The 2025 NFL Pre-Draft General Talk

[Ram_Rally]

I’m sticking with my original assessment. There WILL be better players available at R1.26. If Rams trade down for high R2 and low R3 picks perhaps Burden would be in play for the high R2 pick.

I would love that. I usually do that in mock drafts. Even though I get mad when I miss out on him lol. But even still I like jaylin Noel as a consolation.

I'm lobbying for a true bell cow RB

In that case, I would say we have far bigger weaknesses in the starting lineup than Kyren Williams. If we are serious about challenging for the Super Bowl this season, those holes need to be addressed first.

That sounds good, but those teams might worry about the Rams grabbing him and trade to get up to an earlier position.

Really don't see him getting past the Steelers tbh so might be a mute point, but it'll be very interesting to see how this plays itself out in a few days.

Betting odds and the general rumor mill seem to have the top 4 picks locked in possibly top 6.

Cam Ward
Travis Hunter
Abdul Carter
Will Campbell

Then there are questions but Mason Graham is the heavy favorite.
Aston Jeanty seems set at 6 and Warren at 7 but either of those can switch to an OT.

What exact holes are you referring to? Of course we can upgrade numerous spots, but what upgrade could impact the game more than a stud RB? A second TE, a 4th WR, a backup/swing T, CB? What position do you feel will directly impact the number of wins and losses next season. We could start the season today without a draft and still be considered one of the top 2 or 3 teams in the NFC. Did you bother to read the stats I provided by Kyren and his comparisons? Outside of Qb, nobody touches the ball more than your RB, we should all be on board with upgrading the position like the Eagles did, worked out pretty well for them.

CB and ILB. Our starters there are worse players than KW.

Wait, you mean our all-pro corner back room isn't good enough?!?

There are rumours that Carolina are taking Jalon Walker if he reaches number eight.

I will not stand for this Blake Corum erasure!

I could see them add ehever they think is the best playmaker regardless of position. McMillan is as likely to give their young QB a chance.

One of the worst practice players you’ve ever seen

This also stood out to me. From my perspective while playing team sports, practice is where you form the team and players challenge each other. It’s where you learn what to expect from each other so that you don’t have to think about it in games. Hearing that a player doesn’t take practice seriously or want to test themselves and other players would be a huge no for me if true.

If a trade back is an option the best case scenario would be if Sanders or Dart are still available. A QB needy team would might be willing to trade a couple day 2 picks to possible get their next franchise guy.

If the Browns or Giants don't pick a quarterback with their first pick, they might be willing to trade up to our 26th for one. According to the draft simulator trading back our 26th for a 33rd or 34th and a late day 2 pick in the 3rd round would likely be accepted. We'd only drop 7 or 8 spots and pick up a 94th or 95th with either the Browns or Giants.

A guy like Dart would make sense for the Giants. They have Russell Wilson for a year. Dart could sit and learn. Then step in year two. Plus, a team who chose him in the first round would have that 5th year. Even if they thought he'd be there when they pick in the second that would only give them 4. More incentive to move into the first round.

Of course, playing devil's advocate with that scenario, would we be willing to give up that 5th year option?

Yeah, practice sharpens the skills. I remember playing fast pitch softball there were always a few guys who wouldn't show up to practice. But they'd always be there for game time. And they'd wonder why they make errors. You play like you practice.

Love the player. Unfortunately has a snowball's chance in hell of wearing horns.

DJ is my favorite media evaluator. Though I disagree with that list right at the top as Carter edges out Hunter in my book.

I find myself wondering what the Rams do if McMillan is on the board at 26. And I think it is possible given rumblings with him as well as the fact only Green Bay showed up to his pro day. He is not what we need specifically, but supersized possession options have a value all their own.

Only two players I do not want the Rams to draft are QB Sanders and the edge Stewart.

I like very much seeing S Starks and OT Banks on his board in our neighborhood.
