DL Marquise Copeland: 86.2 CB Grant Haley: 76.8 Haley for an UDFA has gotten a lot of playing time in the NFL. He had 12 starts and played in 31 games before this season. Haley ran a 4.44 s 40 at the combine at 190lbs. Maybe he is making the most of the opportunity and is carving out a role.

Matt Skura has 65 starts in the NFL which includes playoff experience. Skura is a 5-year starter with more than 12 starts at both LG and RG in addition to 39 starts at C. I would have to think Skura would be an upgrade to either Evans or 3rd string cheap Cologne/Kolone.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
Thanks for the laugh. "Don't drive like my brother" The end credits swelled with the names and titles of fictitious staffers, like their Russian chauffeur “Pikov Andropov,’’ customer care representative “Haywood Jabuzzoff,’’ and most famously, their law firm, “Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe.’’ To make the post Rams related I will add that I would like to see more short passes to Powelby Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
I can't believe Akers is pleased with that production.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
I absolutely agree. An NFL coach can coach speak all he wants to the media and fans but if your second-year, 2nd round pick is not active that action is louder than any words. Tutu was a healthy scratch during 49ers week. There is no use in trying to sugar coat it. UDFA Brandon Powell is the same stature, position and role. Powell is getting packages with the offense. McVay should just say Powellby Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
Allen might be back this week, right? Brian Allen was described on Sept 9 as being out 2-4 weeks + Edwards Edwards will likely be out of the concussion protocol. Noteboom Edwards Allen Jackson Havenstein should be a bit better. Maybe some ball control/protect the football.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
Guman contributed to those 80s teams. He cleared the path for Dickerson. Blocking matters. FB/TEs matter in run blocking, pass protection and pass receptions. I hope Skowronek found a meaningful role in the offense and continues to thrive.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
Skowronek is not built like a FB, but he is productive as the lead in the I formation. He is built like an H-back. It reminds me of Robert Holcombe playing both halfback and fullback. Skowronek's catch percentage is up from 55% last year to 77% this year. His snaps have gone up from 19% to 87%.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
Perkins might be able to do some damage with a swing pass or a screen. It's an interesting idea as an option to get Perkins in space with the ball in his hands.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
I did not realize Takk McKinley generated a holding call. That is good to know. He did so in only a handful of snaps. Grant Haley had a quick burst to the LOS on running plays. It seemed like he was quick to diagnose them and quick to dive in. Benny Skow, Blanton and Powell could bring some needed balance. As could Akers. That late game 53 yards on six carries in one drive was important.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
Kordell had 658 receiving yards 2,874 rushing yards and 38 rushing TDs as a QB/WR/RB. His first couple of seasons he had 235 yards and 293 yards receiving. In Kordell's second season in the NFL, he had 5 TDs rushing and 3 TDs receiving while only throwing 30 passes.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
Skow and Powell are contributing to the offense. I am glad Blanton is back. I am happy for him to have had a big play. video:by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
I was incredibly sad to lose Brandon Staley after one stellar season as the Rams DC. But Raheem has been an even better DC. Half your DBs are out, Von is gone, Leonard Floyd is dealing with knee issue and the Rams hold Murray/Kingsbury to FGs.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com

A lot of teams are using DB/LB hybrids now. Skowronek at FB makes sense as a counter to all these light boxes. Almost every NFL team seems to be playing the Fangio roof umbrella coverage. Run them out of it and when they creep up, take a shot. The run heavy I formation becomes the pass heavy 11 personnel formation in an instant. I thought it was the best Skowronek has looked.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
Wolf probably remembers it from the Cowboys in 2020 on SNF. But it sounds like they did so with an offensive strategy. Cowboys get weird with intentional safety, onside punt and Twitter loves it Great point about having Gay kick it.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
The Rams need someone who can take advantage of the attention paid to Donald. It was good to see how effective Durant was on the CB blitz. He has the quick speed to get to the QB in a hurry. Hopefully he and Floyd get healthy soon.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
That is good news. Ramsey has the length, strength, hands and speed to remain an elite CB. I could read his lips after the int. He was saying "Ho do you like me now?" Hopefully with this big play Ramsey is getting some momentum going in his game.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
The Rams loose two corners and still have Jalen Ramsey, David Long Jr, Robert Rochell and Derion Kendrick. I am missing Von Miller though.by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
Jackson had the 42 starts at LT at Iowa. He got some playing time as a rookie and the start today. Alaric is holding up and developing.by Rams Junkie - Game Time Forum
I like Skow lining up at FB. At 6'3" 224 he can block. He can also go in motion and all of a sudden, a run look I formation is 11 personnelby Rams Junkie - Game Time Forum

There is a 15 sec add at the beginning and then a 6 min video with some good information. For example, I did not realize that the Bills did not blitz once last week. video:by Rams Junkie - RamsFootballFans.com
