Ask Philly if upgrading those positions were helpful. Brought back Reeder and signed another Reeder clone this offseason.

Maybe they see something with Forbes or bring back Ramsey.

Wait we still have 4 picks in the 6th round and I believe close to the last pick in the 7th. That's where you will get your value or something.

Yes. My thoughts too. Really hope Forbes can and is working hard in off season to be the guy. And something is cooking with JR coming back. Why else ignore 3-4 Really solid drafts at that position.

Well they did pretty well with Jags last year and they have one more year of experience..

Please remember that every team has gaps not just us!!

Once they traded put of the 1st, and gave up a 3rd they were very limited. The OP was made after they selected the TE. Couldn't address too many positions with one pick.

The 6th round will be fun. Lot of picks bunched together. Let's hold judgement until we see what they do.

Yeah, I think a lot of people are forgetting about Forbes but the Rams had 6 weeks to get a good look at him. You could do a lot worse than:

DWill
Witherspoon
Durant
Forbes
Kendricks (cut candidate or will rebound from injury)

Also, these are young guys that could either get cut or take a big step up.
Wallace
Woods
Lampkin
Jolly
AJ Green (3 years in Cleveland, signed to PS November last year)

they're coming for you, you made an observation, you can't do that. now if you said, wow, these guys are great picks!! well then and only then are you allowed observations and to predict the future of draft picks

I said it last year I'm saying again this year not addressing the linebacker position is negligent

If we had two strong linebackers instead of one really bad one and one mediocre one, we may have done a better job against Saquon Barkley in the playoffs, if we did, we probably would've won that game, if we would've won that game, we would've likely beat Washington and been in the Super Bowl against the banged up chiefs team

Why would we make the same mistake again this year? idk

Our linebackers and cornerbacks are undersized, slow, unwilling to tackle, and absolutely suck! We’ve all seen this for years and McSnead is unwilling to do anything about it! When we start addressing these positions in the later rounds, we will end up with 5’9” corners and special teams caliber linebackers with deficiencies. But we definitely needed a tight end who needs work and another edge rusher!

Well, 'intent' is both subjective and speculative, I'm only willing to go by semantics, i.e. the actual meaning of words, in objectively determining what a post is stating... :o ;) :)

As a fan I totally see why you say this but the truth is that most teams would say the same !!

No one is perfect and even with the group we were still able to get within a play of beating the SB champions.

I personally think they are good enough (barring injury) to get us back to the playoffs and then we will see what happens.

Agreed! Jettisoning Ernest Jones IV strikes me as having been a major mistake last year, one which was compounded by our team's failure to demand fair value (a third-round draft pick) for him in that trade.

ILB Chris Paul, Jr. (Ole Miss) is still available going into the NFL draft's fourth round today, will the Rams select him...?? :? :roll: :?:

Disagree. Philly has very good players at every level. We need to match them to beat them.

This a complete head scratcher….we got no better at our positions of need and Philly got a lot better. This is negligence.

Cherry on top-a 5’9 RB in are already stacked backfield?

Why a clone? Why not a huge bruiser to move the pile? This draft fucking sucks so far 😞

I keep saying exactly this. It's becoming clear that the rams, like DW and their young corners. Maybe they get a vet like Ramsey, but other then that. Rams are going with their guys.
