The Rams have done well via trades and FA signings, too. Especially since McVay became HC. My evidence? A 4-12 roster became a 13-3 roster in just 2 offseasons, going to the SB as frosting on the cake.by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

Rams checking out Maryland safety Darnell Savage with pre-draft visit Cameron DaSilva3 hours ago With Lamarcus Joyner on his way out, the Los Angeles Rams got in front of his departure by signing Eric Weddle to a two-year deal. The veteran is a short-term solution at a position of need, but he can’t be expected to stick around longer than the length of his contract. For that reason,by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Quoteoldschoolramfan I'm really surprised that he is still out there. I would love for the Rams to pick him up. Then, go OT/G in the draft. Are you concerned about Allen at C, oldschool? Or a possible C/G pick? Don’t think Blythe is an adequate C backup? Myself, I’d rather any outside signings be for our D backups until further notice.by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotealyoshamucci Likely late first, but I think Everett is better. All around. Better hands, better speed, MUCH better after the catch. I think Fant will be over drafted by 2 rounds. Should be a third rounder. Preach it, Alyo!by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
So you’re saying that there will be multiple players at multiple positions available for the Rams at #31? Lol. Heck, it sounds like that might be true even after a minor trade down? Just involves Snead and McVay sorting through a few warts and scheme fits? I’ll take it. As an aside, I think a locker room with the likes of AD, Brockers, Matthews, Littleton, Talib, JJ, and Weddle would beby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
At this point, is there really all that much difference between the top 3? Or top 5? Especially before the draft and possible trades? But I will say this. The Ram D is potentially gonna be bette rthis season than where they left off late last year, including the playoffs. If that proves to be true, then I really like their chances to go all the way.

Here’s Wildflecken... 1.) This is a very important offseason for the Rams and Les Snead is certainly taking full advantage of the Rams newfound preferred destination amongst the leagues veteran talent. Both Mathews and Weddle may of lost a half step athletically but both are talents whose veteran savvy should more than compensate here. Both are great fits in a Wade Phillips defense, especiby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

Quoteno name You lose a year while paying for them. You are essentially being ok with average players so long as they don't bust. Seems like a losing strategy. I see it far differently, no name.

Is he being serious? Or is it coachspeak? A smokescreen? Hard to say at this point. But if it’s a genuine clue? Let’s see... Might mean that OL is off the table at #31. OL players are rarely described as explosive. Might mean that a trade down out of our 1st is less likely. Wouldn’t explosive players be less likely to be found in the 2nd and 3rd rounds? Are DL players generallyby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Heaven knows that I’m no draft guru. And my guess is that Snead would prefer a trade down scenario if he can find a willing partner. But I will say this. I would never rule out a Snead trade up if a targeted player starts to tantalizingly fall. Especially after hearing McVay state that he wanted to add “explosive” players in this draft.

Look at theses players taken. A few got snaps during the regular season, but most seemed to be taken with the goal of strengthening and development in mind. And we might just get 3 starters out of that draft as soon as this season. Plus some other potential contributors, as well. Not too shabby of a ROI on such a loaded SB roster. Color me impressed with Snead and McVay.by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Pretty much par for the course for young TE’s. It seems reasonable for that trend to continue this season, don’t you think? Now, it’s conceivable that a “must have” TE might fall to #31, but it’s not likely. So, barring that, I expect our first pick to be DL or OL, maybe Edge. Or even a CB that slid?by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
