1st Round | Pick 10, Rams select: RB Todd Gurley

[FrankenRam]

Without massive upgrades to the OL this is as bad as Lawerence Phillips or Trung Candidate

You have GOT to be kidding. Phillips and Candidate were no good because.....well, they were no good.

I bet Tavon Austin is pizzed, Gurley is gonna take his carries up the middle away

 

[jrry32]

I'm good with it. Top 5 talent in the draft. My comparison for him has been Edgerrin James.

 

[Shawnbb158]

He will lead the league in rushing as a ram. Fish will let him get healthy then our great d with gurly running the ball. Championship caliber.

 

[RamsJunkie]

I FUCKING LOVE IT!

 

[Akrasian]

I want it to be known right off that I only support this pick if he turns out to be great. If he turns out to be a dud just remember I never supported it then. Say what?

Maybe a trade of one of the Rams other RB's is in the works? They are kind of log jammed back there now.

Thing is, Gurley will likely not be ready at the start of the season - unless he's rushed, which I don't think anybody wants. So they need Stacy more than they would likely get for him in trade.

Gonna go pray for his knee. If it holds up, then I really like our skill positions on O, because a guy like him can make everybody else better.

Now fix the OL, dammit.

 

[Afro Ram]

My feelings on this pick is going to depend greatly on the rest of the draft. I'm not going to complain about getting a stud running back to complement Foles BUT oline HAS to be heavily addressed in the rest of the draft.

 

[markstewart67]

I didn't realize we only had one pick in the whole draft!! Oline will come peeps.....chiiiiiiiilllllllll my Rams brothers.

 

[HE WITH HORNS]

Oh No! We suck again!

Um, last I checked we still haven't even had a 500 team in forever. And have you seen our Oline?

 

[A55VA6]

Who cares if we don't "need" a RB. We just got a guy who is SPECIAL. I love this pick.

 

[DCH]

Great year for WRs and great year for RBs. We got the best RB. I'm behind it.

 

[Yamahopper]

Rams are going into the future with diminished QB play a possibility. This is a great move to control the clock and still move the chains.

 

[MFaulk107]

Well, let's hope we just drafted Adrian Peterson 2.0

I'd rather a Marshall Faulk 2.0
That way he can block like a fullback, catch like a receiver, and run like Sanders.

OL that I'm hoping are at #41:

TJ Clemmings
Laken Tomlinson
AJ Cann

 

[Walter]

We cry about BPA all the time when the need picks bust. Guerly was BPA. The only other acceptable pick at 10 was Parker. Glad they didn't force a need pick. If healthy Guerly is AP. Guy is outstanding. Go watch him on YouTube. He has it all.

True story. Amazing upside.

 

[DCH]

OL that I'm hoping are at #41:

TJ Clemmings
Laken Tomlinson
AJ Cann

2 of those 3 guys should be there, maybe all of 'em. Cann might be our best option.

Is he tweeting from England? It's still April 30 right?

If we add Tomlinson/Cann we sign Barks. If we add Clemmings/OT we sign Blaylock. Just my $0.02
