Rams re-sign DeMarcus Robinson

[Memento]

Solid signing! I’d still draft a speed threat high (Brenden Rice is my choice, as always.), but I’m absolutely fine with one more year of Robinson, Nacua, and Kupp.

 

[RamFan503]

Nice. Now lock up Dotson, Shelton, a FA Edge, and a CB. Then we can take BPA for the entire draft. Easy peazy Sneed, Demoff and Pastors. Get er done.

 

[ottoman89]

Absolutely LOVE this!

 

[WestCoastRam]

I love that we're bringing him back. I still am holding out hope that we draft Rice in the 2nd. Then we're completely covered if Kupp gets injured or starts to decline.

I don't think this precludes them drafting a WR. This team needs 4 WRs through the year with injuries and such. But Atwell is insurance so they don't have to draft a WR this season.

Yeah, the offense needs more speed to really set them up as an elite unit. Nacua came up with some big plays, but whether it's a RB or WR, they need another guy that can take a 10 yrd slant and take it to the house. Or a RB that can get to the corner and rip off a 50 yrd run.

"Up to $5 mil" which means it's probably a safe deal unless he produces. No problem with that.

Yeah after this signing I would only go for speed guys at WR in the draft if we go there. Unless another Puka falls to the 5th round of course lol.

I'm surprised he didn't try the market to try to get a bit more. But I am happy to see them get this done at an affordable cost.

I wonder if knowing the team is primed for a deep run and possible championship had anything to do with his decision to accept the deal. Seems like he could have got more from another team that had less post season chances.

 

[I like Rams]

I'd rather take a top back than a WR there but that's just me. Either way I personally wouldn't draft either position there.

 

[TK42-RAM]

Good news.

 

[Kupped]

I just love the CONTINUITY!!!

Stafford and Robinson clicked later in the season.
The Rams have a natural 3WR group… I love it. Basically.. the entire starting O, except Dotson, looks to be coming back. We’ll see on Dotson.
Signing Robinson eliminates the NEED to draft a WR in first three rounds.
The O is going to come out on fire next year.

I don't think this precludes them taking one, they just don't need to take one.

That's ideally what FA does, eliminate the need to draft and then you're that much free-er to draft more BPA.

With free agency....re-signing our own and maybe a couple of somebody else's, this draft is gonna be interesting. Immediate need may be climbing into the back seat.

“Hello?” Higs.

 

[Mackeyser]

Smart of him… I think with this WR draft that there will be veteran WR3s and WR4s sitting on the couch come September since whenever there’s a bump in the cap, it almost always gets eaten by the top players and even hurts the mid/lower tier vets at first.

This locks him into a team on the rise with a QB that trusts him and will sign him if he’s producing. AND… he’s not an unsigned vet scratching for a team post draft or worse, signed only to have a high draft pick in front of him leaving him with few opportunities to earn another contract.

 

[Kupped]

“Hello?” Higs.

I actually count Allen as continuity.
Sure, he’s young.. but he seems good.
I’m optimistic.

Agree. I appreciate what Higbee has done over the years but it’s time for a succession plan. I just rewatched Rams Ravens game and Allen impressed.

Rams still need another WR. How about OBJ for a one year deal?

If we hadn't resigned Robinson, that would have been good.

We get one more year out of Tutu on the cheap.

But now we need to put our money in to O line.
