two teams that have great defenses. carolina with the second ranked rushing offense in the league. denver’s passing offense ranked only 14th in the league.

so you can win with defense and running.

so three of the past four super bowl winners will have been based primarily around defense and the run game.

that makes me smile.

my guess is wichmann and brown become at least average starters.

and yeah. absolutely nailed the first two picks.

if mannion were to become the eventual starter they will have essentially laid down the foundation of their offense in one draft.

chances are that isn’t the case but nice to imagine.

Signs of promise. Upward trajectory. IMO.

.

yeah people have to remember he is actually younger than rob havenstein, and he came from a program that probably wasn’t the best for developing young linemen whereas rob came from a pro linemen producing factory. plus he plays the less difficult of the two positions.

on the other hand there were reports he wasn’t taking his job seriously. let’s hope it’s just a matter of maturity.

and yeah they did add a lot of talent on the oline last year. some good draft picks. some solid signings. hopefully it all comes together next year.

so what is the final verdict on robinson 2015?

i’m wondering what people’s opinions are on his 2015 season. complete failure or signs of promise?

also what are the options if he doesn’t cut it? battle?

i do hope they stay in san diego. but i also hope they don’t do it at the expense of the city or the fans, but that’s not gonna happen.

so san diego has one year to find a solution.

i think it gets done. i don’t think the nfl wants 2 teams in la at this point.

That sounds like they are talking about Cleveland, not the Rams.

It looks like Favre vs Rogers. Wouldn’t we rather have Wentz?

i fear wentz won’t be available anymore unless the rams trade up.

i’m stating the obvious here but it all hinges on robinson. they seem to be solid at the four other spots. havenstein might be the second coming of runyan. and i think a healthy brown and wichmann could really take off next season. barnes should be solid at center. but yeah. if robinson could reach close to his potential, this line could quickly become a strength on thus team.

Ourlads has Dak Prescott as #1 rated QB….

i like dak prescott. i think he’d fit this offense real well. he’d be mostly a game manager with some running ability. imagine trying to defend him and gurley and austin.

plus he’d be available in the second round.

i’d go with janoris.

i don’t know what grubman is trying to say but i read one thing that makes sense. having a team in los angeles will be key when negotiating a new tv deal. i think that’s what the owners are ultimately banking on rather than the real estate project around the stadium.

it will also act as a home base for nfl west with nfl films and the combine (after the contract expires with indianapolis) and the draft and superbowls.

We’ll see how this affects TV ratings. I’m not 100% sure they will go up. But, if it was inevitable that an L.A. team would get the NFL a better TV contract, that’s not really an argument for SK’s vision as it was for moving any viable team into L.A.

true but i think the owners also wanted the shinier toy.

Thats all i got.

probably not although i’m afraid to ask.

most of all they need to get a legit quarterback. that’ll probably take care of a lot of problems.

i’m wondering if it’s going to be hard to hire coaches until after they’ve settled into los angeles. i mean they don’t even know where the training facilities are going to be yet.
