    This quote from Lions GM Brad Holmes as me arching an eyebrow this morning

    “Before the trade, I remember (Rams GM) Les (Snead) asked me if I wanted Jared and I said, ‘Yes, I do want Jared.’ He said, ‘Ok, I’m just asking because I’m getting a lot of calls.’

    from https://theramswire.usatoday.com/2021/06/18/rams-calvin-johnson-matthew-stafford-van-jefferson-comments/

    During an appearance on “The Hook,” [Calvin] Johnson discussed Stafford’s departure from Detroit and said he talked to the quarterback recently, who told him that he’s doing well in Los Angeles.

    “I was talking to Matthew yesterday. Matthew’s doing well, I’m happy for him because he’s happy that he’s out in California,” Johnson said. “Him and his beautiful family there, they’re loving their time out there. So when he’s comfortable, he’s good where he’s at, you can only expect good things from him, so I look forward to seeing him out there.”

    Then Johnson gave Rams receiver Van Jefferson a shoutout, saying Van’s dad, Shawn Jefferson, was his wide receivers coach in Detroit.

    “Plus on top of that, we’ve got a friend out there in Van Jefferson,” he said. “Shawn Jefferson, he was my receivers coach in Detroit for a long time. His son’s playing with Matthew now, so that’s pretty cool.”

    Right – and, I think people underestimate how much team personnel talk with each other, even during the season. But if people didn’t already think something was brewing, those couple weeks lit the beacons of Gondor.

    Bucky Brooks, from Ranking NFL’s top five lockdown corners: https://www.nfl.com/news/ranking-nfl-s-top-five-lockdown-corners-plus-what-odell-beckham-jr-s-return-mean?campaign=Twitter_atn

    1. Jalen Ramsey
    Los Angeles Rams
    The most bodacious cover corner in the game claims his spot as the NFL’s ultimate CB1. Ramsey not only possesses rare physical traits that make it nearly impossible for a receiver to escape the line untouched, but he is a refined technician with superb instincts and awareness on the island. The two-time All-Pro surrendered just 32 receptions and gave up fewer than 25 receiving yards in 11 contests in 2020, per PFF.

    from https://theramswire.usatoday.com/2021/06/21/rams-sean-mcvay-matthew-stafford-quote-better-than-advertised/

    McVay has raved about Stafford all offseason, but he got especially candid in an interview with Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated. [interview = here:https://www.si.com/nfl/2021/06/21/mmqb-sean-mcvay-expectations-burnout-covid-protocol-vaccines ]

    “Bro, this dude’s a bad MF-er,” McVay told Breer, laughing. “Whatever people say about him, as good as it can be, he’s even better than advertised. It makes sense to him. The guy’s ability to see the game, his ability to draw on his experiences, the feel that he has, it’s pretty special and unique. And man, his feel for people, his authentic way of connecting with his teammates, his coaches, this guy, it’s great being around him.”

    from espn, Surprise players you should know from NFL minicamps for all 32 teams: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/31660640/surprise-players-know-nfl-minicamps-all-32-teams#LAR

    Los Angeles Rams

    TE Jacob Harris

    Tyler Higbee was sidelined for the offseason program, which allowed Harris, a fourth-round pick from Central Florida, to take significant reps throughout voluntary and minicamp practices. “Jacob Harris is a guy who has definitely stood out,” Rams coach Sean McVay said. “Just his overall speed, athleticism, you kind of feel him on the field.” McVay cautioned that Harris, who is 6-foot-5, 211 pounds and played receiver in college, must be evaluated outside of 7-on-7 play, but also commended his improvement since arriving in L.A. Harris will compete with second-year pro Brycen Hopkins and Johnny Mundt for playing time behind Higbee. — Lindsey Thiry

    Don’t forget about Darrell Henderson! Last season Henderson showcased that he can be an explosive runner with an ability to move the chains. When his number was called upon he was very consistent and productive. Excited to see him back with the team in 2021

    feel really good about the running game. not just akers and henderson. but funk too.

    from https://www.therams.com/news/nfl-com-s-gil-brandt-stafford-kupp-among-10-most-exciting-new-quarterback-wide-r

    NFL.com senior analyst Gil Brandt went about ranking the top 10 new quarterback-wide receiver combos heading into the 2021 season.

    Coming in at No. 10: Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford and wide receiver Cooper Kupp.

    “Of the two of (Robert Woods and Kupp), I have an especially positive inkling about Kupp to thrive as the passing attack bounces back from a relatively down year; just take a gander at this nifty practice-field connection between the two,” Brandt wrote as part of his analysis.
