znModeratorThe best coaches are teachers. The grass is their classroom and they can make the lessons come to life with demos and instruction. DQ’s expertise lies with the D-Line so it is sensible for him to work closely with the guys in the trenches. Never stop teaching. #DallasCowboys https://t.co/A8QQFL4bn6

Dating back to college, Darious Williams really doesn’t have any bad tape to his name over any extended period. He assumed the No. 2 corner job in Los Angeles last season and proceeded to earn a top-10 PFF grade, allowing just 48.7% of passes thrown into his coverage to be caught for a passer rating of only 55.4.

Crazy stat from @PSchrags this morning… Tom Brady has never played a game in Los Angeles. He’s played in 299 games.The Rams will host his Bucs on Sept. 26th, 2021 (Week 3). A new opportunity to end Brady’s run. Shut him down (again) in Week 3, and don’t let him back in Feb.

Sean McVay has an abundance of talent to work with and a new quarterback under center, so he’s in a good position to lead the Rams deep into the playoffs.
According to BetMGM, he has a great chance to win his second NFL Coach of the Year award, too. At +1600, McVay is tied with Kyle Shanahan, Andy Reid, Brandon Staley and Brian Flores for the second-best odds to win the a

No opponent catches a BYE before facing the Rams.
10 out of 17 opponents will be on the road the week before taking on LA.Perfect bye (Week 11)
Early TNF (Week 5)
Only one true road back-to-back (kind, considering 9 away games this year)
All home games on Sundays at SoFi

Alright, so the Rams waived LS Colin Holba, per NFL transaction wire. Now they’re down to two long snappers, two kickers and three punters. Perhaps notable that LS Matt Orzech, claimed yesterday off waivers, played for new ST coordinator Joe DeCamillis in Jacksonville.

Jacob Harris – outside Simi Fehoko, there was no one in the draft like him. Size, speed athletic ability. They targeted him to improve STs immediately, with the thought that he is WR 6 or TE 4 and maybe develop him into a Galladay or Megatron lite or even Waller lite. If he never develops into that, he at the worst is a ST demon with some redzone upside. At best, he is a massive mismatch in the red zone and 50 50 balls down the field. Raw, but so much athletic ability he is worth the pick.
He is also a change if wr drafting philosophy of valuing route running, excellent hands and being a polished wr like Kupp and Jefferson. He’s more along the lines of Reynolds with so much more upside.
znModeratorDeadpool
Robert Rochell – a Senior Bowl kid that struggled in the jump in competition. But his ball skills, fluidity and length make him a highly coachable prospect. The NFL is really starting to value length in their corners. And it makes sense. Give me a 6′ to 6′ 1″ corner with long arms that is athletic and fluid over a stiffer 6 2 or 6 3 kid that is a tad stiffer and not as quick. Rochell can probably contribute right away on STs which is obviously important. Morris is the DB whisperer so he is the perfect match for Rochell. I’m fairly excited about his potential. Or he flames out fantastically.

Bobby Brown – if the Rams wanted to get stouter against the run, then they filled a hole. He has a grown man’s body that can get into the rotation quickly. I worried about his motor, but if they can get him revved up he has huge upside as a 3 down defender. And if he gets soloed up due to AD, he will eat. Looking at the IDL that was left, other than Shelvin, Brown was the strongest, best run stuffer left and it wasn’t close. And Shelvin doesn’t have his pass rush upside. This pick also signifies the Rams are fully gone from Phillips stop the run on the way to the QB system to a multiple fronts, control the LoS system. 34, 43, 425. They now have personnel that can make that happen. If the safeties can hold up, this defense might be insane.
znModeratorDeadpool
Ernest Jones – the Rams value run stopping and leadership along with instincts as their top 3 traits for ILBers, Reeder, Kiser and now Jones all share that. So looking at what was available in the draft that had those 3 traits at ILB, Jones was high on the list. And looking at what was left, by far the best available. McGrone, Cox, Wallow, Browning, Barnes, Johnson are all more run and chase types. Jones was an obvious choice looking back, knowing what I know now.
As far as Jones himself. I went back and watched 2 full games. I saw him hesitate at times, I thought it was from lack of instincts. It wasn’t, he was actually letting the back commit to a lane then filling it. It was also hard to find a play where he wasn’t in the frame when you paused the game at the point of the tackle. He is all over. He isn’t the most explosive tackler, but when he wraps you up, you don’t go forward, and you aren’t escaping. You are done. I think he avoids going for knockout shots to make sure you are tackled. Lastly, his instincts get him to the ball carrier as quickly as a 4.5 40 lber because he takes great angles and does well to anticipate. This also helps in dropping into zone coverage. He’s also a lights out, all day lunchpail leader. I think he starts sooner than people think.
