we will see.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
I remember his draft report saying that he may not have had all of the athletic gifts, but was a ten year plug and play starter. Check.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
We'll, the last trade down we made wasn't impressive, and we also own the biggest trade down whiff in draft history, so sorry if I'm not a big fan of that, regardless of the analytics. I hope we don't get cute. We're in a good spot to just let the draft come to us.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Man, as much as I don't want to pick WR at #1, trading up for Harrison excites me. I'd be down.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
OJ brings back bad memories of the riots. The one after his verdict was a knock off of the '92 riot, and I was working on a crane truck on Normandy right down the street from where Denny was pulled from his truck. Dark days.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
I knew he seemed to be chasing in coverage a lot, but these numbers are crazy. Should be an easy fix there...by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Alt might be the best player to come out of this draft. If we could get him for the cost outlined in this article or close, I'd be all about it.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Bruce on his knees with tears streaming down his face after that first win over the 9ers in '99. So much emotion. So many years of losing. I was crying with him when he brought that home, and will never forget the moment.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
You can see the lightbulb turned on with Avila. I think he's gonna grab this with both hands and the Rams are going to field a sick, scary interior O line. I get goosebumps just writing that.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
Putting him behind Staff and Jimmy G with nothing to do but get strong and learn the offense? Nice. But who does that anymore?by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
He only wanted out if they didn't hire the interim coach, which they did. That ship has sailed.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
It matters what the front office knows and thinks. Sucks that we have nothing but conjecture to base our opinions from. All I know is that whatever it was, it knocked him out of last season, and I'd like a #3 QB without the issues or drama.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
I know a lot of us think Wentz has more upside, but I think this was a McVay move and he totally wanted JG after seeing he'd take a backup role. This is gonna work out well.by Old Goat - RamsFootballFans.com
