We may have now reached a point where drafting a QB looks less likely, trading up would be too costly, none of them would start until the end of the season at best, … and then there is that whole salary raise to Foles that may require some justification. Our team has far too many gaps in depth to go all out in a trade high in the draft for risky future QB talent, unless, of course, one of them happens to just drop into our lap. The Rams will bite the bullet and start with Case Keenum, hope they can rehabilitate Foles, and pray that Mannion shows true development. The Rams lost 4 games last season by a grand total of 15 points, this with a near all-rookie OL and their top RB M.I.A. for 2 of those early losses. Add some weapons, this team can make it to the play-offs, especially with the development & added experience our OL has now gained.
Even with the loss of Chris Long & Laurinaitis as CAP casualties, our Rams may only have one real hole on the Defense at FS. Depth issues exist at OLB and MLB, and i've covered the DT position based on the potential loss of Brockers to free agency in the future. Josh Doctson & Hunter Henry will be expected to add the necessary firepower to our mediocre receiving corps, so it shouldn't be too much of a reach to believe our QB efforts this season will improve at least somewhat. jmo.
