    from RANKING ALL 32 NFL SECONDARIES ENTERING WEEK 7

    https://www.profootballfocus.com/pro-ranking-all-32-nfl-secondaries-entering-week-7/

    17. Los Angeles Rams (Preseason rank: 27)

    Current nickel package: CB Trumaine Johnson, CB Troy Hill, SCB Lamarcus Joyner, S Maurice Alexander, S T.J. McDonald

    Most of the Rams’ secondary has actually performed well this season. Maurice Alexander and T.J. McDonald rank 10th and 26th in overall grade, respectively, out of 82 qualifying safeties. Lamarcus Joyner leads all defensive backs with 19 defensive stops and a position-best 9.1 run stop percentage. Unfortunately, Troy Hill has been the worst cornerback in coverage this season. His 336 yards allowed on 155 snaps in coverage measures out to one of the worst rates in the league.

    Just think…Hill is rated at the bottom of the list of CB’s and he replaced Sens….just how bad was Sens playing?

    If Hill continues with this trend they’re just going to have to bring in the “next man up” to get them through until Tru is ready. Worst case is they rush Tru back.

    Overall, Safeties have been a pleasant surprise and if they could get both Tru and EJ healthy at the same time the DB corps should be actually pretty good.

    I was in a windup, ready to unload here about Sens every single week. I thought the guy was terrible. Apparently, I was not alone in that assessment.
