21 Nolan Cromwell Days to the Draft

That's the first Rams to pop to my mind but John Hadl was a close second. Not sure why, but I like 21 and 22 as QB numbers. I don't like any of the other 20's but for some reason, those two numbers work for Qb's in my mind.

Cromwell was a QB for Kansas before he came to the NFL and played safety for the Rams.

First Ram to pop into my mind was Janoris Jenkins, because new is alway better.

So when the Rams to Eric Crouch they thought they could get lucky with he same experiment twice?

Hadl was a pretty good QB back in the day. I think his game would've transferred well to today's game.

Crouch was a little too much like the nickname for a cat. Plus, the Rams(Martz) didn't even want him to switch sides of the ball they just wanted to exploit his athleticism. But he wanted to be a QB and QB only. Which, I can actually understand. But if your only shot at the NFL is to play WR/baby Slash, then you take your shot. Crouch wasn't even good enough to cut in Canada.

Yeah, Hadl's salad days were with the Chargers but he had a really good year for the Rams back in '72. Not only that, the Rams traded him to Green Bay for a real good return and just kept on winning the division. 7 different starting QB's that decade if I remember correctly. Hadl was used up by the time the Packers got him but he did return to the Rams as their OC in '81. Didn't work out too well but he did have a couple of cups of coffee with the Rams.
