I feel good too... overly
Optimistic? no.... not when every player is basically healthy or on their way. Rams have several units on this team that must play up to their potential for this team to have its first winning season on a decade. I say in this order ...#1-OLers #2-Recievers #3-DB's. IF all three can stay together & play to their potential yes. Butt-monkey here that probability is not likely.
#3-DB's-The addition of Gregg Williams & a new highly talented crop of DB's to compete will fix this unit. I expect this unit to explode and fulfill their potential.
#2-Recievers is highly talented and very very young but has the disorder..... ADD.
INCONSTANT in most all things. Drop Virus & tendency to hang real close to their covering DB's ...looks like they need to get out away & separate from their opponent DB bros. This would be my two major gripes. Small injuries to Givens & Austin hurt some but no where close to the issues the OL had. I do believe this unit will hold up their part of what is expected.
#1- OL- It has failed to remain free of injury since Fishers arrival. The top three OL'ers are the culprits. Last 2 season Saffold & Wells have been unable to finish major chunks of their seasons games. JL has been discussed completely but all three have proven that they are far passed injury prone. Rams lost 2 starters & a main back up OL'er in UFA.....only one has been replaced. Fisher has gambled here is now depending on raw green third day draft selections & WWC's for replacements. I would expect a
healthy veteran UFA to be signed in here real soon. I would not trust this starting unit to remain healthy. I fear the worse here with what we have currently... due to injury issues & lack of talent on the bench.
