Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
Keep Ferguson, Higby, and Davis Allen.
Even if it does not save cap space we have other needs and should keep 5 ILBs (or my preference only 4) and cut Reeder.

Re: Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
We need 4 with Higbee on the team. He is always good for missing 4-5 games due to injury.

Re: Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
Ferguson and Allen, at this point in their early careers, are receiving tight ends / hybrid big wrs.

Re: Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
Yeah, 4 TE's and 5 ILB's really leaves us thin at other positions in terms of talent. I don't hate Reeder like most but that could be one spot. Nobody would poach him before getting to our PS. If I had to choose 1 TE to cut it would be Allen because we need the experience of Higbee and Parkinson.EastBayRamsFan wrote: ↑August 23rd, 2025, 11:31 pm Keep Ferguson, Higby, and Davis Allen.

Tough calls coming up.

Re: Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
I like Allen because of how he has flashed in the past and because all reports are that he had a great camp. He’s also very tight with Kobie Turner and other young players. BUT If they can stash Redman on the PS for emergencies, they might be fine without him.
Also, if Higbee is 100%, maybe they’d trade Parkinson and keep Allen. Midseason Parkinson seemed like a dud, but early and late he flashed why they signed him.
Tough calls!

Re: Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
The issue I have us will Higbee last 4, 6, . games? Think about trading H and go with youth movement. The prob with H is contract and trade value

Re: Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
I think we keep 3 on 53, then one on practice squad… we’ll see I guess

Re: Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
Davis Allen can catch but he is slow as molasses. I think Parkinson's contract is trade prohibitive although I could be mistaken.

Re: Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
Rams don’t throw enough to the TE to warrant 4 TEs. Higs going nowhere, Ferguson drafted, Parkinson was their wasted FA just last year and Davis Allen. Is Allen necessary? Perhaps more than Parkinson.

Re: Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
If they want to play the long game and go with 4 TE's then keeping Allen would be the play. Higbee and Parkinson could be salary cap casualties next year leaving us with young TE's Ferguson, Allen, Redman, and a draft pick/cheap FA.bigklein wrote: ↑August 24th, 2025, 10:53 am I like Allen because of how he has flashed in the past and because all reports are that he had a great camp.

However, this season is about winning the Super Bowl so we need Higbee and Parkinson's experience and veteran leadership.

Re: Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
Parkinson can go , even if Higbee gets hurt you can find a Parkinson somewhere. Save the money and send him packing. He just isn't very good.

Re: Not convinced we need 4 Tight Ends
Ummmm, so if Colby Parkinson is 'an absolute beast' at TE, why did the Rams expend a second-round draft pick to select Terrance Ferguson a few months ago...?? :?
RAM SEASON!!
