No kidding.

Super Bowl starting center Brian Allen who was also a pro bowl alternate.

SJD starter till he got hurt. Travin Howard a starter when healthy and key contributor down the stretch and in the playoffs. Noteboom another key contributor. And Obo too. That's 5 players with important roles.

Rams roster acquisition and building is obviously top notch, they just won the SB. Trades, draft, FA, they built this team using multiple avenues including many important components from the 2018 draft...

Well muddying the waters with platitudes about stellar Ram roster building is one way to go I guess....
although most posters here know that I often commend McSnead on their "trades, drafts, FA....multiple avenues."
IE. My support for McSnead is old news and common knowledge.

This old thread was bumped (not by me) and is from October 20, 2020 and dealt with one specific idea of mine....IE. the paltry return, TO THAT POINT IN TIME, in Ram Games Played by the 11 Ram 2018 Draftees, ALL of whom were IR'd or ineffective (Demby) for big swaths of their time with Los Ramos TO THAT POINT IN TIME.....or were eventually outright cut/released/unprotected like Kelly, Young, Franklin-Myers, & Kiser.

Question: Since October 20, 2020, did Noteboom, Allen, Obo, and Howard make some contributions to Ram fortunes that were absent prior?
ME: Yes! All good and welcomed stuff....finally! :idea2:

Two Mysteries:
1. How many of Free Agents out of SJD (whom I lauded even back in Oct.'20),and the new "key contributors" Noteboom, Allen, Obo, and Howard will McSnead re-sign for the 2022 season & beyond ?

2. What exactly was the purpose of bumping this Oct.'20 old thread, plus R4L's THIS TEAM SUCKS thread from November 2021.....during what should be a Ram Love-In//SBLVI celebratory time? :?

Some weird stuff here IMO.

Hey....how's the Henderson architect doin' eh?
Hope all is well with you and yours.

Hoping the maddening Covid border restrictions get loosened to where Swiss Family Canuck can visit Sin City again without the required molecular test check-ups to return to Canada.

Miss the outdoor PT Pub experience and our past Rams Draft Summits. :(

I will let you know whenever things loosen up enough for us Northerners to make the Vegas pilgrimage again!

Stay safe and healthy my friend!! ;) :arrow2: 8-)

Hope so as well. Really missed that these last (totally unnecessarily fucked up) few years.
(Had to stir up SOME shit) :D 8-)

Hope to see you soon.
Cheers.

Not always! Some of us recognize 2018 was a good draft when it comes to getting value with lower round picks. Some don't.
