QuoteRFIP That for a guy who is super fast and has put up big numbers...he's on his third team? Oh we can explain it away if we like but I'd challenge anyone to find as productive and YOUNG wr who has been so traveled... Watkins fits here as well, doesn't he?by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
Agree 43. I think our WR corp is very good now and dare I say better than it was last year with Watkins? Cooks seems to be a much better fit, by all reports so far. I like the way the group has varied skill sets. Sure there will be some tendencies that opposing DCs can look to exploit but overall I think that with the talent, variety of skills, along with the whiz kid McVay calling the shotby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
I was wondering if the Rams were going to come through on this. It makes that trade a good one now. OK, time to lock up Donald now!by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com

But I couldn't bring myself to watch it. That was a painful loss and I didn't want to relive it. I do still have it on my DVR though so maybe one day I'll get over it and watch it again.by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteRam_Ruler Doesn't seem that bad to me. You should get parts of the revenue that you create. NFL is the only sport that doesn't guarantee contracts to their stars And that is obviously because of the high injury risk factor. Plus the rosters are much bigger and they churn through players much more frequently. Nonetheless, I think there has to be a solution where players have some sort ofby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRinconRam I find it profoundly difficult to take an assessment of the Rams seriously when the words "Todd" and "Gurley" don't even appear once in the entire article. I was about to type in the terms "special" and "teams" but I didn't bother. Dismiss. Move on. Not only that, but that Goff was "serviceable."

QuoteAlbaNY_Ram What if the offense converts a couple more firsts downs a game and the defense gets a couple more stops a game ... then the offense will be able to run more plays! In 2017 the Rams ran on average 62.6 plays per game. That was 19th in the league. The top 8 team averaged between 66.1 and 67.5 plays a game. What if the Rams landed in the middle of that bunch: 66.8 plays per gby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotezn It's a mult-billion dollar industry and there are at best about 20 people on the planet who can play qb at a high level. If you and I were in a line of work that was that challenging and good performers were that rare we would get that kind of money too. Given that I tend to check my "contract spite" at the door when it comes to NFL players. .... IMO, Oldschool wby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotewaterfield The old "they know what they are getting into" since Eve gave Adam an apple and a football. My point is about fans because I firmly believe that if studies proved CTE was prevalent in most all players and their brains were degenerating rapidly to the point that football was in danger of being outlawed-we all would be in uproar about losing a sport we have come to love.by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotewaterfield Personally, I have yet to see a KO returner hurdle a tackler. OTOH the statistics of KO return injuries are indisputable. Truth of the matter is football-at any level-is a violent sport resulting in permanent injuries to a huge number of participants. In a sane world it would be made illegal. Nevertheless, I love it, you love it, everyone here loves it. My only point here is toby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
He's turned the league into a court drama. It's so litigious now. It seems that at least 50% of NFL news anymore is about this lawsuit or that lawsuit. That's what turns me off about the league these days.by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
According to a rough calculation with the trade value chart, they would have had to trade every single pick this year, plus a #1 next year to get to the value of the #2 pick. Not sure I'm buying it. I guess it's possible but not very likely.by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com

Without the likes of our board draft gurus I would not have a clue about any of the guys we picked. Thanks to them I feel really good about this draft, especially OO and Kiser.

I had posted my first 5 the other day: 1. Darnold 2. Barkley 3. Mayfield 4. Chubb 5. Rosen Got one right with Darnold and Mayfield switched. Oh, those poor Browns fans...by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
It'll be different with no 1st or 2nd for the Rams, but I still get into it. I love to see who goes where, the drama with trades, and even most of the commentary. What I don't like very much is when they start throwing out the gimmicks in announcing picks. I can definitely do without that. I'm looking forward to it!by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
Quoteoldschoolramfan Darnold Allen Mayfield Rosen Jackson Who do you think the Browns go with? My Pick..........Darnold. Agreed oldschool. I think they go Darnold. At #2 I think the Giants go Barkley. At #3 I think the Jets go Mayfield. At #4 I think the Browns go Chubb. At #5 I think the Broncos go Rosen.by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com

Did Snead take your lunch money at some point? :lol You bash him constantly for bad picks, made by every GM every year by the way, and don't want to give him credit for good picks! Ah well, to each their own!by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
