Should be announced by noontime.

What's that do to the Lions? Campnell hires Jason Garrett and they NEVER pass on a FG again? :lol2:

Obvisously i trust McVay and the Rams whoever they pick. But from the outside, i want someone young, smart, cutting edge so i'm not excited about Rivera who i'm sure has a lot of great qualities. But is he at the forefront of new ways for defenses to attack offenses? I doubt it.

I also hate to be the one to say this but i'm not excited about Aubrey Pleasant anymore. He got fired from Detroit. Our secondary and pass defense were bad this year. We had 2 guys we thought might be rising stars in Cobie and Kendricks. Neither of them took the next step this year.

Are these things Pleasant's fault? Does this mean he wouldn't be a great DC? Hell if i know but these are my thoughts...

I agree with those sentiments.

I cant disagree with this either, though I think Aubrey was a scapegoat for the Lions defense, just like LaFleur was for the Jets offense. I just think late round CB's arent always that good and still need development.

I have made no disguise of who I want, Evero is by far the best candidate, I hope Carolina does the right thing. Not particularly excited about Staley as a option, he bombed so badly with the Chargers, that I rather him rebuild his rep somewhere else. The dude from the Ravens is intriguing...

Also I think it is really important the Rams can hold onto Jake Peetz, he is an up and comer.
Already a sizeable loss losing Zac.
