    Lyle Sendlein Is still out there I think. I don’t know if he’s a whole lot better than what the Rams currently have on their roster, however. He’s got more experience then any of the Rams current centres though.

    Based on Wagner’s prediction for the Vikings game I guess shouldn’t bother spending the money and making the 6 hour drive south to Minneapolis for the November 8th showdown.

    Usually I’m not all that interested in the written pieces from the official website, but I’ve really enjoyed reading the Scout Tales series.

    Boylhart is the only person that I’ve seen not really sing Parker’s praises. He didn’t hate him or anything, but he doesn’t consider him a first rounder. Thinks he pushes off too much, among other things.

    Yes, and it makes me hope for big things, or even okay things, from Barnes, Jones and Rhaney. Even 2 of those guys being serviceable as starters would be nice.

    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 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.

    I remember last year’s oline discussion between Cosell and Tucker Mir was excellent. So is this one.

    Regarding Humphries, Charles Davis has him as his number one OT.

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

    There’s really nothing left in free agency. So you’d be talking draft. And some of the top guys in the draft are Brandon Scherff, La’el Collins, Andrus Peat

    I like Flowers just as much as any of those guys and probably more than Schreff if we’re strictly talking about OTs. DJ Humphries is worthy of mention too.

    EDIT: I guess he did use the word “some.”

    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.

    There’s also part of me that is intrigued with the idea of taking Gurley. Of course, that would be contingent on there being some decent run blocking.

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

    Getting Barksdale back would be great. This would give them some flexibility with that first pick.

    As it stands right now I have my doubts that Foles is the long term answer. I like a healthy Bradford (does such a person even exist?) better. My concerns about Foles are based mostly on the current state of the Rams oline. I can’t reach a state of cautious optimism about Foles until I’ve reached a state of equanimity about the oline.

    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.

    Even with the obvious need, I do not want the Rams to draft a guard at ten. I’m a fan of Scherff, but there are good guards to be had in the 2nd and 3rd rounds.

    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.

    At this point I’d be happy with Barksdale re-signing and then the Rams can go BPA in the first round of the draft and focus on the interior line in rounds 2 through 4. If they can’t get Barksdale back then it looks like they may have painted themselves into a corner and they’ll have to find a RT in round one. They’ll still have to use early picks on the interior line after that of course.

    Depending on who else is signed/drafted he sounds like this year’s Mike Person.

    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.
