Offensive line depth needs serious improvement unless DJ Humphries can wind back the clock and perform at the level he did a few years ago.

If the plan is to just stay healthy in the trenches all year and also when it matters, that's asking for trouble. Injuries rates are high on o-line.

Looking for the Rams to go bargain hunting when cuts are made around the NFL. They are decent at identifying o-line cast offs at the pro level, taking on players other teams soured on. Doctson, Corbett.

Maybe one of the unknowns can surprise too. See: Alaric Jackson.

But to the naked eye, the o-line depth looks really bad.

League-wide ... O-Line is such a thin area for talent.

Most any team that loses starters is in trouble. If a team has two solid reserves, that's pretty good.

I was looking at the Eagles' O-Line. One of the best in the NFL last season but they lost their starting RG in free agency. Their 2025 starters look really good ... but their depth ... UGH!

I don’t think you’ll see Tyler Davis out there.IMO from what I heard is part of the 4 man rotation right now.

IMO Warren might not get any snaps either,but Quessenberry might early ? The depth chart is deep.

Brennen Jackson is going to be exciting to watch.There’s going to be a lot of battles out there.

-Joe Milton has a nice arm, and the Cowboys have a couple WR’s who are electric. There’s Rams 2nd string DB’s really need to prove something’s from what I saw.

Kendrick was LAZY & got burned twice at least.

Turpin is amazing & will be a household name IMO from what I saw & heard from a Cowboy Fan.He made me a believer for sure.He didn’t look 100% either.

Milton after throwing a couple TD passes & made it look easy.He was taken out from a hand issue?
- If those 2 don’t play The Rams will beat them easy.If not lookout!!
You may be right about Davis not seeing time. I was waiting to see that specifically given McVays praise of him. I think he will see some time given how young a player he is still.
Kendrick may have been lazy but it may be him being able to trust his injured leg.

I used to love depth charts, however, sometimes you have to understand that maybe the backup to one area, might the first option at another position. For example, if Witherspoon is unavailable, it might be Forbes not Kendrick who replaces him. Also LT has perk my interests as Warren McClendon has been manning that position, not Humphries during the scrimmage. So is McClendon the first tackle off the bench regardless if it's LT or RT?
The one bit that was interesting to me was McMahon list ahead of Levingston at G.....I assumed Livingston would get G reps, and he may. I think he has been getting practice reps at T mainly.

The BIGGEST opening is at CORNER BACK.
I noticed they list Nick Hampton at 250 lbs. He did look bigger in the Cowboys scrimmage when he made that interception. Maybe he was bigger last year, but got hurt early so didn't see much of him to notice a year ago.

Yeah - I’m not a Fan.

Put him on the practice squad.I don’t know if he’ll get claimed.J.Bong has him making the 53.There is going to be some tough cuts. I guess the preseason is where he can show his skills.
—He plays soft,but NOW the lights go on.

K.Thomas
B. Jack
J.Stewart -(where is he ?) he is on the smaller side ? Verse likes him
Hampton

Then D.Johnson & Murch

Does Stewart go on the pup ? How many of those players do The Rams keep.

I’m not a Nick Hampton Fan. Sean Mcvay is & we’ll see how much he likes him.

The INT ? Sometimes your at the right place at the right time.He got good depth & showed good hands.Put him on the line of scrimmage & he gets lost .

Offensive Line ? I’ll put J. Bongs 53 podcast up,but he is saying Alaric is going on the PUP & Willie Lumpkin makes the team. I don’t agree.

The Rams already found those 2 players & have them before training camp. Both Humpries & Qess are going to make the team.

We wasted a second-round pick on a fourth-choice TE?

Fire McSnead!
I will say, I'm slightly disappointed. I knew it would take a while for him to come along but definitely hoped he could carve a roll for himself in 12 personnel off the bat but sure seems like 12 looks like Higs and Colby right now.

But I'll be patient for all the reasons we've listed before.

Maybe it's their way of not placing too much pressure and expectation on him at the outset of his rookie season. I'll be disappointed if he isn't at least second on the depth chart by the end of the season.

Well - Kendrick IMO is a PUNK ! I don’t say that EVER really about a player. He isn’t going to make the 53 and knows it.He won’t even be put on the practice squad either.
THAT’S IMO- might be harsh & shouldn’t say that about a RAM.Might be breaking rules here.
-I’ve seen
Him enough to have that feeling,but even more NOW.Ingave him the benefit of doubt way back in the beginning with all the HATERS. I’m NOW a HATER of Kendrick.

Tyler Davis means a lot to The Rams Team. He was in the rotation when The Rams were going off in The PLAYOFFS!! He means to much to The Rams to play in the prey.

Murch might not even play,but him & D. Johnson are competing for that last DL/DE spot.

I believe they drafted several OL this year and picked up a highly ranked UDFA. They definitely invest in the trenches.

Here is J Bong’s 53 - I like how he explains The DB group of 8.
The rest of the players are playing for the practice squad IMO as well.

Don’t believe in Alaric sitting the 1st 4 games & Lumkin making The Rams 53 ?

There’s other positions I’d disagree with with,but might go to the game ? Will watch on Replay for sure.

They seem to draft the players I like other than there Georgia guys.

LOL - the push kush tush is mainly because of 2 players. IMO I ant the one who is better than Humpries as an O”Lineman & still underrated.
He is such a stud & played hurt.The Eagles got lucky they had the week off going into the play

If your talking Ferguson.There was a Fan next to me saying did you see the video of Mcvay MIC’D UP.-I said yes.
His take was when Mcvay said did you see that-wink wink- can’t say anything about that.Ferguson made a nice play. However it was with Matt Lafleur ,the Rams will be using there 12 personnel.
IMO there going vanilla & Davies Allen will play the 1st.half. He needs the Reps & confidence.

Ferguson is an X-Factor!!

LOL - yeah there are a view X-Factors that The Rams are curiously holding out.
-This players will find ways of finding the grass during the season & making big plays at times.

Yeah, if the Fergs rookie season goes like this:

-Doesn’t get action in preseason
-Gets minimal snaps in reg season
-Coaches rave about him in practice

I’ll be disappointed and begin to question if this regime even knows how to identify a TE that can translate and impact at this level.

Higs was Snead but pre McVay.
Everett could play but the staff lost patience with the inconsistency and other “stuff.”
Since then it’s been JAGS.

They need to hit on Fergs like Arizona hit on McBride, 2nd rd 55th

Three late round picks (5th and 6th rounders) but a couple are interesting ... Drew Kendall (the son of long-time NFL veteran Pete Kendall but he was a first round draft choice) and Texas huge LT Cameron Williams (once projected to get drafted much higher).

Not sure the veterans they brought-in are highly regarded.
Pryor and Lamm have been mostly career back-ups; and Kenyon Green (former first round pick) was kind of a disappointment in Houston.

I do agree that Philadelphia invests in the trenches but some of those investments have been low-risk, calculated gambles that have paid-off. Recent examples being Mailata and Becton.

It seems like you have an interesting point here about Ferg but - as per usual - I think a lot of your good points are completely lost in how unintelligible your posts are.

I'd like to be able to discuss players with you but I just can't given how you post. If I'm somehow being insensitive here you can let me know but I just can't engage with you on this board when you write like that.

Still having a hard time with your thoughts on Kendrick? He had all the chances in the World.

Actually I’m basically REALLY PISSED if you want to know The Truth which is hard for me to swallow.

I was one of the BIGGEST Kendrick backers from his rookie year & 2nd season as well. Then he was going to start coming out of OTA’s

MAN - whatever that saying is ??

Ahkello Whiterspoon is such a better CB & why The Rams didn’t resign him after his 2023 will ALWAYS make ME HOT!!

Kendrick will get his chance. You put Turpin on the field & look out.
Josh Wallace is still looking for his Jock Strap in Oxnard.

I mean, hitting on a McBride like guy would be amazing but while I'm not gonna be a Rams apologist, hitting on a TE is really hard in this league. It's actually one of the reasons I've always been so impressed with Higs cause he's truly an excellent TE but not a super flashy pass catcher like the top 3 guys in the league.

@Londoner had a good call, I think we should be happy if he carves a roll out for himself by end of year given how much the position requires and how much McVay asks of TEs in this offense.

Well that could mean that McClendon has suddenly grown feet or that Humphries has been shit. The former seems unlikely to me.

Yeah - you can already see this kid is going to be special. I have NO DOUBT. I get it,but then again there’s another TE coach. You can go look back at the TE position Coaches around The NFL and see that The Rams know what’s going on.

Glad KUPP is GONE !! The Rams don’t need a WR basically playing TE at times.

I think Fergy will be Higs replacement. For this season if they want to involve him it will need to be in the slot, but by next year's camp he should be a prime candidate to move into that inline TE role.

Also I think he's a bit more talented in his hands and pass catching dept than Higs was when he came in. Needs to improve on contested catches most likely, but that will happen or not with Stafford at QB. Because Stafford will feed him as much as he can handle if and when he gets on the field.

My guess is by the second half of the season we'll see him worked quite a bit into the slot snaps.

WOW - never stops amazing me. Did listen to J Bong & he seems to think it was Humpries that was playing well at LT & going to start the season there.

I can only go by what my eyes told me from 100 yards plus away.Warren was holding his own & couldn’t see much else.

Watched some warm ups and drills.I’d say wait to watch preseason. If you don’t see Humpries Quess & Warren it willlst RAM FANS know the feel comfortable with there depth.

This is The Best Depth Upton Paper Sean
Mcvay has EVER had as HC.
