POST #1 TOPIC AUTHOR OH YEAH!I got out of the habit of watching the first day of the draft. Not this year! I'm watching it until the Rams do whatever they are going to do. I simply don't expect them to stand pat at 19. With their roster the way it is, I don't think they will trade back. Their needs are targeted with a few that can really benefit from a day one player. This day has been planned for years. I don't think it's by coincidence that they have structured key contracts the way they have. I honestly don't think they will target a first round edge. They might but Young and Turner have proved they can get that kind of talent in the second and third rounds. The same goes for LT. I think they move up if they can find a trade partner. IMO the only position worthy of moving up is QB. I honestly think they are targeting Penix and Nix. If they go earlier than some think I expect the Rams to trade back and take a QB in the second round. JJ McCarthy is a wildcard. He's got talent but he can be inconsistent in aspects of his game. He definitely would benefit from a redshirt year. Because of the offense he played in at Michigan it's hard to say how he will translate to the NFL's complex defenses. That IMO is the biggest question mark surrounding McCarthy. If the Chargers don't take him at #5 I think he drops somewhat, i.e. lower in the top 10. I doubt he drops to 19. If the Chargers take a QB at 5, it will mean Herbert will be traded. If that happens I see the Rams making a huge effort to make a splash and insure their QB1 position with another gunslinger QB for years to come. Regardless I simply don't see the Rams standing pat at 19. I see them trading up or down depending upon how the draft unfolds. by snackdaddy 2 weeks 3 days ago Total posts: 9688 Joined: May 30 2015 Merced California Hall of Fame Re: AND SO A NEW JOURNEY BEGINS!! POST #2 I have no idea what they will do. Knowing their history a trade down would not be surprising. Or a trade up. Or trade for a proven player. Or stand pat. Pick an edge. Or a DT. Or an OT. Or WR. One thing I'm pretty sure of they won't pick a kicker. Everything else is on the table. by Youngblood22 2 weeks 3 days ago Total posts: 27 Joined: Aug 31 2023 LA Coliseum Undrafted Free Agent AND SO A NEW JOURNEY BEGINS!!

Maybe pick up a QB like Pratt with a move up with their 3rd round picks. by ramsman34 2 weeks 3 days ago Total posts: 8625 Joined: Apr 16 2015 Back in LA baby!

I simply don't expect them to stand pat at 19. With their roster the way it is, I don't think they will trade back. Their needs are targeted with a few that can really benefit from a day one player. This day has been planned for years. I don't think it's by coincidence that they have structured key contracts the way they have. I honestly don't think they will target a first round edge. They might but Young and Turner have proved they can get that kind of talent in the second and third rounds. The same goes for LT. I think they move up if they can find a trade partner. IMO the only position worthy of moving up is QB. I honestly think they are targeting Penix and Nix. If they go earlier than some think I expect the Rams to trade back and take a QB in the second round. JJ McCarthy is a wildcard. He's got talent but he can be inconsistent in aspects of his game. He definitely would benefit from a redshirt year. Because of the offense he played in at Michigan it's hard to say how he will translate to the NFL's complex defenses. That IMO is the biggest question mark surrounding McCarthy. If the Chargers don't take him at #5 I think he drops somewhat, i.e. lower in the top 10. I doubt he drops to 19. If the Chargers take a QB at 5, it will mean Herbert will be traded. If that happens I see the Rams making a huge effort to make a splash and insure their QB1 position with another gunslinger QB for years to come. Regardless I simply don't see the Rams standing pat at 19. I see them trading up or down depending upon how the draft unfolds.Kicker!!!!! JUST RAM IT DAM IT!
