InvaderRamModeratorYou want Talib and Weddle for their smarts and leadership, and both can still play. But Weddle has not been making big plays recently.
Last year in 16 games Weddle had 0 INTs and 3 PDs, compared to 2017, when he had 6 and 8 respectively.
yeah. mostly leadership and consistency. if he can be just a modest improvement over the joyner of last season i’ll be happy especially at a lower salary.
pff graded weddle 10th and joyner 28th last season. and obviously this is only one way to measure them. i don’t know why joyner slipped last year. i don’t know if it was mental or physical or chemistry. who knows. but hopefully weddle can just bring that much more consistency. and if jj can make strides at the other safety spot (he was ranked 7th by pff), i’ll take that. i really do think jj has just a bit more potential left to tap. maybe enough to make up for whatever athleticism weddle may have lost to age.
InvaderRamModeratori’d like to see them sign anthony barr and then draft best dlineman available at 31.
drool.
draft another pass rusher in the later rounds. and a defensive back.
InvaderRamModeratori like it. a little worried about his age but was the supposed qb of the number one defense last year?
but had zero interceptions last year…
from a leadership standpoint he should add something.
InvaderRamModeratoryeah. i think burns unfortunately will be long gone.
lawrence has a chance of dropping due to the positive test result.
InvaderRamModeratorJust puttin the obvious in black n white. But. Kiser take’s Littleton’s spot and Littleton takes Barron’s spot.
yes. which i think might be a better fit for littleton.
InvaderRamModeratorreally hope kiser is the answer. then they need to address outside linebacker.
this is gonna be a big test for the front office.

InvaderRamModeratorI don’t want to draft a LBer, Safety, CB, or Offensive player in the first round in this year’s draft. I am going Dline, Edge, or trade down
i agree except for oline. i think protecting goff is paramount. so they better be sure allen is ready. and noteboom if saffold leaves.
InvaderRamModeratorFor all you Dexter lover’s
haha.
seriously though. he’s got the size. 6’4″ 340 lbs. length. 34 3/4″ arms. by the way he lifted 225 36 times with those insanely long arms. and his legs carried those 340 pounds 40 yards in 5.05 seconds. i just wish he coulda finished the rest of the workout.
i think he’s got more pass rush potential than we might think. but more than that just occupying blockers and collapsing the pocket, he’ll make everyone else better. his closest comparison would be linval joseph or even haloti ngata.
you don’t find guys who can generate his kind of power. shoot. ask him to drop 10 pounds, and he’ll still be able to generate an insane of power while gaining some more quickness.

InvaderRamModeratorLawrence is ok. I just think Simmons and Tillery are better. I am fine with keeping Brockers, too. I think the Rams will use the first round draft choice on some kind of pass rusher. imo
Simmons and Tillery have some pass rush in them, more than Lawrence. They can play DE in a 3-4. They said Tillery can even do a bit of LBer. Simmons can play a 3 technique.they should go best player available. if that’s simmons or tillery so be it.
or if they trade down, that’s cool too.
even an edge rusher. even if they re-sign fowler or get a fa. not sure ebukam is the answer and who knows about okoronkwo. even of that edge rusher is in the middle rounds. they need four guys who can legitimately compete for playing time on the edges.
tillery at linebacker would be wild. what intrigues me about tillery is he came to notre dame as an offensive lineman, so he’s relatively raw compared to other prospects, but he’s also got that disposition you want in a defensive lineman.
InvaderRamModeratorwell if brockers stays i’m on the draft dexter lawrence train.
i know ag will disagree but a 340 pounder who moves that fast with that kind of length?
drool.
InvaderRamModeratorben banogu and jamal davis too. long and athletic. this looks like a good opportunity for the rams.
InvaderRamModeratorJordan Brailford Oklahoma St. 6025 252 4.65 4.66 1.62 22 DNP 37.5 10-6 9 1/8 32 1/2 Okay … I don’t know how many clubs are seeing what I’m seeing. At OKst. they moved him around mercilessly because of his athleticism, from DT to the slot. But at the East West game, he was unstoppable just playing DE. I think he’s horrifically underrated. Im looking at him as early as the fourth regardless of what we have taken so far.
interesting. i’d take him in the lower rounds.
InvaderRamModeratoroline projects to be
whit noteboom allen blythe havenstein
should be both exciting and terrifying.
InvaderRamModeratorIf there’s any Karma-Justice in this Universe,
someday, eons from now, a Lion-oid being will have Kronky’s head on a bathroom wall.on the planet thundera?
InvaderRamModeratori’d actually be much more comfortable if they got a fa like houston or barr. someone proven.
and then get a defensive lineman with the first pick.
InvaderRamModeratorBurns is another guy to keep your eye on. Although it is doubtful we would be lucky enough for him to fall to us.
good length too 33 7/8″ arms. 36″ vert.
good 3 cone drill too at 7.01.
InvaderRamModeratorAnother DL the #Rams met with formally: Notre Dame’s Jerry Tillery. Told me he could definitely see himself fitting in in L.A with the #Rams.
i like what i read about him.
very much in the richard seymour/deforest buckner/arik armstead mold in terms of length, size, speed, strength, explosion numbers.
plus he’s produced in college.
my only question is does he last that long? seems like a good prospect.
InvaderRamModeratorMaybe Jerry Tillery will be there.
i think tillery would be a good way to go too.
he’d be a good replacement for brockers. maybe even an upgrade.
InvaderRamModeratorBesides that, he’s got itsy bitsy hands.
he does have those long arms though.
woulda been nice to see him perform at the combine, but he had a big red flag pop up.
InvaderRamModeratorDeep draft?
that’s what they say.
and at least today, lots of athleticism on display. dline and edge rushers.
even devin white and devin bush showed out.
they could trade back and still get a front seven player.
InvaderRamModeratorwell. one more day to go.
lots of talent on display today. somebody’s gonna be there at 31 or they can trade down.
dline or edge rusher. maybe even a guy like devin bush?
somebody will be there. and of course a run on qbs should push guys down.
InvaderRamModeratorso joe barry is leading the lb drills. that’s good especially considering the rams need linebackers. although i do like kiser a lot. littleton too if they can re-sign him.
InvaderRamModeratormontez sweat 4.4 40 36″ arms 260 pounds.
he will not be there when the rams pick.
but this group is definitely the group to watch. rams need to get their guy whoever that is.
InvaderRamModeratorHe would be fine. A number of mocks have him going to the Rams. I would rather take a chance on Simmons or trade down.
ferguson is not participating in the combine due to a past issues with domestic violence. as is simmons.
rashan gary 6’4″ 277 pounds 34″ arms 9 5/8″ hands just ran a 4.59. you could line him up as a 3-4 de or an edge rusher holy crap!
InvaderRamModeratorHe is certainly in play, but what about Jeffery Simmons? I get the feeling that the Rams really want an edge guy, even if they resign Fowler.
don’t know as much about simmons. edge rusher is a possibility too. i just think you plug lawrence in at nose tackle, and he not only makes your edge rushers better but he frees up donald too.
maybe you pick up an edge rusher later and let him, ebukam, okoronkwo, and possibly fowler compete.
InvaderRamModeratordl and lb today.
dexter lawrence at 342 pounds just ran a 5.05 40.
wowsers. unfortunately he came up lame at the end of the run. he also threw up 36 reps on the bench press. with 34.75″ arms. i mean goodness. will have to wait until his pro day to see the rest of the numbers.
that’s the guy i want if he drops. he could given he tested positive for a ped. obviously, the rams would have to do their homework.
InvaderRamModeratori should also add that hockenson looked fluid in drills compared to fant. just my opinion.
Dalton Risner is the name to watch. imo
Otherwise I think they go defense or trade down.i think trade down is best. i do wanna see oline at some point. risner sounds like a center/guard prospect with potential to even play right tackle.
InvaderRamModeratorshort arms
really short armstrex arms.
tight ends. i know the rams don’t need one, but the two iowa tight ends are outrageous.
noah fant is just a freak, but the better fit for the rams might be hockenson.
only a 4.7 40 but still good for his size. but his agility (4.18 short shuttle) and explosion (37.5″ vert) numbers are impressive.
he’s got short arms but equally devastating in the blocking game as he is in the passing game. he would complete that offense.

InvaderRamModeratorearly winner for oline is garrett bradbury from nc state – center. projected by brooks to go to the rams.
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/garrett-bradbury?id=32194252-4109-2951-18e8-697b9ff5297c
good size. athletic. although rams supposedly really like allen from what i’ve read.
defense starts tomorrow.
InvaderRamModeratorVincent Bonsignore@VinnyBonsignore
Best sense I can get, if any stem cell treatment is being contemplated for Todd Gurley’s knee issue, the suggestion/idea is not coming from the #Rams.first of all. what the fuck?
second of all. i heard stem cell therapy might not be all it’s cracked up to be.
third of all. what the fuck???
