znModeratorIt was worth it, though, because the Rams got Isaiah Pead.
What did the Rams do when they realized they missed on Wagner? Pead.
znModeratorHacksaw
Highlights…
1. He’s from Los Angeles
2. Has the most tackles of any active player in the NFL.
3. He’s only missed 2 games since 2016.
4. Has 2nd-most All-Pro selections among active players.
5. He’s 25-12-1 against the 49ers and Cardinals in his career.
6. Career missed-tackle rate is only 5.9%.
7. Tied for 2nd-most pressures among LBs since 2016.
8. Rams traded away from him in 2012 draft.znModeratorBobby Wagner ➡️ LA Rams 🌴☀️

znModeratorJ𝒾𝓂 𝐸𝓋𝑒𝓇𝑒𝓉𝓉@Jim_EverettLBs Wagner & Jones in the middle? The @RamsNFL just significantly changed their defensive strategy. #MiddlePressures #RunStoppers #PowerAndSpeed….me: Both Miller and Wagner are great veteran leaders who won super bowls before the Rams, but beyond that they’re obviously very different animals. Miller has a great outside rush & BW has great instincts as an inside run defender & is good in coverage..IMO the defense is 2 different things w/ 1 or the other.znModeratorTyler Higbee continued to show he is one of the more underrated TEs in the league in 2021. Higs had his 2nd season with 60+ receptions & 3rd straight with 500+ yards. Underrated athleticism and a solid blocker. Even though he missed the SuperBowl, he earned his championship medal pic.twitter.com/rFIp71VnN8

znModeratorIn the last year, the Rams have either traded for or signed:
🔹 Matthew Stafford
🔹 Von Miller
🔹 Bobby Wagner
🔹 Odell Beckham Jr.
🔹 Allen Robinson pic.twitter.com/X5EMIinXNU— NFL on CBS 🏈 (@NFLonCBS) March 31, 2022
znModeratorThe Rams' biggest weakness on defense last year was the middle of the field. Teams exploited that area, but they just fixed it by signing Bobby Wagner https://t.co/oLVaKbYC9A

znModeratorField Yates@FieldYatesFollowing the early wave of free agency, a look at where all 32 NFL teams officially stand in terms of cap space, from the Panthers to the Giants.znModeratorcould he be the sleeper that emerges in 2022?
JUSTIN HOLLINS
OverviewThree-year starter with athletic ability and length teams look for from edge talent. Hollins has shown consistent growth as a prospect and flashes every-down potential at times, but his lack of consistent aggression and force could be a limiting factor. He should find special teams reps early on, but his future might very well be defined by his team’s ability to develop and unlock his capacity as a disruptive pass rusher.Strengths- Plays with plus athleticism and movement skills in both tight quarters and open field
- Possesses agility and looseness in both upper and lower body to be a slippery target
- Plays with eyes beyond initial block and into backfield
- Stick-and-move handwork allows him to punch and work around edge blockers
- Accelerates with adequate close-out range to challenge runners headed for the corner
- Can drop and and cover if asked to do so
- Hunts for football as pass rusher and has penchant for strip sacks
- Sudden inside move in pass rush could become dangerous weapon with more refinement
- Quality upfield get-off as pass rusher
- Unique “triple-jump” stride on third step upfield can propel him past kick-sliding tackles
Weaknesses- Needs more dog in his fight; doesn’t always play with aggressive demeanor teams look for
- Needs to confront and shed blockers at point of attack rather than riding on them
- Play strength is below average
- Has tendency to lose leverage when forced over top of blocker on backside squeeze versus run
- Will need to improve hand skill to more consistently grease the edge on edge rush
- Better upper-body turn at top of the rush arc could improve efficiency and tightness of path to quarterback
- Tends to disappear during stretches of the game
znModeratori like rochell. but i am a little worried about safety. fuller will be back, but rapp was inconsistent. and burgess was nowhere to be seen.
I think it will be Scott and Fuller. And that’s a promising combo.
znModeratorNo Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen@NoLieWithBTCIf you know someone who is diabetic, they should know that 92% of House Republicans just voted against a standalone bill that would simply cap the cost of insulin at $35/month.znModeratorThe Rams have had some weird endings. Kevin Carter, Kurt Warner, Todd Gurley, Eric Dickerson, Jerome Bettis… w v
McVay does that too. But it doesn’t seem like a boneheaded miscalculation with him, the way it was with Bettis and probably Warner too, and it’s never personal (I don’t think…well except for Goff, there seemed to be a personal element in that). With him, it’s starting to be a pattern, and it looks more ruthless than it does weird. Dumped all their corners in 2019, during the season, and added Ramsey. Dumped Wilson and added Staley. Dumped Woods and added Robinson. Goff for Stafford. It looks like an integral part of who he is. You can at least see the logic behind it, and when I say “ruthless” that’s a mixed thing–on the one hand it seems cold, and on the other hand it’s in the name of upgrading. Part of it is like he’s a dating partner who changes overnight after meeting someone richer. It looks like impulsive reaching for opportunities, and no one can say it is all choices.
znModeratorInspiration & motivation 🤟🏾
This defense will be elite at all 3 levels, I’m claiming it 🙏🏾 @AaronDonald97 @Bwagz @RamsNFL https://t.co/xlY7ZdHIzo— Jalen Ramsey (@jalenramsey) March 31, 2022
znModeratorznModeratorIan Rapoport@RapSheetThe #Rams give LB Bobby Wagner a 5-year, $50M contract that can be worth up to $65 million. After weeks of talking, Wagner lands back in the division as he wanted..Jourdan Rodrigue@JourdanRodrigueFor weeks, the Rams were quite public about their interest in Wagner, who they believe can align with rising star ILB Ernest Jones and help keep them multiple on the back end. Wagner can do everything and will be a day-1 leadership add as well..
Colin Cowherd@ColinCowherdBobby Wagner to the Rams. Lord. So now an Elite owner, GM, HC, QB, WR, DT, LB, CB. HOF level talent at each position. The Jets & Giants combined, are not sure if either of their QB’s can even play..RamseyThe4th@RamseyDa4thBobby Wagner gets me excited because of his knowledge and football smarts. He will be the captain and will call the plays on the field. This is a huge upgrade, even though another corner would have been nice..Sosa Kremenjas@QBsMVPBobby Wagner is the best off-ball linebacker the Rams have had since London FletcherznModerator— Jourdan Rodrigue (@JourdanRodrigue) March 31, 2022
znModeratorBobby Wagner has signed with the Rams and his arrival should only help improve the development of Ernest Jones. https://t.co/tSV2NWWnVK

znModeratorGet to know the newest Ram! 🤩
— Los Angeles Rams (@RamsNFL) March 31, 2022
znModeratorWell alright.
They don’t have a top edge rusher yet. Wagner is not that. But they can scheme some pass rush in. What Wagner does IMO is add leadership, instincts, and a knack for making plays to the LB corps. We’ll see how they use that.
Maybe they become a blitzing D. Wagner can contribute to that, you would think, though he has only averaged 2-3 sacks a year for 10 seasons.
Now’s a good time to remember all those frustrating stops BW made on Gurley, sometimes seemingly out of nowhere.
znModeratorSo I heard that Will Rock kissed Chris Smith at the Oscar Mayers party, or something. That was on the news I think.
Not sure if it means all that much to me.
znModeratorBobby Wagner would be great for the Rams, but they shouldn't lose too much sleep if he signs elsewhere.
They have bigger holes to fill imo, and his asking price is high https://t.co/7sjrZseL2T

znModeratorJD Mackenzie@MackenzieJDEnough Baker Mayfield talk. Mediocre quarterback, bad teammate. Case Keenum with Eddie Haskell personality.znModeratorThe only teams, as slotted now, I see legitimately entertaining taking a QB in round 1:

-SEA

znModeratorI just got taken to task by a man who is upset that I enjoyed "Turning Red"
He hates the movie b/c he watched it w/his daughter & was enraged that it would broach the topic of menstruation b4 he had "the talk" with her.

His daughter is 16.🤔

znModeratorI’d like to see Goff and the Lions make the playoffs this year. I’d also like to see Aaron Rogers and the Packers fall on their faces. w v
I have to say, that would be sweet.
znModeratorBrad Holmes offered Jared Goff a vote of confidence at the owners meetings. "Jared's our quarterback, and we're going to put him in the best positions to succeed."
Dodged questions about taking a QB at 2, but Holmes made it clear Detroit is optimistic about its future with Goff
