Not this year. Since the NFL/NFLPA agreed to carry 80 last year, they have set up to interim roster cut dates Aug 17 - roster must be 85 Aug 24 - roster must be 80 Aug 31 - roster must be 53by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
If the team won't play 35 players, then the only fair solution is to discount preseason game tickets by 40 percent.by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
Looks like the Rams will be sitting all the starters, anyone with an ouchie, and the players who just arrived to the roster 35 players sitting? Wow. At some point, due to roster cuts, they won't be able to keep that going.by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
Read this article, and then had to go see for myself. The LA Rams have John Daka as a defensive tackle on the depth chart... All in all... it's kind of funny if you think about it.by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
When I think of beer drinking fanbases, I think of the Northeast, the Southeast, and the South. I like a good beer, but didn't know we consumed so much...by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
LA Rams fans are among the Top 10 NFL fanbases in beer consumption. It stays hot in Los Angeles, so an ice-cold beer makes sense.by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
Today the Rams waived punter Brandon Wright and defensive back Jovan Grant. They then claimed DB Tyler Hall off waivers from the Atlanta Falcons (connection to DC Raheem Morris) Hall is an NFL experienced gunner, and will likely be used by the Rams as a gunner in coverage units. Finally, the team claimed OT Ryan Pope off the Arizona Cardinals waiver wire. He's been on 5 different Nby HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
Bobby Evans was a promising college offensive tackle. I don't think he is suited to move inside to offensive guard. Of course, now what will the Rams do with him? That is a huge question.by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
I'm not sure that this was all "Corbett struggling at center, better get Allen in there" type of decision whatsoever. The LA Rams pulled starting RG Austin Corbett to OC to replace Austin Blythe and then promoted Bobby Evans to RG to replace Austin Corbett. If either Corbett or Evans struggles, then they have to undo those decisions. The Rams had one vacancy on the offensive lineby HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
I have a background in healthcare, so this all makes sense. Unlike the physical nature of a joint injury, an emergency appendectomy is medical in nature. The antibiotics prescribed to clear out any residual infection can be quite potent and have lingering dietary effects. The body needs two weeks to heal, and then more time to get back to a point where putting pads back on and taking shots onby HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
Stu Jackson @StuJRams · 6m Sean McVay said an ankle issue prevented CB Darious Williams from practicing today. McVay also said WR Van Jefferson is dealing with a COVID-19 situation that he expects to be a false positive. Jefferson's second test came back negative.by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
I think that there is more afoot here than Corbett vs. Allen. I suspect that all of this shaking out at center is because to put Corbett at the center, the Rams had opted to put Bobby Evans at right guard. The pads are on now. I wasn't sold on the OL as constructed. Looks like the Rams are second-guessing that now too.by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
What time does SoFi Stadium open? The SoFi Stadium doors open typically 45 minutes before the event on August 14th, 2021 at 7:00pm. Fans attending NFL Preseason: Los Angeles Rams vs. Los Angeles Chargers will want to arrive at the venue 30 - 60 minutes early to find parking near the venue.by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
True enough. But the RFA aspect only kicks in with the extension of a Qualified Tender Offer. It's highly unlikely that the Rams will attempt a 1st or 2nd round qualifying offer on undrafted Troy Reeder, unless he has a Pro Bowl-like season (I doubt that happens) The Rams could and likely will re-sign Howard. Sill, I think I read somewhere that Morris loves those ILB/DB hybrids. Gervase maby HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
There's been a lot of discussion about the LA Rams vulnerable ground game this year. This is a pretty good article about why it can all work out just fine. Even though many expected Cam Akers to deliver a lot of production in 2021, he delivered just 625 yards rushing for the season, and 2 touchdowns. The Rams do not need to replace Cam Akers on offense. The author talks about how the team merby HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
You make a good point. But we know that the Rams don't invest in re-signing ILBs, and that four are on expiring contracts. Moving Gervase (6-foot-1 212 pounds) may simply be the Rams being a bit proactive. Get Gervase to ILB, move him to practice squad, have him ready to compete for the 2022 role at ILB. The Rams will be focused elsewhere to re-sign players. So Young, Reeder, Howard, and Kby HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com

I didn't get to read the article, because I don't subscribe to the Detroit Free Press, but I did link their tweet about the guy. They liked him "...Drake Jackson, one of the smartest NFL rookies I've met, has a good shot at Lions roster...":by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
The LA Rams love to work the waiver wire this time of year, so I could see the team putting in a claim for center Drake Jackson. He got a lot of solid press in his time with the Detroit Lions, who cut him because they are already good with Frank Ragnow there.

Jacksonville Jaguars boards have been talking about Minshew's trade value for months... "With the trade market dying down at this late point in the offseason, it’s not yet known what the Jaguars might be able to get for Minshew in a trade. Well, at least until now.

Agreed. He was trying to impress the coaches of the Cowboys too, are are in a bit of flux trying to decide who their starting center will be. Conner Williams is fighting hard for a roster spot.

The LA Rams are not in an enviable position with their current backup QB spot right now Per the author, that can be fixed in one of 3 ways almost instantly 1 - sign a recently waived QB 2 - sign a veteran FA QB 3- Trade for a QB It's 3 solutions with 6 proposed QB candidates.

LOL so true. And the more $$ he gets, the better the comp pick award in the following year's draft. Win-Win.by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
The LA Rams won't be using starters in preseason games, so the joint practice today (Saturday) with the Cowboys will be the most inter-squad competition that the starters will see before the regular season. The article touches base on ILBs, TEs and OL. I would probably add OLBs and RBs to the list.

I'm not sure Wolford is back after just 10 days. Even with laparoscopic surgery, it's 10-day minimum to return to normal everyday functions. Playing in the NFL is a bit more than that. I'm figuring that Wolford misses all preseason games, and that is a huge blow for the team about to entrust him as the primary backup QB.by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
I get what Gardner Minshew is saying, He's a fairly young quarterback who is still entering his prime. But I think he would view backing up Stafford much differently than backing up a rookie quarterback.by HornsUpRamily! - RamsFootballFans.com
The LA Rams have pulled rabbits out of the hat in the past. Time to pull another rabbit out of the hat. Getting Gardner Minshew on the Rams roster for a 6th or even 5th round draft pick would be huge right now...
