just a clip from OTAs Week Two. Nothing special. Just for those of us starving for Rams football

First time since 2021 that I’ve felt really confident going into the season. Winning SB LX in SF will be the Rams greatest achievement
I was very confident last year. I thought they would win it all. Then the injuries hit Oline, Kupp, Puka. It sucked. They nearly won it all anyway. A few seconds from beating the Eagles and I think they could have routed KC just like Philly did.

I am just as confident this year.

It shouldn't come as any surprise to fantasy football managers that, like them, actual NFL teams are looking to find as many steals as possible in the 2025 NFL Draft, as they do every season. Finding players that vastly outperform what's expected of the average player at their position and draft spot has an immediate and lasting impact on their success.
Players like Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua, one of the league's best wide receivers, allow teams to make up for a lack of early draft picks or turn what would be a good draft into a historically great one. Nacua's performance easily made up for the Rams' lack of a first-round pick in 2023, and has been a key driving factor in the team's playoff appearances.
Nacua is an extreme example, but it illustrates how impactful a player that all but a handful of, or even none of, the teams are willing to draft near what value they actually present. For whatever reason, additionally, sometimes teams have doubts about players that are unfounded or aren't able to evaluate their upside accurately. We can dig up some of those players, so let's dive in!


Jarquez Hunter, RB, Auburn​

It's odd that a highly productive SEC running back is flying a bit under the radar this season. He's 5-foot-9 and 203 pounds (combined measurements), so it makes some sense, but he rushed 187 times for 1,201 yards (6.4 yards per carry), scored eight rushing touchdowns, and caught 21 passes for 155 yards and one touchdown.

The most impressive part of Hunter's game is his elusiveness, though his 4.44-second 40-yard dash was also intriguing. The film is pretty, pretty good as well, and he was an explosive play machine, only outdone by UCF RB RJ Harvey, someone I consider a top-3 running back in the class, in big play generation.

His tape is littered with example after example of him being very, very tough to get on the ground. Despite his smallish frame, he has the strength to stay upright while tacklers fall off of him if they take poor angles, and he has a pretty nice stiff arm. He doesn't have a lot of pass-catching upside, so he might not get a big role right away, but he could be a nice RB2 or RB1B option on quite a few teams.

Hunter's efficiency against such good competition alone should be a green flag. He's yet another back I'd take over Iowa RB Kaleb Johnson, who's likely to be a massive bust. Hunter is somewhat similar to Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving, but a bit less elusive with the ball in his hands, a bit bigger, and a bit faster. That's a solid player to have on your roster.


Shaun Dolac, LB, Buffalo​

Walking in the footsteps of former Buffalo linebacker Khalil Mack (well, sort of), Shaun Dolac is a highly talented Swiss-army-knife of a player who lined up often at the line of scrimmage, in the defensive backfield, and in pass coverage. His size is a bit concerning, but his play certainly isn't.

Dolac was statistically dominant, leading his conference in many categories, which is impressive. He was an All-American as well. His smaller size will likely be an issue at the next level, but he could carve out a nice rotational role. Good defenses typically put together packages and call plays based on their players' strengths and to cover for their weaknesses, anyway.

Dolac plays with a high football IQ and should punish offenses for missing their blocking assignments. He doesn't match up well with offensive linemen in the run game, but for where he'll be drafted, any production out of him for a few seasons would be a positive.

Peter King predicts NFL could do away with draft ‘in our lifetime’

There’s too much money and hoopla/spectacle around the NFL draft. No way.

If anything, they’ll add more rounds and days and more network gravy to the process.
Yup. Draft day is a money maker for the league and networks. And whatever NFL city its held in. No one wants to lose that cash cow.

10 Observations from Rams' first OTA practice of 2025 offseason program: Excused Puka Nacua absence

lol - sure. That’s obvious.The point is whatever his reason was excused.People will always be jealous no matter your blood type or spirit.

Puka is a class act.The Rams are promoting the Hawaiian Fan Base which is smart & great advertising.

The Lakers did it for years.
West coast teams bitch about traveling east, hawaii is the only state west other than Alaska lmao

There must be a way for west coast teams to beat jetlag, without going to hawaii. Put them on east coast time strait after previous match? I don't know how they try at the moment.

Rams Cb Emmanuel Forbes Feeling more comfortable

At least its not like they have a lot invested in him. If he doesn't work out its easy to move on. Nothing to lose. If he does work out, then great.

If you're a first round pick you have talent. He was pretty skinny coming out of college listed at 166. Depth chart has him at 180 now so he's getting bigger. At six foot tall he's got a little more room to bulk up. As long as it doesn't affect his agility and speed. I like the idea of claiming a guy like him. No risk.

Rams sign OT David Quessenberry


Article underscores Quessenberry's versatility, plus he was a fan favorite and many had good things to say. Kudos to @Allen2McVay for watching the games against the Vikings in the regular and post season and giving us the skinny on Quessenberry. IMO, considering that both Arcuri & McClendon both struggled last year at LT and RT and the fact Quessenberry has experience playing both positions, hard not to see this as an upgrade. And being from San Diego plus a San Jose St., alum, David is back in the Golden State.

What did the Rams pass on in the draft when they traded for Ramsey in 2019?

Nice job with Grok3. You got some AI skills. Football is tough with AI because football is so context dependent, so I am impressed.

Yeah, I was one of those that was worried about Brad Holmes being the brains of the organization. Glad McSnead proved that theory wrong.

Not too worried about the guy we lost to the Jags. I think he only recently started shaving.
Thanks for that, OnceARam! A lot of us are going to have to learn to use AI sooner than later. It needs to be doublechecked, though. The same day, I asked AI for a list of DIY stores in town, and it listed a store that's been closed for four years, so it still makes lots of mistakes.

I also thought Holmes might have been a key guy, and even though he has made some nice picks with the Lions, I think Snead is better. I like how the Rams are using GPS tracking to measure true speed on the field in full gear, not dudes running in shorts on a track. I also like their emphasis on character and love of the game.

Are the Jaguars making a mistake using Travis Hunter on both sides?

If they're smart, they focus on getting him ready at whichever position THEY see him excelling at quickest (ahem, CB), then bring him along at the other position.

However, I don't think Coen could lead bees to honey, so I am not convinced he will navigate this situation with any kind of dexterity. Also, I think Gladstone is a Temu version of McSnead. Fuck the jags....

Yeah, Coen’s personality doesn’t quite scream head coach.

This is the norm in high school. There’s not enough good players on most teams to play only one side of the ball. Central Columbia is right up the road from me. They have similar enrollment as our school. Graduating classes are around 150 kids. Some teams we played didn’t have enough players for a JV team. Our entire roster was made up of two way players and we were one game away from the state championship.

We were 3A. One 5A school we played had guys only playing one side of the ball. They had 4 D1 college commits and we still beat them. At the end of the game the opposing coach came over to my son and said, “You wrecked our entire offensive game plan.” I’m going to miss those Friday nights.

PFF podcast talking about Rams LBers

Stewart is perfect for the cheetah package the Rams ran last year with Hoecht. Five man front with the cheetah lining up in different places on the line sometimes rushing sometimes dropping in the hook zone area. I think he may be a better fit than Hoecht was.
I hope so. As soon as the announced him I said, “Hoecht’s replacement”.
