If they pick at 26 I think it’s likely that BPA may be a receiver. I like the corner from Ole Miss (Amos) there too. Jihad Campbell is a pipe dream. I doubt Warren or Loveland drop that far. One can only hope. I’m not impressed with any of the DLine/edge guys in that range. So I keep coming back to corner or receiver. But the Rams are pretty specific with what they look for in a receiver. So I’m guessing Amos will be the pick. He’s a bigger, stronger, faster Darius Williams. He’s not a lock down type. He’s really smart and is always in the right place at the right time. Plus he tackles well, unlike several corners in this draft.

It wouldn’t exactly be great value but outside the top 5-8 there isn’t great value.

I’d be more excited about Campbell, Warren or Loveland, because I think the biggest problem is stopping the run and getting Higbee’s replacement on board.
Yeah, I won't be holding my breath on Loveland or Warren being there. If either makes it, I'd likely take him.

Now that's a matchup problem. It wouldn't surprise me if they did. Especially, if he made it down to Pittsburgh #21 allowing the Steelers to move back and then select Milroe.
Cant teach height, at 6'6 with that skill set he sure would be a matchup problem.
Would definitely need to get ahead of the Chargers at #22

Mason Taylor -Will have THE BEST
NFL career than All 2025 TE’s !!

Bar-none !

He said the player he most resembles as well.Anyone who was like me & called it out in 2017.

In FACT , I’d draft him at 26 just to get The 5 years.He’d fits The Rams well.

Fendi Onobun would like a word.

Flop in stien

Who was Mcvays FIRST PICK ever ?
He was pretty good & at times had better numbers as a pass catcher?
Helped The Rams go to a Super Bowl.

As an Old Draftnk- you always remember the schools. Now a days it could be 4 Universities in 4 seasons.
South Bama

Go back & look at The Rams first Superbowl in 1999 season. There were 2 TE’s there The Rams drafted.

Washington & Syracuse

Maybe. But I don't see the same movement skills on tape as the top guys. He's a smart, surehanded player. I think he'll have a good NFL career.

I actually love his open field speed & vision. He’s technique is only going to get better.

Mason Taylor’s window is SO LARGE.The way he described George Kittle as his favorite,or most influential to his style.

He’s my circle guy for VALUE!! The Penn St. TE is more NFL ready,but come a few years from now M.Taylor might be a TOP 10 TE.

He’s my guy I’d hammer the table for especially if he slips to it mid/ second rd ?

I believe he will be there but I don’t think the Rams want to give up that kinda capital to move into the 2nd.
…might as well grab him at #26 if he’s their guy. He won’t be there at #90.
