Well good for you, but as to the rest of us who actually invest time in daily transactions, draft visits, prospects, and it’s much more meaning than a casual fan that screams “ IDGAF, In McSnead I trust”.

I was the first to defend Snead when many were turning on him before McVay came in and bad draft decisions had been made.

This is one of the most glaring getting caught at the last on the run of small shifty WR’s types, we just got the shit of the litter.

And then we got to deal with yearly BS Tavon Austin Jr Preseason MVP articles and casual fans who don’t know much of what’s going on.
Why are you being a prick for tho? I'm definitely not a casual. So again, why be a prick? Because you follow the team more than anyone else? Sorry for having a positive opinion that angers you.

It is kind of funny how nobody seems to think Skow might actually improve in this offense. If he makes a good jump year two he's gonna be a problem for some guys on that depth chart.
Skow has the Roberto Duran disease...."Hands of Stone."

Yea for sure, there's a reason why he was a 7th round pick. McVays system will make bad guys look average, and good guys look great. Lets say we sign OBJ, is Skow even on this roster? Kupp, ARob, OBJ, Van, Tutu, Harris, Powell. Thats 7 already. IDK I dont think he's a lock to make this years team assuming we sign OBJ.

Another thing about Tutu after seeing that catch today. For his small size he always has played bigger when it comes to contested catches, or going up to catch the ball. He has nice hands too. And we know he has 4.2-4.3 speed and runs pretty crisp routes for how young he is. I hate his size and talk a lot of shit on him but honestly wouldn't be surprised to see him flash a number of times this year.

I think Skow makes the team, but to your point… the numbers are tight there and who knows how things shake out.

I am still unclear if Harris is being groomed at WR or TE.

He 100% makes the team. Just for special teams alone.

Obj will be on pup if the Rams sign him so is no danger to skow losing his spot. I don't think any team signs obj until he shows he can run routes, which will be some time during the season.

Is there a scenario you can think he doesn’t make the team?

Not if McVay values special teams players. We all remember the heartburn we felt when the teams unit was underperforming a couple of years ago. I imagine it was worse for Mcvay standing on the sideline. Skow was a beast on teams last Season.

Is "time invested" a prerequisite for an opinion? How long have you been a Ram fan? Not that it matters. Just curious

I'm a bit surprised that some of us wonder is Benny Skow will make the team. The rookie delivered big time last season but he gets no love just because he dropped a couple of balls. And the one in the end zone was not an easy catch. He was twisting and turning to get his head and body around and lost track of the ball. Someone posted the replay the other day and it was obvious to me. But besides that... what about the receiver "development" in year 2. No one thinks Skow won't be better in year 2? IMO... this guy will be a big-play "possession-type" receiver.

There's no way. ACL injuries are so common and looking at what he did last year he will absolutely get a contract from someone else if we don't handle it properly. Multiple teams are already interested.

Yeah he's definitely a big time wildcard for us. That entire class should provide more value this year, or so I hope, given that there were more upside type picks mixed into it. Tutu, Brown, Rochell, Harris, maybe even Garrett so if they can have one or two of them "arrive" this year that would be a nice boost for the roster.

Add 2 browns to that group.

If your taking about Harris ? There is this thing called the IR & also the practice squad.

The only way imo he makes the 53 from camp is if he is playing excellent
On special teams.

I think Ram Fans take certain players for granite & just assume they will just make the team.

I might have been one of those,but starting to think Sean Mcvay can make a HUGE statement if he cuts Bobby Evans. That also is an example of how tight the 53 is.

Who makes it ? Harris or Evans ?

We don’t know what players were hurt last season. LEONARD FLOYD is The Best & most underrated Ram right now ??

I mean Stafford getting into the offense so deep already only the beginning of OTA’s.
