Simple point from above post.

The Rams starting lineup & cross training during the game was Kool.

All those 5 starters were impressive.The SAD thing is having to make cuts.

The hope is The Rams practice squad is able to bring these players back. Either way I like The group as a WHOLE!!

The BEST thing is The Rams brought in Veterans.IMO this is Big ROB’s last season.He also at times is a WEAKNESS!!!

I’m at one time in 2025 Wyatt will report on Wyatt. Plus KT reminds me of AJ,but with better feet & more energy.His injury last season bought The Rams time & hopefully he is stash away till 2026.

My take on all The DB’s. The Rams are set by numbers.

That’s how they rolled in 2024 using the depth of the 53 & practice squad together.

My TAKE weather ANYONE wants to TALK about it is WHY IMO The RAMS are going to be GREAT (Top NFL FRANCHISES)

The extension of The Practice Squad is HUGE!!

LES SNEAD(Scouts)in his finding of PLAYERS .

Sean Mcvays (coaching staff) in developing of Players.

I’ll start off with Stetson Bennett & his maturity. Sean Mcvay & Les Snead spot this guy out from the beginning.

For all he has went through & The Rams Franchises support.To allow him to find himself as a person & a MAN. Keeping it in house.

He came up with PUKA & Kupp was hurt?? My thoughts are that when Kelly brought up Matthew Stafford not being to relate to Rookies was because of STETSON IMO ?? We can all have out questions about it & go back in time ?? I just put the picture together.

Puka has been a veteran from the beginning as a Rookie.His first 2 years are IMPRESSIVE!! What he’s in The NFL Top 100 ?

When Stetson came up the backup QB ended up being Carson Wentz,so that is what it is.SO Bennetts rookie year he is competing with Rypein & Dresser Winn. In the preseason The Talent was there.

Fast forward to 2024 & Bennett gets to work with 2 of The NFL’s best in Stafford & G! Got preseason games in.

Now 2025 - Bennett still has no pressure Working with Dresser Winn still around as well,while working with The Best.

RAG’s could have left as well as the QB coach,but the surroundings Bennett is around is FIRST CLASS. Add Lafleur & Mcvay to the group.

From the start- this is The Classic way of developing a QB!! I hear all that Manning talk & drafting a QB in 2026.

What drivers ME CRAZY is why not enjoy what you have,and at least embrace it a little bit.

After watching last season & even just a little bit from the Saints games. Especially coming off 2 shoulder surgeries.

How good is Rob Havenstien? The biggest moments of a game towards the END of a season.(Playoffs) I’ll put it nicely- a Hiccup?

At Merlin I thought would have come up with this one & all the Reeder haters.

I’ll give the positives & say what a leader he is .Plus an excellent run blocker who works well with K-Dot.

I did see the big guy crumble like a pretzel. I like the cross training.SO having Warren back at RT & Quess at LT yesterday was interesting.

AJ Arcuri was playing LT - he seems improved over the years.This is probably going to be his last training camp as a Ram. Will he stick in THE NFL ??
-Just question I’m curious about ?

Roster The offense is pretty set number wise - IMO a RB is going to be kept over a WR ? Also The Rams like a large group of O”Lineman

QB Stafford- Jimmy G - Bennett
RB Hunter - Williams - Corum
TE Higbee - Ferguson- Allen - Parkisian

OL - 10

WR - 6 ???? Adams -Puka — Tutu - Jordan — Xiaver - Konata

Total 25(26)

Plus 3 special teams

8 DB’s Forbes- Lake -Kinchens —McC - Durant. - Ahkello. - Williams
Curl
5 ILBers

That’s 42

DL/OLB. 11 ? I’ll go through the rest later

Well I knew I posted it somewhere,but glad I posted here.

For all the PFF’ers
KT Leveston had a good report.Still going to be hard to find 10 I”Lineman without cutting some good players.
Bowles might have played himself into a roster spot ? He came out of nowhere.

Jack/Hump - 1 roster 1 pup ?

Steve,Shelton, Dot,big Rob
-Quessenberry,Limmer,,Dedich,Limmer,Warren

welp - hard call to have to cut these 2 players & maybe Dedich ?

Verse,Young,Turner,Poona,Hamilton,Davies,Fiske,Stewart

D.Johnson & B. Jackson played themselves on the roster.

That’s 10. - 52

IMO an extra RB ?? It’s going to come down to SPECIAL TEAMS!

It’s a hard call. The Rams love using there roster to it’s FULLEST!!
Those DB’s & WR’s(RB’s) will be switching out ?(won’t say the word)

The Rams have been known to keep O”Lineman on the 53 & not play them on Sunday’s.

—There is still Cleveland & then The CUTS. August 27.

CRAZY in a good way(depends), is Football starts,but The extra few days really gives TEAMS time to game plan & get ready for the season.

The Rams(Stafford,A.Jackson) figuring the roster out,& players getting poached is INTERESTING.
—The extra time is a game changer.

BTW - always find it odd about how The Rams try to keep things in there vest sort of speak.This offseason especially.

The depth is amazing.RIGHT NOW compared to 2023 & 2024 The Rams should be coming into 2025 HEALTHY!! Even if a couple starters aren’t out there early,The TEAM is going to be able to FINISH STRONG!!!
Weird though -
#41 J.Stewart only flashes of him
#18 Ferguson
#25 Emmanuel
#72 Humpries
These are key players WE don’t know much about & there impact on the roster.

Add Higbee being healthy.

-Now once The Lights come on.Wait till WE see #17 The Star

Well just because Ferguson gets his first playing time today.

I liked him for his value & thought he’d be a good fit for The Rams.A 1st. Rd pick would’ve been to early.

Mason Taylor thought the same,but was the better choice.He went a couple picks earlier,SO imo they did really well still getting a First Round pick.Still think trading back for a 2026 2nd & get a SECOND RD pick for Taylor would’ve been a excellent choice.

Wanted Jihaad Campbell,but the value of a First Round pick was worth moving back for.Plus drafting Pooh & getting Dolac as a UDRFA ,plus Ferguson really shows how Great The Rams are using Draft Picks.

Do look forward to seeing how all these players do there rookie years. Add next seasons draft could extra special.I do see The Rams using draft picks to maybe make a move at the Trade Deadline!! They have a little extra Cap Space if needed to make that Superbowl Run.

The backups on the line are having a lot of trouble trying to keep Winn protected. Browns line is dominating them so far. I know they have a couple starters out there.

I was surprised to see the NFL opener and Thursday night game is going to be Eagles versus Cowboys.

I guess all you have to do is call yourself "America's Team" and people are so stupid they believe it.

The Eagles deserve it.
The cowboys have nothing but a reputation long gone of any quality.

They should have hooked up an Eagles,/Rams opener.
Our playoff loss was still one of the best games all year.

GO RAMS !! :)

Well you tell me what you see out there.I’ll take the good with The BAD!!! AJ is gone !!

Who & how many O”Lineman do you keep?? I’ll tell you mine if you tell me yours.

The TRUTH to ME is KT is such a FREAKING STUD !! He can’t get CUT imo. He reminds me of ALARIC,but BETTER his first couple years.

LEVESTON is my FAVORITE (preseason), the way he seals his man in run blocking,the way he DOMINATES the Edge.Plus he gets down field smoothly.Wonder if he leaves the line to soon? Gives away the run getting to far off the scrimmage early???

Wyatt Bowles playing CENTER is PERFECT.Gives him that experience at CENTER which he struggles with,but as a GUARD he is SOLID.
If he gets CUT,maybe his film isn’t SO good ? My hope is he passes through waivers.

IMO - KT will get picked up from a NFL team who needs a SOLID young LT!! I’d give him a FIRST ROUND grade if he is coming out in 2026 with his experience with The Rams Offense.

That’s IMO forever that is worth.(being able to post on ROD)

Any other lineman playing today isn’t worth talking about ?? I do love the protection he got in the 1st HALF. Still haven’t watched more than that,but I can’t see it changing. KT has impressed me SO much. You always have hope,but to see it on video?? Pretty KOOL.

Drinking a lot of KOOL-AIDE on Wyatt & KT. I saw Bowles & KT sealing there guys only to have others breakdown.LT & RT of the future. -I’m sure Brian Allen has his foot print on these guys(Limmer,Dedich,Bowles). Ross training at CENTER (guard).

Posted around the board,but Wyatt Bowles gets CUT.He played extremely well for a UDRFA.I like the fact he is an older & mature player as a O”Lineman.
IMO playing him at Center Exposed his weaknesses,but gave him some very valuable NFL experience.He fought Lampkin hard as well. —-.HOPEFULLY he makes to the practice squad.

Alaric Jackson (NFI) 4 weeks (?)
DJ Humpries - from what I’ve seen looks healthy & ready to GO!
-KT(future depth) imo - can’t lose

Steve Avila from what I’ve said DAY 1 pencil in LG.(wtf) still blows mind

Dedich - filled in & helped keep The Rams 2024 season together.

Limmer - same thing,but really was the glue.He is more of a Center than a Guard? Preseason confirms it imo.Dedich showed he can play center,but is The Best guard option?

Shelton (what a mistake 2years ago) well his experience w/Da Bears priceless.He started every down for them.BubbaRam might have his say,but there are a lot of backup Centers now ?? Seems like The Rams don’t have the problem there in 2025.

K-Dot !! What’s there to say.Don’t like his hair style.OG all the Day!

Big Rob- last season & IMO is a little bit of a liability .He is The Band Leader & took over ever since Big Whit left.

Warren - looks like last season gave him a lot of pressure play.He wasn’t at his best.Thought he played with rollerskates at times.Seems to have his balance & looks stable from the growth.He’s ready for that RT spot in the future.He is still very young for his NFL YEARS!!

Quess - just a Solid NFL backup swing all the way across the Offensive Line skipping over the center spot.

SO my hope is to keep Alaric healthy & The Rams are HEALTHY & SOLID UPFRONT to start 2025.

Have to LMAO for drinking SO much KOOLAIDE with (missing man). The cool thing is Brian Allen who was drafted the same year just shows how FAR this OFFENSIVE LINE has come !! The BEST EVER under Sean Mcvay & Zak Kromer has to get some credit for being SO selfish less since his dad was the O”Line coach.He use to run the drills & Dickerson as well.He helps make it work with the group!! WE as RAMS FANS should take notice of how FAR this GROUP as WHOLE has become ONE !! Mike Munchak isn’t even on The Rams coaching staff,but those Wednesday meetings with he & Zak is a thing.Plus Big Whit is always checking in on this group.Talk about unity.

—The practice squad is an extension.Really liked Wyatt & then what happens with Lampkin?

KB - sets up The Game as most improved group.The funny thing is what the conclusion was that ALL groups improved.Which group didn’t improve??

I start at QB & say Mattew Stafford’s back is a concern.Which if not a 100% & can he hold his OWN? I’d say that player & position is The Most Important.
I get The Concern from Rams Fans.
—Getting his contract done early & having his mind right & The Rams knowing MATTHEW STAFFORD was The Man was HUGE.

He got through OTA’s & worked with the mental part of it with players(Adams).

The QB room got better though & Stafford is coming into 2025 100% healthy with COMMITTING to THE RAMS.
-GOLF I’m sure will have to wait until after 2025 & hopefully later into 2026 in mid February.
-His focus might be better than EVER!! He needs to FINISH his LEGACY STRONG !!!

Make your point ???

Jimmy G & Stetson are more ready & probably more involved into the game planning.There knowledge & experience of the playbook is that much more.
IMO in a way The Rams are better of for ALL of this,because WE know NINE(#9) when healthy & protected is as good as any QB.
-The QB coach stayed to be a Rams as well.Which adds that much more to The Grouo ALL being together for a 2nd season.

Well if they(NFL) were on course with 2024 it would be The Rams at Philly.
—I’m not sure how that would’ve worked out.Playing Houston at SOFI is better than playing Detroit to start the season on the road.

Stafford should be as ready & healthy coming into 2025,no matter what some may think.Alaric Jackson is the bigger concern,but he’s put the work in.Physically is more the question going full pads.

The other question is Jared Verse & his ankle,but they’ve rested him as well.This Rams team is ready to FIRE!!
