Continues to show improvement in that area.
A great rep here from an edge perspective. Contains the edge and forces the play inside. Sheds his block and makes the tackle. pic.twitter.com/CKyDmc210e

znModeratorbut i would still like to see another edge opposite him next season.
Could Mathis be that guy? Against the Eagles he had 2 pressures in 10 snaps and 1 qb hit in the ARZ game. His first time playing all season was against the Eagles.

You know who else was Rams 3rd round pick out of Tennessee?
Leonard Little (in 98).
znModeratorNFL Rookie Watch@NFLRookieWatxhByron Young wasn’t recruited at all coming out of high school, and ended up taking two jobs at Dollar General and Burger King.
One day, he saw a flyer about a tryout at Georgia Military College, tried out, and ended up making the team.
After just one season, Young gained the attention of many D1 schools and committed to Tennessee.
Young dominated at Tennessee, and turned himself into a third round pick in this past NFL Draft.
Now, Young leads all rookies in pressures (25) and QB hits (8) through six weeks.

Ahkello Witherspoon and Kevin Dotson are facing their former team this Sunday vs the Steelers, these two have been phenomenal underrated pickups from the front office. Ahkello has had a top 5 coverage grade and Dotson is the 2nd highest graded guard in the NFL.znModeratorKobie Turner continues to jump off the tape.
Played his most snaps of the season without Bobby Brown in the lineup. Was arguably his best game. Credited with three run stops.
Does a good job getting off his block here and taking away the cutback lane. pic.twitter.com/SqIfLD2dVb

znModeratori worry less about stafford, but i think donald has about two years left past this season. there’s not many defensive linemen if any who can produce at a high level past 34 years old. 2025 will be his age 34 season.
Yeah, I thought he would tail off a bit this year, but I’m not sure he has. He’s been explosive as Deacon and as rock-solid consistent as Merlin. Best Defensive player of the decade. My wild speculation is, he plays two more years and then rides off into the sunset. w v
Looking at equivalent players, like John Randle and Warren Sapp and a couple of others.
AD is in his 10th year.
Randle played for 14 years and was tailing off but still productive in year 13. 14 years for AD would be 2026.
Sapp played for 13 yeas and was tailing off but still productive in year 12. 13 years for AD would be 2o25.
Alan Page played for 15 years and was still productive in year 15. For AD 15 years would be 2027.”
Randy White played for 14 years and was tailing off but still productive in year 13.
Steve McMichael played for 15 years and was tailing off but still productive in year 14.

fwiw, yes they have changed completely…on run blocking anyway. I don’t know about pass blocking schemes though you would think not.

“All the credit to Sean, just coming out there and trusting us,” veteran RT Rob Havenstein said. “A chance to get out there and set your pads, truly, and not really let what they were doing affect what we wanted to do.

The second highest rated GUARD in football ? Kevin DotsonBlaine Grisak@bgrisakTST
Rams GM Les Snead deserves so much credit for the Kevin Dotson trade. An underrated move like the Austin Corbett trade, but has been extremely impactful.Over the past three weeks, Dotson has been the 5th-highest graded OL in the NFL.
The Dotson trade has made the right side of the Rams offensive line one of the best in the NFL.
Over the past three weeks…
Dotson: 5th-highest graded OL via PFF
Havenstein: 7th-highest graded OL via PFFBrandon Thorn@BrandonThornNFL
