is the true deadline, per your point: "If he doesn't report within a couple of weeks, then he loses an entire year towards FA eligibility."by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
Some good info here - McVay is always a pleasure to listen to. One of the key things he refers to is the number of reps Goff will get. The majority will go to Goff, unlike last year when they were split with Keenum and sometimes Mannion. I think LaFleur alluded to the lack of reps that Jared got last year as well. I think this will be HUGE. So at the end Keyshawn tries to pin down Sean oby RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
24 catches in 6 games with Goff is 4 catches per game, not 6. Just sayin'by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
To me, how does McVay handle adversity, both in game and afterwards. (Actually I'm not as concerned about afterwards which I think he'll handle well.) And if Goff is stinking the place up, does he ride with him or will he have a quick hook. Will Goff keep improving or hit a speed bump? Bouncing back from a bad loss as well as building consistency in a young team are things I'll be watchingby RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
You may have seen this article but I wanted to point out AD's quotes: Donald had effusive praise for new Rams coach Sean McVay (a former offensive coordinator) and veteran defensive coordinator Wade Phillips. Multiple times he praised McVay’s intelligence and relayed a story from early in the Rams’ offseason program. “I was itching my head about a play, a defensive play, and he came to me aby RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
That quote really sunk in for me on Bones. And you could tell he meant it. I loved the final "clap" when he said goodbye to the players. They bought in and we're still with him. Glad he is back running our "teams"by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
NBA, yep! MLB, of course. NFL? Nope. It's why NFL players are treated like commodities while other sports have to focus on the health of their players. The NFL is also the most brutal of sports to boot, and why so many of us like it. I don't know why entire contracts are guaranteed in the NBA and MLB but they are so far from that concept in the NFL that it has to carry weight in these conby RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
McVay values it - and speaks volumes to the players who remain. Ridding the team of GRob tells everyone in spades that no one just gets by, like under Fisher. Love that stuff!by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
IMHO you make the decision given the info you have at that time. New info afterwards doesn't factor in. Call it justification if you want, but it makes no sense to me to cry about spilled milk or 'what might have been.' GROB is gone for a 6th rounder and we move on!by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
It's hard to win games in the NFL. Not saying McVay is not a bright light cause he is. But it still may take time for this team to discover how to win games. Winning is not a given; nor is consistent play. And parity in the NFL is real.by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
TruJo did not have a #1 CB year last year. Can he this year? And the jury is still out on Kayvon holding the fort as a starting CB opposite him. Slot CB should be stout. And injuries will affect them all. To me, I think our CBs will determine where our D ends up being ranked at the end of the year. I say top 10 is the ceiling.by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
I would try tweeting Myles Simmons directly @MylesASimmonsby RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
I think McVay is removing TA from punt returning so that he can focus 100% on playing WR. Don't know if it will work, or even if it's worth a shot but it'll be interesting to see what transpires. And if it fails does Josh Reynolds become the new deep threat? Can't wait to find out.by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
It's great to be able to say You ROCK and thank you for your perseverance and effort. It's never easy but your effort may it all sweeter. Keep on grinding!! Thanks for keeping us all posted as it means a lot.by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
Rams' Lamarcus Joyner happy he pushed for move from cornerback to free safety Lamarcus Joyner, a slot cornerback, met with former coach Jeff Fisher to explain his absence from a training camp workout. The second-round pick in the 2014 draft was frustrated about his lack of a starting role. “I wanted a chance at something I wanted to do that I felt like I worked for,” Joyner said thisby RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com

“I’ll be honest with you — I think he’s a little more accurate than I anticipated. That got me excited,” LaFleur said. “Obviously, he’s got a big arm. Until you work with a guy, you don’t really know. Obviously I studied him coming out in the draft, and I knew he had some of the characteristics that you look for. He is a natural thrower. He’s tough and he’s throwing the ball with surprisingly, reby RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
Cooley's validation raised my expectations of what McVay can achieve as head coach.by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
So I've read all the posts on how this draft is on Snead and how Gerald Everett was not worth the 44th pick in the draft. And here's my take on it: It's all on McVay now. Remember what Chris Cooley, pro bowl TE said on McVay? Back in 2010, Washington Redskins tight ends coach Jon Embree abruptly departed to accept a head coaching position at the University of Colorado. Washington's startiby RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
Guess that you did not read my original post! So Schrager on NFL Network spoke about how McVay had Everett ranked HIGHER than some of the TEs picked ahead of him. We agree - its all good. Just had to bust your chops!by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
So Schrager on NFL Network spoke about how McVay had Everett ranked HIGHER than some of the TEs picked ahead of him. FWIW, Walter's Football had Everett ranked above Engram. O.J. Howard, TE, Alabama Height: 6-5. Weight: 249. Arm: 33.88. Hand: 10. 40 Time: 4.51. Projected Round (2017): Top-25 Pick. 4/25/17: Howard could be a top-10 pick in the 2017 NFL Draft as he is seen asby RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
and thus I say Snead stays because of it.by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
I would infer that they sign an NDA once they come on board. That way it's still enforceable upon leaving. It can also be tied to severance pay as well. The interesting part is that, having moved from StL to LA, what differences there are in enforcing Missouri NDA terms, now that they are in CA. A quick search says that NDAs are enforceable in CA, but they may have had to rewrite the originby RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
that's when we'll see if McVay/Snead/Demoff want any changes to how they scout etc.by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
That's the way I see it too. Would love to see both Engram and Zay Jones in horns!by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
Yep. I agree that it just makes sense on both sides. Said the same a few days ago.by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
Makes sense - Cowboys are in a Win NOW situation, and just lost 2 CBs to free agency. Plus the NFC East added Brandon Marshall (NYG), A Jeffrey (Philly) and Terrelle Pryor (Wash). With Romo departing they would have the cap space to do it. Seems like they need a long CB who can make an impact in 2017.by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
beacause that 3.5M bonus is to be paid by 3/21. But your theory holds water - may be why they matched early, so that they could negotiate a trade. After losing Gilmore, I thought they might trade Groh + a 3rd for TurJo, but Buffalo has only 18M of cap space.by RamsFanSince69 - RamsFootballFans.com
