Honestly, if Alaric Jackson is fully healthy (no blood clot issues popping up), I'd give him a chance to run with the LT job if Noteboom can't go.

Then again maybe in one of your mock drafts a future LT/RT swing can be put there to start The Rams preseason at LT like he did 2 years ago.
Then honestly Iackson can remain The Rams starting LG.I’d say start inside out & hope Bruss can at least be a backup swing guard.

I have more faith in Bruss than you do, apparently. I believe Bruss has every opportunity to win one of the guard spots.

Noteboom is not the answer. If that is the Rams plan we are doomed to another year of mediocrity and this will probably be Stafford's last season. Heck mediocrity may be welcome. At least they will get a high first round pick next year. Train, I think you are on to something.

At least Jeff Fisher built his teams to beat our division, or matchup. They just added a few physical pieces to there Defense. And physical defenses and offenses for that matter absolutely dismantle us.

We're not remotely close to being built for physical play anywhere along the team.

With the exception of Hav @ RT, spot on.

ps might as well see what he would bring in draft choices in trade.

Rams never won more then 7 games under Fisher. I do not like Jeff Fisher on a boat, I do not like him with a goat, I am not a Jeff Fisher fan, I do not like him @ottoman89

It wouldn't let me edit and say and NO I'm not saying I'm a Jeff Fisher fan and I don't want him back. Haha.

Really? Hey train, are you channeling your inner oldnotdead?

So sorry, jut having a hard time seeing our Rams going far with our current offensive line, but hey, I sure would like to be surprised. Through good years and bad, and seen both in my 65 years of being a fan of them Horns.

At left tackle I'd like to see Jackson right out of the gate...

train,
First of all I totally agree that Alaric Jackson should be our Left Tackle.
But if we want to rebuild the OL then I don't see the benefit of trading Hav at this point, especially for a draft pick that more than likely won't play much next year.
Besides I think that the problem on the OL is more the interior. Our guards and center are for the most part sub standard.
Not sure any of them are starting quality for any other team in the NFL.
Just my .02
