IDK man. This dude can play multiple roles and that is what Shula loves. He can convert to rush end in the cheetah package. He can cover, blitz, fill inside I. The run game and track down anyone sideline to sideline. I doubt it happens but this dude looks beyond legit.

Understood, but I just dont think they value it that way. I still think the Rams could go WR ala Golden. Adams is a 1-2 year fix most likely.

I still think TE or trade back and get a TE, CB and RT.

Well Lance Zurlien agrees with me. Or I him. lol. This dude looks special. And more than an off ball, interior LB. But, not as valuable to the Rams as a top WR or TE. Someone is taking this kid in the 1st rd.

We “need” Corner (should re sign Spoon)TE, WR, RT, DT (re sign Gallimore), ILB (unless they really like the 2 PS guys and that is risky), and rotational edge depth.

They are likely looking at the cuts happening over the next week to see if there is anyone. I doubt they make a trade. So it’s lookin like draft with 7 picks and UDFAs.

Here is my two cents,

I see the RAMs going all in for this year SB run.

In what the roster looks like at this point,

Our most likely needs for the draft, unless we sign some more FA,

Is the best available player between these three,

that I would shoot for in the first round.


LT/RT/Swing (A future to replacement RHav and backup swing)

ILB, If there is a Warner from SF type LB, I would get him.

CB/ A shutdown CB

Players we don't need for our first pick.

TE, is a luxury pick, that wouldn't be starting in front of our three we have now.

WR, is a luxury pick, that wouldn't be starting in front of our four we have now

QB, is a luxury pick, that wouldn't be starting in front of our QB1 or QB2

This is all based on the next two years for a SB run!!! IMO

This is a great take. I see Snead trading down to get the most picks to gain depth rather than luxury picks. But, as always, best athleticism/fit will get selected. I see maybe a need at RB but nobody is going to get picked and start this year…

I am with you on this unless the skill position player can contribute right away. That is hard historically with MCV. Although Kupp did it. It’s safer/easier to project instant contribution on the D side. But, Snead won’t pass on a player with predicted generational/all pro talent - regardless of position.

I think he wants more picks. #26 is a bit of no man’s land unless someone THEY really covet, drops. Can see a trade back there.
