I'd gladly give Stokes a shot next year.

Y'all know I loved the McClendon pick because he honestly reminds me of a mini-Havenstein. Very technical, understands leverage, surprisingly powerful for his weight. He's probably made huge gains.

Leveston may have to wait a bit...but I think he could be really good as well. Played left tackle at K-State next to Beebe at left guard. Obviously, he's not going to be a left tackle in the pros, and Beebe obviously helped a lot, but he's a big guy who has solid feet and powerful hands.

I'm stunned Limmer fell to us. I was glad they picked Davis, happy that we drafted Karty, ecstatic that we drafted Whittington (you should've heard me in my room; I was screaming like a Justin Bieber fangirl when we picked Whittington), but Limmer should've never been there; they could've picked him at Brennan Jackson's spot, and I'd have been happy with it. This sixth round could be our version of the 2023 fifth round.

Then you have the bubble players: Zach Thomas, Logan Bruss, A.J. Arcuri, and Mike McAllister, along with the UDFAS (Justin Dedich and Blake Larson), and Grant Miller (who I...just don't see it with him). I figure one of them is going to make this roster and maybe one or two will make the practice squad. McAllister, I don't think has a shot with us...but if he impresses, I'd definitely trade him for a conditional pick or another potential bubble player at a position of need (cornerback or inside linebacker).

It feels like a pass rush of Donald, Turner, Fiske, Young, and Verse would be the best pass rush we've seen in well over a decade.

Without a doubt. Hope we get to see it in the playoffs too. Never know.

I believe Blake Larson was also in the drills.

That’s pretty good Loyal - thanks for that

People saying the AFC West floors me. They have two teams that are going to be bad, and then one in the Chargers who is probably a year away, while the Chiefs are ready to have a good regular season for the first time in a while

Not saying that it was, just saying the Covid excuse is just that...an excuse.

Bigger issue will remain and that's NIL.

Maybe but that has to eventually even out. Then it will get back to the norm of some drafts being deep and others being very shallow. In some years even round 1 ends up not having many stars come out of it.

This. If I'm his agent I'm telling him teams needs to be his primary focus this season to ensure he makes the roster.

Easier said than done.If that was the case he would have already been a head of the game.The New Rule will hurt his chances of making The Rams roster.

isn't the Falcons QB situation actually better than the Rams, with respect to the plan of progression? And that's because they took Penix

Definitely.
If Cousins quits tomorrow or gets knocked out for the year, the Falcons have his replacement. At least a potential replacement.

If Stafford goes quits after this season or gets a lengthy injury, we’re screwed.

It's totally weird, I went back to university in my late 40's and only learned the rules after that. Everything I learned is n a separate file in my brain that I must purposely access to remember, which I rarely do on this forum.. I only remember when in editing mode.

Keep doing you. It's fine. We enjoy it.

If it only made that much sense sometimes.

Heard a guy on Cowherd today he was a College football guy forget the name but Colin asked him to describe Fiske and he came back with Maxx Crosby with a DT's body.

I expect us to run the ball a lot with Williams and Corum from mostly 11 personnel packages as usual. Kupp and Nacua are great at running blocking so keeping a lighter box will be an advantage.

I'm hoping for a revamped fearsome foursome respected defense, A talked about defense as a whole in the league. I also am hoping for a running game personality followed by efficient QB play. A proficient kicking game and renewed special teams play. great clock management in game and again, league talked about Rams team no one wants to play, you know like the chiefs...... too much? go rams.

I think a stronger committment to the run game and more success as a result of the beef inside, combined with better red zone play will be almost as good for the defense as Verse, Fiske and the rest of the 'new' players. As always it'll take a couple/three weeks to hit stride but I'm anticipating a much stronger team and an improved defense quicker than last year.

Let’s hope he’s up to the challenge! A lot is riding on him.

Rodger Godell?

Think the guy with the "l" swapped for the "n" in "Donte Hitner's" surname. I'm Jewish and trans, so I make it a point not to mention his name. Maybe I'm just spiteful.

But that's enough about that. Someone also did Joaquin Phoenix's Joker as well for this. But I still prefer Snead to everyone else, and I'm hoping they do McVay here sometime soon.

I think NFL Teams should get picks for placing ALL HCs not just minority HCs.

For the record, my feelings about the guy predate his absence/issues. Here was my comment when he was drafted:

Sure hope the Johnny Manziel vibe I get from him is misplaced.

They better play "Get the 'K'arty Started" when he comes out for FG attempts.

It was his mother & Jourdan reported when she talked to Karty’s parents his mom said I hope the Rams draft him because he would be a perfect fit. Moms know best!
