Besides MG's injury to undergo arthroscopic surgery on his left knee & being placed on IR... Rams have several major issues that will cause them to burn some brain cells this week. The ankle injury to our best Safety starter Kam Curl is very big. I can find no updated news on how serious his ankle is. In addition to MG ....Rams may be looking for Curl's replacement in this defense.So who gets signed to the active roster in his place? PS guy or an outside vet thats still waiting. Maybe at another position.
Maybe just Peterson for edge depth. Or Norton for DT depth, with AD playing end more?
Project an Increase in game snaps with limited info:
#1- ED/Josaiah Stewart
#2-DL/Desjuan Johnson
#3-ED/ Wesley Bailey (MR53) won a MR spot as a UDFA Rookie who is a pure edge rusher type. My guess is WB is already getting a serious increase of reps with FIRST team defense in practice at both ED posts. Did Byron Young ever see practice last season due to his bad knee? Having both starting edge rushers with bad knees is NOT positive.
Possible upcoming roster transactions:
ED Jamie Sheriff (PS-16) played in 3 NFL gms (24-25)but he just arrived from the Seahawks. JS been around for 3 NFL preseasons mostly with Seattle with a stop in Carolina. Might be a game day call up but JS appears to offer limited NFL experience.
ED Darryl Peterson (PS-16) IMO has much more long term upside to be called up. DP is a solid complete defender who has a excellent upside.
Maybe more important is making defensive system adjustments...
