Alden Gonzalez ESPN Staff Writer One of the scenarios the Rams talked about heading into the draft involved OL Joe Noteboom falling to them at 87/89. The Rams like his athleticism, durability, and the fact that he has experience at both tackle spots. Rams GM Les Snead noted that Noteboom can learn from Andrew Whitworth, Rob Havenstein and Aaron Kromer and called it "a perfect situatby RamBill - RamsFootballFans.com

5 things to know about Rams third-round pick Joseph Noteboomby RamBill - RamsFootballFans.com
Vincent Bonsignore@DailyNewsVinny One other thing on #Rams pick of TCU OT Joseph Noteboom: there's a ton of respect in their building for O-line coach Aaron Kromer, who I'm certain chimed in. Between input he provided and the confidence they have in him on the development side, I imagine the conviction was realby RamBill - RamsFootballFans.com
Vincent Bonsignore@DailyNewsVinny FYI on #Rams 3rd round pick Joseph Noteboom, the OT from TCU. Gil Brandt,, who knows what he's talking about, had him ranked No. 72 on his big board. And, as Gil put it: "This I know: when you draft a @TCUFootball player, they're very well coached and will come in ready to play."by RamBill - RamsFootballFans.com

Rich Hammond@Rich_Hammond Linebacker remains a concern but I think Littleton, Ebukam and Longacre all have good potential. They must build some depth with tomorrow’s picks and UDFAs. Rams’ addition of Noteboom isn’t as “sexy,” as Les might say, but it’s probably smart. Rams had extraordinary luck in 2017 with o-line health. Whitworth is a freak of nature but he’s 36. Prudence wins out.by RamBill - RamsFootballFans.com

Joe Curley@vcsjoecurley Snead said "bringing in a 'let's call it' offensive lineman that we could develop for the future" was one of the scenarios they discussed entering the day. "When you wait until 87, there's a lot of players (discussed)." Some were there. Some were gone. Noteboom steps in behind Andrew Whitworth, with Aaron Kromer as teacher.

Rams GM Les Snead, asked specifically about the edge rushers who could be available to him in Round 4: "We're well aware that we're going to need some depth, probably at that position. But what you have to do, and stay disciplined in this situation, is follow the board within common sense." In other words, don't reach.by RamBill - RamsFootballFans.com

Myles Simmons@MylesASimmons McVay says part of drafting Noteboom is being able to add depth. The fact that Noteboom can play right and left tackle adds to his versatility. McVay credits Snead and his staff for the team's draft prep, as this was a scenario that they thought could happen and it did.

Eric Galko@OptimumScouting As I mentioned earlier, multiple NFL teams graded #TCU OT Joseph Noteboom highly. #Rams were one of them, surprised he didn't go earlier. They get an offensive tackle they believe can be a high-end swing tackle, and good insurance behind Andrew Whitworth.by RamBill - RamsFootballFans.com
Josh Norris@JoshNorris Love the Rams selection of Noteboom. Possibly planning for life after Andrew Whitworth. Hit elite 20 yard shuttle score. Jon Ledyard@LedyardNFLDraft Big fan of Noteboom's developmental upside. His drive-catch in pass protection is among the best in the class. Has to get stronger, but in a great spot to developby RamBill - RamsFootballFans.com
