    ==========

    Its a bold plan. 160 pounds.

    By moving Corbett to center and with Evans at RG….

    Our OL just got bigger and physically stronger

    Corbett is our smallest starting O-Lineman at 6-4, 306lbs and every one else is 6-5 and over 310lbs

    To add in our OL bench players,,,, they are all over 310lbs with the exception of Allen (and I don’t believe he will make the 53 man squad, but if he does, I’ll be really surprised)

    I wonder if McVay wanted a bigger line
    or if it just turned out that way.

    Bears, Bucs, 49ers, Titans, Giants, Ravens — some seriously ‘physical’ teams
    on the horizon.

    Would be nice if McV could figure out how to win a game
    against Shannahan.

    McVay seems to think of Stafford as more of a’clutch problem solver’ than Goff.
    Progressions, recognizing coverages. Things Longtime-Veterans know.

    I guess this is the Oline, right?
    Whitworth/Noteboom,
    Edwards(5th round 2019)
    Corbett (33rd pick Browns)
    Evans (3rd rd, 2019)
    Havenstein (2nd rd, 2015)

    I’m worried about the Ends, more than the middle.
    Hav is tough and all, but the real-good-DEs seem to outplay him too much.
    And Whitworth/Noteboom…I guess thats not bad, but…

    I don’t believe not picking an oline prospect hurt then this year as the Rams have some decent depth.

    I’m skeptical. “Decent depth” is…decent.
    But is this Oline good enough to stand up to a run of Playoff defenses?
    Havenstein? The 40 year-old LT ?

    I know, they know a lot more than i do, but…I’m skeptical.

    It would not surprise me to see that tiny-tutu make some
    big plays early in the year, and the OLine look good early in the year,
    but its a long season. And I have a feeling they are gonna be
    scrambling for Oline help.

    155 lbs. Sigh.

    I assume, Martz…i mean, McVay, thinks he can devise a plan
    that will somehow protect the Tutu.
    That he can somehow scheme him into safety.

    That is highly highly unlikely.

    The way to win is to let Stafford be Stafford. That is your
    superstar. Dammit they should have drafted a solid OLineman.

    Surely they could have dredged up some speed-demon track star
    for a gadget-project in the 7th round.

    From OURLADS
    … but if he is paired with a successful deep passer and there are other complementary weapons around him, he is the kind of playmaker that can bring an offense to another level….

    ===========

    Obviously, this is the hope.

    They are gambling, they can build an OLine
    without a premium OL pick.

    We shall see.

    Well, of course, no-one knows, but the first pick was astonishing.
    155 Lbs. Just astonishing.

    First thing i thought of was this:
    ————-
    LA Times: “…The Rams’ success the last few seasons apparently made an impression on the Detroit Lions.

    Ten days after the Lions hired former Rams college scouting director Brad Holmes as general manager, Holmes will hire Ray Agnew as assistant general manager, a person with knowledge of the situation said.

    Agnew has been the Rams’ director of pro scouting the last four years….”

    I’m in shock.

    I dont wanna over-react, and who knows the future,
    but this just smacks of arrogance to me.
    Like McV thinks he can create all these big plays with this guy.

    But how many 155 lb players have made a difference
    in the NFL?

    The vast weight of history is against
    this.

    WTF.

    I dont think a team has ever won a Ring
    when they only have 1 player is in the top 50
    as far as merchandise sales.

    This whole organization needs to be blown up.

    The whole thing was weird, because Attorney’s dont ‘file charges.’
    The police/prosecutors investigate incidents and file or
    dont file charges.

    At any rate, during a pandemic, I’m surprised
    AD is out at an “after-hours club in the early morning hours.”
