I was with Jeff Fisher last night, and the Rams are really excited about OL Jamon Brown; they think the third-rounder has Pro Bowl potential

that’s good to hear even if it’s just coach speak. if nothing else, i like the fact that this oline is young and with potential rather than old and with injuries.

Coach is defending his pick before a single down is played. I remain skeptical yet hopeful.

The upside to being a Rams fan is heartbreak.

Sprinkles are for winners.

Is he “defending” it? Or bragging? An why that particular one? Why single out Brown to “defend”?

I think he said it because he believes it. The issue is whether he’s right.

I’m too tired to do a search on Fisher and the use of “pro bowl” in reference to his draft picks but I think he is overstating the case a wee bit in mid July.

But the phrase “pro bowl potential” is not an overstatement if it’s true. To my knowledge he has not said it of other draft picks. I think it’s fine to be enthusiastic about a pick.

Sounds good.

They really need these young guys to come together quickly.

Here’s one thing about that—on Brown. In 2013, they would have taken Warford if Ogletree weren’t there at 30. In 2014, they reportedly tried to trade up for Zack Martin. Those are 2 of (if not the 2) best guards drafted in the last couple of years.

This doesn’t etch the Brown thing in stone or anything, but, they do seem to have very good taste in rookie guards.
