Segment 4 – Jim Thomas 5.1.15
Jim Thomas & Joe Strauss 5.4.15
im Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch jonis the show, remembers Terri Garr use to be regular on the Letterman show, grades for the Rams draft, giving the Rams a C+, not sure who else the Rams can get from free agent to help offensive line, option of Joe Barksdale, trading with the Panthers was beneficial getting two lineman plus quarterback, wondering if Robert Havenstein could play immediately, picking QB Sean Mannion, seems to be more excitement from Northwest about the move, seems to be decent backup choice for Nick Foles, have to like Rams picking Bud Sasser, former Mizzou WR ought to compete with Chris Givens for roster spot, other picks that have some potential, wondering if Kenny Britt can be true #1 receiver, wondering about the Rams next move possibly making deal for offensive lineman, not much doing with the stadium situation, meetings around the corner involving the league in San Francisco
What the hell is a “perpetual rebuilding process?” Doesn’t every team participate in the draft every year? What do they want, Trung Canidate type picks?
The Rams have to play rookies because they totally sucked when Fisher took over. They haven’t reached the point of the luxury of drafting for depth. They are drafting for starters still. And they are getting closer.
IMO…they would already be there if not for injuries.
Imagine an offense like this, with each player listed playing at his best as a Ram. So, for example, Long was PFF’s 7th ranked OT in 2013. Wells played well in the 2nd half of 2012. Imagine them continuing as that.
