Here are the present-day Rams who were on the roster before 2012:
Tim Barnes
Chase Reynolds
Robert Quinn
Lance Kendricks
Jake McQuaide
Sam Bradford
Rodger Saffold
Eugene Sims
James Laurinaitis
Chris LongCompare that to Seattle. How many players right now on their roster were there before Carroll arrived. It’s:
Jon Ryan (P)
Brandon MebaneNow compare that to SF. How many before Harbaugh:
Michael Crabtree
Frank Gore
Vernon Davis
Anthony Davis
Alex Boone
Mike Iupati
Joe Staley
Justin Smith
Ahmad Brooks
NaVorro Bowman
Patrick Willis
Andy Lee (P)January 4, 2015 at 12:49 pm #15507TSRFParticipantSo do you think this means that Fisher and Harbaugh took over already rising teams and that Carroll came in when the team was at rock bottom?
Or do you think Carroll is an egomaniac and just blew it up to reform it in his own image?
Or, is the real question how many of those 8 pre-Fisher Rams will still be on the roster in two years?January 4, 2015 at 12:54 pm #15508wvParticipantSo do you think this means that Fisher and Harbaugh took over already rising teams and that Carroll came in when the team was at rock bottom?

a great job of building a great team.
And he didnt have the RG3 windfall either.Still we dont know the future. Maybe
these young rams will win multiple Rings.
Who knows.w

Harbaugh just plain inherited a good team. Compare his list to Fisher’s list. Harbaugh’s list is mostly vets. Fisher’s isn’t.
I think Fisher intended to build around a core of inherited players. They were young, so he worked with them.
So to me that’s 3 different situations combined with 3 different approaches.
Back to Fisher. He did identify a core he liked, though at the same time, interestingly, there’s a list of Rams players he cut who are still contributing, including a few starters. Not even talking about the free agents they let walk like Gibson, Amendola, Mikkel, C.Dahl and Jackson. Talking about cuts, guys he got rid of before they were free agents: Bajema, Bannan, Fletcher, Gordy, Hoomanawanui, Kehl, Salas, Stewart. A lot of those are role players and situational guys and depth, but they’re still in the league.

Carrol “Rebuilt”
Fisher “Built around a young core”A reasonable view, imho.
Some posters obviously label the Fisher
approach/situation differently. Mostly
its semantics, probly. I can certainly see
how some posters would call what Fisher did
a ‘rebuild.’ I can also see how it could
be viewed as a “build-around-young-core” when
compared to what Carrol did.w

vHow about “reimagine” … that’s what Fisher did.

I dunno, I wonder.
See it seems to me that the situation dictated the approach.
If you were hired by SF, they had a great veteran team with a top defense, a good OL, and some weapons (Davis, Gore). You would go with that.
If you were hired by the Rams, you would recognize they had a young core, mostly because they had already been burned down in 2009 with a “start over” approach (plus they had fired the equipment manager, which is just a radically unthinkable deviation from all that is sacred). You would build around that core.
I looked at Seattle once and I think most of the players jettisoned in 2010 and 2011 when Carroll took over are not in the league. I think he inherited the poorest roster of all 3 coaches. The Rams list of guys still in football from the 2011 roster is much longer than Seattle’s list from the 2009 roster.
