What is out top need for the draft?

"Explosive Playmaker": I want a home run hitter at WR or RB to add to the arsenal.
2
10%
Offensive Line (Interior): Find someone to compete with Noteboom/Allen/Blythe.
6
29%
Offensive Tackle: Find potential heir apparent to Andrew Whitworth (or someone who can compete with Noteboom for role).
3
14%
Defensive Line: With Suh not returning, we need to add another big body to the rotation.
3
14%
EDGE Rusher: Never can have too many.
4
19%
Interior LB: Need a thumper to stuff the run.
3
14%
Cornerback: Talib is getting old and Peters needs to be resigned. Need more depth.

Safety: Weddle is a stopgap. Need to plan for 2020.

When Jared SolidWhenProtected Goff gets hurried due to inadequate protection, he is capable of pooping the bed....a la Chicago and the Patriots. :idea2:

Beef up the OLine, we are thin there.

ER is manned by
Dante Fowler
Samson Ebukam
Obo
Clay Mathews
Justin Lawler
Trevon Young....IE. a veritable plethora of ERs at our disposal.

Meanwhile on the OLine we have two untested rooks named Noteboom and Allen....AND TWO HOLES CREATED WHEN SAFFOLD AND SULLIVAN DEPARTED!! :shock2: Can you say "thin"?????? :o

Get a coupla bona fide road graders early in the Draft, and I will be a happy camper!! 8-) JMO.


As opposed to (insert name here) solid when not-protected (insert name here), and I'm not laying Chicago and SB on Goff.

Also don't consider Noteboom and Allen untested. And while I loved Saffold, I think having Whit and Sully (that's right, we're on a nickname basis) 8-) bookending him didn't hurt.

Which is to say
1. Hi Coleman, guess you're not making it out in March this year :( , and
2. I agree, Oline is #2, but not THIS year, and
3. Not real sure Whitworth is done after this year. ;)

DL got my vote. Regarding the OL, I completely agree that we can acquire some good depth and potential starter(s) with our later picks. Personally, I put shoring up the run defense as our greatest priority and think that starts with addressing DL @ 31.


Welcome aboard Toronto!

Rams Q&A: Vinny Bonsignore

I see them going DL/LB/CB with their earliest pick/picks

[Brockers?] It really depends on what happens in the draft. If a better 5-technique is there at 31, Michael could move inside. If it’s more of a NT, then he can stay outside.

Going beyond the 1st round, I feel like the Rams, if they draft well, should be able to fill 3-4 need/depth areas in the draft. Then, with a couple of veteran 1-year deals, we should be able to round out the roster for 2019.

Cool buddy. Yes, it's on Pebble, and still there. Good memory.
Last time we got together, we had just traded for Foles - I was optimistic, you weren't. You were right. 8-)
If you're only a week out, I gotta start checking out draft prospects. ;)
