You know I’d be The First to call

B. S. !!!!!

The Truth is is Jacob Harris has come to play. He is intense & a Baller!!

He will make the team on Special Teams alone.I never thought he would be where he is right now after his Knee & body injuries. Dude is working hard & don’t forget about Ben Sko !!

The Rams depth chart has never been so INTENSE!! I might not get to training camp on Friday. All the cards point against. The sooner I leave,the sooner I get back.::

I can see photos & know just about as much. You can pick up on so much as time goes,but what I see Friday will be different from the following week.That is just normal & gives a better perspective of what is out there.

Liking something that comes out of Richard Sherman's mouth(fingers) is uncomfortable. I'm not sure how to deal with this feeling.

I believe the top five WR's are set, all that remains is for the 6th WR or the 4th TE to craw to the top of the heap @ the end of the preseason.

Kupp, Robinson, Jefferson, Atwell & Harris @ WR then Higbee, Blanton & Hopkins @ TE.......

PR/WR Brandon Powell who will be a UFA might play a key element in this outcome.

Don't forget Skow. Both he and Harris are excellent gunners and special teamers too.

It's gonna be tough.

one of our WRers being traded would not surprise me.
train
With our veteran QB ready for his 2nd season in this offense with a full healthy amount of targets to throw to......this offense can be scary for most all NFL defenses. I am sure that McVay will be making calls where the opponent's defense will have 6 DB & the DL is made up of nothing but pass rushers...... it's sure going to be some big-time ops for a Ram RB to find some large holes.

By the end of the Championship season QB Stafford was playing with 3rd string pass catchers (outside of Kupp) & still winning.

I believe McVay could go with only 5 wideouts & 3 TE's & then go with a large herd of Stallions @ RB in order to prevent the very bad situation of what happened in 2022 when all his RB's were injured thus causing the trade with the Pats.

We will soon see if the RB's can become interchangeable in the passing game with the TE/WR's.

I think you've got the wrong answer to the right question.
The Rams, imo, will probably carry 7 WRs this season.. unless a PR/KR guy magically appears from the DBs or something. A healthy Van will help.. Skow, Harris and Tutu will be in second year and there's reason to argue for all of them on roster. Powell's WR impact will be very minimal.. but he was an absolute difference maker for the team. Can't lose him.

I see the roster fight between a 3rd QB and 4th RB...

I think we'll keep 3 QBs with just 3 RBs. RBs not hard to find, but I guess same could be said of any bench player that low in the pecking order. Aka I'm guessing and don't really know hahaha

I think the investment in Kyren Williams plus the value of Funk to special teams will push the 4RB thing.
Of course.. they'd all have to be healthy at the same time, lol.

I would also factor in who the Rams feel they can sneak in on the practice squad helping sway that decision. Can't wait to hear who stands out in pads throughout training camp.

Yes, Skow has been a special teams demon! Got a lot of playing time last season as well hard to imagine him not making the final cut.

He's great on special teams, blocking too, just needs more consistency catching the football and I know I'm being hard on the Notre Dame alum for the drop against the 49ers, but it was he 49ers!

I say get rid of Wolford and just keep Perkins and then get a QB onto the practice squad - maybe sneak Wolford

I don't see him any better than other back-up QBs around the league unless Detroit snags him.

Sure hope for Lovie's sake that Stingley can stay healthy. Texans are potentially that shit job that turns out to be a pretty good job if they hit on that corner plus the QB continues his growth.
