After the dust has settled on an unbelievably depressing night, after an unbelievably depressing finish to a game, I have two clear thoughts:

1) It is AWESOME that with 3 games left in the season, we have a chance to win the division and/or make the playoffs after so many years of crap football, and

2) Next year's draft should be ALL defense. Give Wade the tools to succeed. Our offense is tweakworthy with FA's and undrafted's, but every pick from this draft should be on the OTHER side of the ball this offseason.

Big game this week.

Understatement of year!

they need depth on the o-line as evidenced by turnstile darrell williams yesterday. they can let sammy walk, love woods and cupp. need a backup RB and need to develop their TE (everett). All this can be done with low budget, I agree that the major resources need to go to defense.

We need some CB’s and let Tru’s ass walk. He’s not worth too CB money for half ass play. Need to draft 2 good cb’s next draft.

I’ve been reluctant to bash Quinn but I don’t know if he has it anymore, the old Quinn would’ve dominated this game but I don’t know how many times I saw him go flying by trying to swipe at the ball as he goes. They were doubling AD and Quinn should’ve been in wentz’s back pocket all day. That was the difference, the Eagles got to Goff and the rams couldn’t get to Wentz.

Yes and no.
Williams can be solid at LT. A 16 game starter, probably not. Clearly better and more comfortable at LT than RT.
Rams have Williams and Lucas at LT. Will be interesting to see if the Rams feel they have or can develop either as both are young players.
Using a third round pick on a LT would be wise if the team doesn't think neither Williams or Lucas can develop.
Inside Blythe has been good when he has played.
I would invest two picks in OL this draft but not the first round pick with rest of the draft going to the D.
Trying to find cheap OL FA to add depth or develop is tough shopping.....this is what the Rams did with Lucas. If there were to be major investing in the OL via FA it would be to upgrade RG as Brown is the weakest of the starters. But, I seriously doubt that would happen.
