2014 draft prospect watch

[FRO]

Who are some of the guys you are keeping an eye on? With it being the boring time of year in the football season I figure I can start looking at 2014 draft prospects.

Here are some potential positions:
Safety
RT
OG
DT
RB

 

[Tron]

DT
FS
OG
RT
RB

Clowney and McCullers for me. I have a feeling we'll be going defense early and often in the next draft if the offense takes off this year.

 

[albefree69]

OT Depending but at least developmental
OG Kick ass starter
FS Kick ass starter
CB Depth and developmental
LB Depth and developmental

Much too soon for me to be looking at individual players.

If Bradford has a 2011 esq year then I agree. I think with what he accomplished last year behind a bad banged up offensive line and with a below average receiving corps being in the 1st year of a new system, I'm very optimistic he will take the next step.

Of Quick doesn't show progress I am fully on the Sammy Watkins train. To me he is on the AJ Green level of WRs.

Another guy I would love if Saffold doesn't resign is Jake Matthews.

Who's that big ole bastard?

I strongly disagree with this. He had some serious hype heading into last year but ended up playing second fiddle to DeAndre Hopkins and completely failed expectations. Not to mention he doesn't really have any outstanding physical traits like you would expect out of a top prospect. A.J. Green he is not.

I disagree.
I'm not saying Sam can just flop, however.....
BTW there was some sarcasm in that first post..... :ww:

if the League catches up to the injured RGII? a lot depends on this and if the Skins fall. the worse they do, the better off we are..

Next year will be the first year in a while, that the Rams can draft for depth. With the possible exceptions of LG, RT, FS, and RB, just about all of the positions will be filled. I'm guessing maybe one or two of those positions we'll need to draft for, but the rest of the picks can be guys who we can develop and use for depth. I think next year the Rams will be able to draft a rotational DT, or a specialist player (like a blocking TE or pass rushing specialist). We probably won't really "need" a WR, but if a good one drops in our laps we can take one. We can also draft a back-up QB who can take over if Sam isn't able to play. We can get a back-up CB who we might be able to develop when Finn is set to retire.

Its going to be fun going into a draft not feeling like you have to come out with certain positions.
