He got the big big contract. His friends are the Benjamin's. I'll always love him for helping us win the big one, but, come on.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Snead is really good at predicting when guys will be picked. The one time he screwed up royally was trading down when Bobby Wags was there. I think he'll know when the punter will be picked. Also, there's a few good punters. I don't see us punting either.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Glad it's deep when we have a ton of late picks.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Could be. I have a pet peeve about the article. The writer describes Hendu as a change of pace back to Akers. He is a very similar back with nearly identical size and weight and speed. Some prefer one over the other and that's fine, but there is no change of pace. When Michel was starting Hendu was a change of pace. I read this change of pace thing all the time, and it rarely applies. It doesn'by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Ya know, Clowney was a giant prospect. He had some great numbers. I used to follow the draft when we were picking high in the first round. Saw him do nothing in his final bowl game. Now, it could be that he was trying to stay uninjured , but he was much less impressive. Don't know where Snead values him, but I don't think it's high. I'm perfectly okay with him signing elsewhere. Give me Ingram anby SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
So, this kid have modest game tape and stats. He has average speed and explosive ability. And some how he is a third rounder? Sound like a fifth to me. Glad he is a hustler. But, I would rather see Lewis and Garrett than a mediocre kid.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Good read. I am hoping for the HB.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
I really hope you're right. He added a lot to our squad. He was going off in the Super Bowl. Kupp, OBJ, AR, Jeff, etc. Very tough.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Atwell doesn't continue to struggle. He got hurt and missed most of the year. SKOW did very well on special teams and had some bright spots filling in when Woods went down. Plus, we are most likely bringing OBJ back for the stretch run. I don't see any need at WR, except if you are really ready to call Tutu a bust bust. I know many here have done exactly that. And I get the frustration especialby SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
I think they have already worked out a deal and will break the news when optimal.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
So, much has been discussed regarding Snead's dealing away number ones and collecting comp picks, but, maybe this is part of the new strategy. Last year, after about two thirds of the season were spent we signed OBJ and traded for Von. We didn't have to pay their whole salaries. Von we got for two high picks, but Denver kept paying him so we got him cheaply. OBJ was released so we got him forby SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
I was wrong. The jet worked!by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
I prefer the Honey Badger. Whenever we faced him I was worried he'd make a huge play against us. If we sign him, I can cheer for him.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
They don't have a Kupp.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Um, probably every owner can send a company jet to wow a potential signee. Really don't see that being the motivation for him to sign there. The big salary cap room will have a lot more to do with it. But, if the Rams came in with a similar deal there's no way a vet would pick Indy over LA. I don't know if I even want him to sign with us, but if McSnead wants him he'll be a Ram.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Wow, this kid has a set on him. He stunk it up in the playoffs and now wants them to rip it up and pay him the big bucks?!! Amazing!!by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Okay. Thanks. Makes a lot more sense. If we draft a kid in the middle rounds we would save the cap difference too, right? So, then drafting a kid makes total sense.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
He runs a 4.36 40? And there's going to be 103 guys picked before him? The first paragraph I totally disagree with. Floyd plays every play. So, we have three guys on the opposite side who together need to play decently. Hollins, Lewis and Garrett. If they're all healthy then one starts. The other two are the positional backups. 4 OLBs is what you need. Will we draft this kid? Who knows? Sneadby SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
I don't believe that. Why would you sign a player and lose a third rounder when you can sign the same player and not lose a third rounder? That third rounder is a starter for us in two years.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
What is found interesting was I thought that this represented the Rams roster for money per position. A lot of those numbers are very close to where we are. The second thing which has just become the new reality is WRs making almost twice RBs. Years ago, the RBs were the big stars making the big bucks. Very few left. The TEs seem to get shafted. They are like OL, pass and run blocking against Dby SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
I don't think Hopkins has a leg up on Blanton. I also don't see either one being the second tight end, but rather, I see them sharing snaps opposite Higs. Hopkins wasn't drafted to be a blocker, but was more of a receiving threat. I think they could indeed draft another TE or maybe move Harris back there. SKOW could bulk up a little and play there too. I have to say, this position doesn't worryby SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
So, we signed a punter for more than a million. If we draft this kid, what happens to the vet? A team only has one punter and if we picked the kid we couldn't hide him on the practice squad. Does this make sense to any of you?by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
We lost the greatest punter in our team's history. He might be the best punter of all time. We picked up the guy who punted for the NYG. This could be a big downturn in ST.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Good point on Ancrum. He could be the surprise RG.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
I think it's time to lay off our ex-qb. Let's be happy with Stafford. He's easy to like and rose to the occasion like a HOF Super Bowl winning QB should. I am cheering for the Lions every game except when they play us. And I'll give you all one more last thought about comparing Goff in 2018 to Stafford 2021. Stafford had a better surrounding cast. Better weapons on offense and a much better defeby SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Very fun. Thanks for sharing it. I don't know if all these kids will emerge this coming season, but, they certainly could. Surprised that Tutu is not on the list. I think SKOW is over rated and only played because like everyone got hurt. SKOW makes mistakes on STs and drops passes on offense. We won it all despite this guy. But, he is young and got lots of experience so who knows? I don't thinkby SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
He paid more than 3 million over asking price? Maybe he's not so smart.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Learned nothing from this article. How about a reporter asking McVay or one of the D coaches about the team's thoughts on the youth at these two positions? Snead loves to be interviewed and usually tells the truth when he does them. So, I would ask, "how do you feel about Hollins, Lewis and Garrett?" "Are they fully recovered from their injuries? Who might be ready to start and wby SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
The problem is right now Sony is behind two RBs. Even if the money was the same he's going to go somewhere where he'll play. I don't see enough Carries for our third back. Certainly if no one offers him a job and he doesn't mind be a safety net for injury the Rams should sign him.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
Why would there be workouts that our Rams don't attend? I would think we would have a set of eyes at every college work out. Strange.by SoCalRAMatic - RamsFootballFans.com
