@jthom1: Rams promoting LB Marshall McFadden to 53-man roster from practice squad to fill roster spot created by release of WR Austin Pettis.
Not the help at LB I was hoping for. Guy hasn't done anything in his third year now. 1 tackle 1 assist.
Hard to get stats if you don't get snaps.
Me too, I love Denicos Allen. Maybe they see something in McFadden, I just want better LB play and don't care if we have to bench JL or Ogletree to get it. If McFadden can play, put him in. Tree has been abysmal, basically anybody can play better.I was hoping they would promote Denicos Allen
Not sure why you'd expect anything more at this time of year. Trades are very rare this time of year and hard to believe the Rams would give up anything that would get much in return. There isn't going to be much different available on the FA market right now.I was hoping for something more. I'll have to check him out, hopefully he's good. Probably not the type to take over for our current garbage cast of LBs.

Garbage? Really? Isn't that a bit harsh?
Again though...where are you going to find such a player at this point of the season?Really?? this is what we thought we had to cut Pettis for? While I'll admit I know nothing about the guy I doubt hes gonna come in here and set the world on fire. wish they would have made a move for somebody that can actually contribute our LBs have been terrible.
Wonder why Bates doesn't seem to be getting any love. He seemed to be right there with Ray Ray as far as talent and I thought he played a little more stout. But that of course was in very limited action. Is he just not improving?More than likely it speaks to Dunbar's injury lingering. He has missed or been limited in practice the past 2 weeks. May have aggravated it more.
You promote from within or possibly move Bates into a more significant role on defense.
