Hoping the return of Garrett can nullify this a little by putting up more pressure with the front end.
i see chicken little is still online...lol
the sky is falling!!! the sky is falling!!!
sorry el chicken little chapo... let me pull my head out of the sand... (that did make me laff... ty)
i'm not so sure you remember but weren't we SB favs?
SB favs BEFORE the myles trade
SB favs BEFORE the mcduffie trade
SB favs BEFORE the watson signing...
and honestly with the exception of the MG injury, i think the kobie turner injury
was the biggest blow to the rams...
poona ranks right up there too
devante?... he'll be back... we got guys matt can throw to until then...
but i think we have some depth at edge,DT, and secondary..
that was my point along with the WTF rams fans, stop crying, we're not dead!!
so yeah chapo... RELAX... we're gonna be ok...
the sky is not falling...

I am relaxed slo, don't be so slo bro. I'm personally just tired of the constant injuries. I get its football but it still sucks to have really good players get hurt. I'm just joking around now to deal with the bad news but totally get that the games still have to be played. Hopefully the Rams can continue to get healthy where they can. If the Rams make the playoffs and go deep, I do wonder if Watson could possibly come back although I'm not sure that's even a remote possibility......oh nevermind, did the research and he can't......too bad
I honestly don't know, that's why I asked if you would clarify. Nevermind... all good!
And these injuries are why I wanted to trade down and get a WR/CB in the first two picks with an ILB for the 3rd pick.
Hopefully Klare can pick up some of the slack on the receiving side.

I think that EF is more comfortable and plays much better as our 3 CB, with Wallace as the 2. Shula may want to have Forbes as the 2 though, with JW as the 3. Who knows ?
Last year he was playing out of position as a 1 CB, imo.

I wouldn't argue against getting a CB.. but I will say that the need breakdown looks like this to me:
-Rams have 1 incredible CB.. and two more who are performing at a very high level. If you add a functional 4th, you're probably okay.
If an opportunity for a big CB like Riq Woolen popped up for dirt cheap.. sure.. that'd be a great swing.. but I don't think they're replacing Watson with any acquisition.. I think they're replacing the role previously held by Forbes, who moves up.
-Rams have 1 incredible WR.. and no others who perform at even a functional level. Adams should be back.. but as Nate Atkins wrote.. he'll be 34 and coming off something like a third serious hamstring injury.
Not surprised by this. Also not a great start for Watson in horns to miss so much of his first year after coming over as a FA.
Rams really need some corner talent added to that secondary. Fresh young legs and that desire to make their bones in this league. Add that shit to the list I guess.

And if McD can’t go this week, it will be
Wallace CB1 and Forbes CB2.
Curl isn’t practicing either.
Yikes. Rooting for this team is not for the faint of heart
Yeah, a young blue chip CB to learn under McDuffie would be great.

Hopefully we can stay healthy in the secondary otherwise. Far from a sure thing so knock on wood, it's a huge loss, but if we do, I think we're fine. McDuffie is a stud. Wallace's emergence is so huge for us. I actually like Forbes enough as CB3, he was playing above his head last season. Garrett returning should help the pass rush which will make the secondary's life easier.

McDuffie (and Watson) might rub off on Wallace and Forbes. No doubt they’re benefiting from playing with them.
Losing Watson sucks. But we'll have him, Garrett and McDuffie for a few years. Whatever happens this year we should be good for the foreseeable future.
