can donald challenge the sack record again with a full off-season with the team.

i actually am good with the idea of gurley splitting carries. even with the big contract.

i always looked at the new orleans duo and wished the rams could have something similar.

and i always banged the table for the rams lightening the load for todd. i always felt like mcvay dialed gurley’s number far too often early in the season.

and i like the idea of the rams keeping defenses off balance by switching up the running attack. if goff is a boxer, then gurley is his right fist and hopefully henderson will be his left. or if he’s a southpaw then gurley is his left, and henderson is his right?

or maybe he’s more like an mma fighter…

uhhh… anyway. i think the offense just got better. i thought henderson was just a straight line speed guy at first, but the video and agility numbers disprove that. and it’s not like they drafted him in the first round.

not to mention brown.

i have no idea how good goff can become. he’s only just completed his third year. he probably won’t peak until another three years or he could regress.

we’ll just have to see. the only ones who have an idea are goff and the team.

we’ll see. should be fun. i hope he’s the rams’ qb for the next 17 years.

honestly i’d be happy if gurley got 950 rushing yards and 550 receiving yards.

and then henderson with 750 rushing yards and 350 receiving yards!

ha! that’d be something else.

he’s the 7th ranked safety at least according to pff.

he’s been solid the past 2 seasons.

i guess i’m waiting to see if he takes it to another level. maybe with weddle mentoring him he does.

and i’m guessing his preference is to stay in la. not that he’d take a discount, but with all things being equal contract-wise i’m guessing he’ll choose la.

right now i’m just thinking about what the defense looks like with weddle, kiser, gaines, long, rapp, and okoronkwo in the lineup.

can’t wait for training camp. i think i’m more excited about this season than last. i always favor the homegrown players over free agents, so it’ll be fun to see how the young guys like kiser, gaines, long, rapp, and okoronkwo do. and even on offense with henderson and everett potentially adding a few wrinkles. not to mention the new look oline with noteboom and allen.

lots of uncertainty but also lots of excitement.

dare i say i don’t think the defense skips a beat.

What is the “this” that did that?

Side note. You know, the Memphis coach watched a lot of tape of the McVay Rams and built a lot of it into his offense there.

for some reason i thought he has performed poorly in agility drills. but i found an article recently that showed his ss and 3-cone times. they’re actually pretty good. not elite level but good enough that they’ve quelled my concerns about his ability to cut. a ss time of 4.29 and a 3-cone of 7.00 is good.

and if he’s coming into an offense he already has familiarity with all the better.

his receiving ability also has me intrigued as well.

actually i just came across this article. his agility numbers according to this are actually not bad. not elite. but good.

short shuttle 4.29 seconds
3-cone 7.00 seconds

Henderson stood on most of his combine marks but did rerun the three-cone (7.00 seconds) and short shuttle (4.29 seconds).

i would go with what mcvay recommends. if he’s not sure, i wait.

if mcvay wants goff, sign him to the extension now.

i like ogbo. but i like almost all the draft picks. they can’t all be slam dunks can they?

rams could be relying on up to 3 players to start from that draft class.

and ogbo as a significant contributor.

if the rams pull it off, snead’s reputation goes through the roof.

only things maybe are he’s not long limbed. and he doesn’t have deep speed although i think 4.45 is fast enough.

Gerald Everett went from being the 50th (out of 51 TEs) as a rookie to 4th in just one year

In half as many snaps in 2018, Everett outperformed his colleague Tyler Higbee in receiving, and looks to further improve as a key blocker for the #Rams moving forward

i wanna see everett in more of those 3 wr sets with cooks, woods, and kupp.

the 2 te sets too.

he seems to have surpassed higbee receiving and blocking.

Gurley, no doubt at this point, knows he has to share time, and will be all in.

i don’t think he’ll care.
