Very interesting that they ignored the Oline. Maybe its a good thing. Maybe it means they already have talent. I dunno.

i hope. but i also hope they use today to find some developmental prospects.

We needed to draft a starting CB to play next to Jalen Ramsey. Burgess is a Safety/Nickle CB.

don’t they still have hill? and i really like david long…. or at least the idea of david long. i’m hoping that guy steps up this year.

ehhh. we’ll see. not really impressed.

i keep reading about how he played in a poor offense. but this is college. running backs usually produce in college. there are exceptions of course. i hope he’s the exception.

i did read good things about his vision. which is the one thing gurley lacked. great vision.

boom or bust.

i like his measurables. but he barely played because of injuries. we’ll see.

i like edwards-helaire. a lot.

especially with gurley gone they need a guy who can break plays open. and he could help out in the receiving game as well.

maybe a little high to be picking him there but shoot if that guy isn’t explosive.

hey, everyone.

hope everyone out there is healthy and safe. i hope your family is safe.

i said at the beginning of the year that i thought this year was going to suck. boy did i underestimate exactly how much this year was actually going to suck. maybe the craziest year i’ve ever experienced. i don’t know about all of you.

but take care and hopefully happier days are ahead.

I may have missed Kenneth Murray. I was trying to do this draft, and even during a pandemic,the building I live in, people kept bothering me. They just don’t listen to social distancing. Frustrating. I can’t go back in and fix it now. Once you leave, you can’t edit anymore.

no worries. rams can just get him as a udfa! ha!

“A guy like Jordyn Brooks from Texas Tech who can fly, I think he would be a great replacement when you lose Littleton,” Jeremiah said. “To be able to plug him in right there, I think he’d be a great fit and somebody that kind of plays with high, high tempo, which I know they appreciate there in that organization.”

i was looking at brooks too.

if the could go brooks and ol, i wouldn’t be disappointed.

sounds like it’s pretty much a consensus that this wr class is strong, so it wouldn’t be horrible if they went wr…

i like tee higgins as well. tall but also long (34″ arms). can play all three wr positions according to reports.

or i’d like to see them draft a tight end/h-back. i like higbee. but i’d like to see them upgrade on everett. a guy who can block and catch. doesn’t have to be in the second round.

apparently, a second worker has tested positive for coronavirus.

i’d be fine with reagor. and with the second second rounder i’d like to see oline.

only thing i worry about is the running game cuz this is a play action offense. so an rb in the later rounds.

oh and also. saw him run some out of the backfield. could see him running those jet sweeps for the rams.

my question is does mcvay want to continue with the 3 wr sets he had been using. or does he want to go to more 2 tight end sets like he had done with washington? reynolds i think could step up and at least partially fill the cooks role.

or with this being a strong wr class, maybe he figures get a top wr if he’s available and build the offense around the talent you have?

i’m actually ok with this. rams need linebackers and olinemen. even an rb.

i’m not so comfortable with allen at center. i’d like them to draft one this year. i’d like them to draft a left tackle for the future as well. and some linebackers.

i think with higbee emerging cooks was a luxury. hopefully, reynolds can be the deep threat. kupp, woods, and higbee should be enough with the other receivers complementing them. i think even a guy like edwards-helaire in the second round could add another receiving threat.

i’m excited.

Andrew Whitworth is excited about Henderson’s potential in the Rams’ offense, calling him a “special athlete.”

“He’s quick. When he puts his foot in the ground and goes, you can see it. A couple games there throughout the season, he got some opportunities and when he touched the football, he looked like lightning in a bottle,” Whitworth said. “It’s one of those things where as a young player, he’s going to learn things over his career and right now, it’s taking care of his body and how he can be in the best shape possible and how he can get through a season. that’s always a tough season for running backs, of course. So the more availability he has for us, I think we look forward to it because he’s a special athlete and somebody who can really help us.”

i haven’t necessarily given up on henderson, but i’d like to see them add to the rb corps.

i wouldn’t mind seeing edwards-helaire in the second round. a combo of him and henderson with brown as the bruiser would be interesting.

I think his arm has gotten stronger since he was drafted. I watched every throw in college and I don’t think any were 50 yards in the air.

i think so too. he’s gotten noticeably bigger since he was drafted. just filling out.

so it’s likely that his arm strength has increased too.
