Yay.

I hope that the Rams find a way to keep him. Obviously there’s no guarantee that all, or any of the linemen about to be drafted will even be ready to start this year. That said, I watched the Washington game over the weekend. It was a good reminder of how much Barksdale can struggle at times.

I’m guessing this was an April Fools thing. I hate April 1st more than any other day.

I tried to post images of combine measurables by position that were posted by @ukdraftfan, but apparently such a task is beyond my limited skill set. At any rate, I found the information interesting. Check out his images if you have time and the interest.

Greg Cosell joins Ross Tucker to break down the Offensive line prospects for the 2015 NFL Draft. Good detailed discussion with pro comparisons for many of the prospects.

As far as tackles go they both like Peat, but not a lot of positive comments about Flowers.

In the end I’m not going to get too worked up about what the NFL decides to do with the PAT, but having the players line up to smash into each other for a short yardage play seems counterintuitive when one considers the recent changes made in the name of player safety.

EDIT: I mean generally speaking currently PATs don’t involve a lot more than the opposing linemen standing up and breathing on each other.

Just to make things clear, I am drafting *Amari Cooper then La’el Collins at 10, if they are gone, I will try to trade down. That is just me though.

I’d be good with Cooper, Waynes, or an edge rusher. After that I’d be hoping for a trade down.

We are a pro Wes Anderson household and we loved Grand Budapest Hotel. We’ve seen’em all. Even “The Fantstic Mr. Fox” is great.

He is not just a guard. He could beat out Barksdale or replace Robinson if he got hurt. imo

I agree that he could probably play RT, but I’d hope for a trade down scenario if the Rams go this route. Don’t know if that’s possible this year though. I’m still Hoping for a Barksdale re-signing and then BPA in the first.

Maybe Fisher is still miffed because JT said the Rams would not beat the Broncos. If memory serves Fisher’s first comment at the post game PC was a jab at Thomas for his prediction. Actually, I don’t really think that’s the reason, but it’s an interesting relationship Fisher and Thomas seem to have.

Totally get the need to address oline this offseason and in the draft. That said the only way I want them to pick oline in the first round is if there is still a need at ROT. Even then I’d rather not pick a right tackle at number ten. I don’t know what trade down opportunities they’ll have though. There will be some good choices for the interior line in the 2nd, 3rd and maybe even the 4th round.

I don’t think it alters their draft strategy.

I’m sure oline help is on the agenda at some point, but they might be painting themselves into a corner on draft weekend if they can’t get something done soon.

Anyone believe that this makes a WR in the first less likely?

All of my friends/sources in Philly are saying that the Eagles have a deal with the Jets who covet Sam Bradford.

if this is true, maybe it was a three team trade?

If true, What the hell happens with the conditions? Do they just roll over to New York, or because Bradford doesn’t start a game for the Eagles, the conditional 3rd rounder goes to Philadelphia?
