    hopefully, the rams fix the oline. hopefully, foles stays healthy. hopefully, bailey, austin, quick, and britt can continue to get better.

    and then the rams can get a better idea of what they have in these receivers.

    There are at least 3 other lineman that I like as much if not more than Scherff.

    Cooper is not a top 10 wr in MY book.

    He scares nobody.

    He doesn’t have great size, he doesn’t have great speed,he doesn’t have great quickness, he doesn’t have great hands.

    My top 10 wr you better have to gameplan for him. With Cooper I’d put my #2 corner on him and call it a day.

    He’s overvalued in MY estimation.

    I’d take a trade down, get an extra pick and better value.

    i don’t think i’d agree with that. i think cooper will be better than bailey. i see him as an isaac torry type receiver. doesn’t wow you with the measurables but will be extremely productive. and the rams don’t have that right now in the wr corps.

    but i also see the value in drafting a quality lineman there too.

    i’d take collins over scherff personally. or trade down and pick erving.

    i’m not sure if i have expressed this opinion enough. but i also have another scenario where the rams trade down and pick cameron erving. and that would be perfectly fine with me. plug him in at center. or start him out at guard with the intention of eventually plugging him in at center. barnes, jones, or rhaney starts at center.

    then draft a guard tackle prospect in the second round.

    and re-sign barksdale.

    i would give it serious consideration. if i could pull it off with just a fourth rounder, then i’d look to draft offensive line in the second round.

    but i’m also a guy willing to trade down and pick gurley. and i know we’d disagree on that as well.

    Well, that is all a matter of how much we value players not on what is the correct strategy. imo So, your opinion is valid.

    well i think your opinion is completely valid too!

    haha!

    i think amari cooper has the potential to be a bigger faster version of isaac bruce. that’s why i try and trade up to get him. i really like this guy.

    I don’t really believe in trading up. The cost is almost always too high and who knows the player might drop. I would have traded up for two players, Jackson and Green. Green never got close enough for me to really consider, though. Or you could consider trading up like for a red chip or blue chip player if you aren’t in the range, maybe. Short answer, NO, I am not trading up for Cooper. Mostly cause I am happy to draft Collins. Although I take Cooper if he drops.

    i would give it serious consideration. if i could pull it off with just a fourth rounder, then i’d look to draft offensive line in the second round.

    i liked the read on collins.

    still think #10 would be too high but i wouldn’t be disappointed if they picked him there.

    i also like tre jackson from florida state. although much lower in the draft.

    If the Raiders come, what are the odds of one city having 3 incompetent NFL owners in a single generation. Geez!
    by Bob in Denver 4:11 PM

    You made me laugh out loud with this one. And imagine what the stadium would look like, with a ring of honor for Cardinals, Rams, and Raiders!

    This is kind of sad for a team’s legacy, particularly the players involved. They become memories of a ghost town. Yes–they may be appreciated for what they did but their attachment to the city is dead, really, because the team itself is dead and if anything people probably would prefer not to think about the team that left them.

    And the new city? Well, the GSOT never happened there.

    I feel like a nomad fan for a nomad team.

    Speaking for myself, it doesn’t matter. I’ve always been a nomad fan–never picked the local team to follow. But there are people who do, and I appreciate that. Kids who grew up going to games with their mom and dad and part of that experience is WHY they are fans.

    I know some people could care less about the fans of St. Louis and will be quick to say that the fans of St. Louis didn’t care about THEM when the Rams moved from L.A.

    I get that.

    But the process and practice of moving NFL teams should make everyone a little sick.

    not so much the relocation. but yeah the process of holding a city hostage. trying to squeeze as much as you can out of them. that sucks hard.

    I’ve been told that if the team relocates, many employees will have to re-apply for their jobs. Which I think would mean Kroenke would not pay relocation costs.

    If true…this is really sucky of them.

    that’d be a real kick in the balls.

    i’m expecting a big year from robinson. rams need to start hitting on these first rounders. big time. especially robinson given that he’s on the oline.

    well what was the case before williams? what were the defenses like before? simple? complex?

    i’m not sure it needed simplification as much as some guys like ogletree and jenkins need to get their heads right.

    ogletree needs to show up in shape. jenkins needs to not gamble so much.

    oh and brockers needs to keep his weight up.

    i worry about those alabama backs although ingram had a good 2014.

    they do need to pick a running back somewhere though.

    get him and collins. robinson saffold collins barksdale. that’d be a nice line to run behind. barnes or jones at center?

    i would not want parker. i’d rather they go ol or gurley at that point if they can’t trade down.

    i don’t think cooper makes it past top 5.

    yeah. the one thing i would definitely disagree with is i think they’re a little too optimistic about the league doing the honorable thing.

    i don’t think i’d put the chances of the rams staying at an even 50-50.

    one or two of these guys should fall to the second round no?

    on the other hand rams have passed up on some good guard prospects in the past and are now paying for it. warford in particular comes to mind.

    mr. kroenke. he’s the devil.

    yeah. he has positioned himself well. and he gives the league many options. the league is very happy with stan.

    that was a good listen.

    i agree with a lot of what they say.

    just from the standpoint of getting any offensive lineman in free agency would be great. but to also get the continuity and to not have to overpay for it would be huge. if they can re-sign him the rams played that one well.

    i’m curious as to what the rams think about hundley. as far as measurables go he’s about as ideal as you can get. you just wonder about the mental aspect.

    cooper is one of those he’s most likely out of our reach, but if he gets to #8, do you consider trading up for him?

    i agree. i’m feeling pretty positive about foles right now. i think they do need to improve the running game as well but yeah. if they can fix the oline. foles should exceed expectations.
