I dunno Merlin. I have it pretty close to that except Robinson beating out Wichmann at RG. He pulls better AND he can maul just about anyone in the run game. NO one questions GRob's strength.

LT - Whitworth / Murphy / Williams
LG - Saffold / Brown
C - Barnes / Rhaney
RG - Robinson / Wichmann
RT - Havenstein / Donnal

Also, I don't think we carry 11 OL. I think we probably carry 9. Which means that I don't think both LT backups stick.

Welp, I'm wrong already. Adios, Barnes.

I'm really hoping they have another option beyond Rhaney/Wichmann.

Snead says they're considering every position (except center) for Robinson on the line.

I'm pretty damn happy about this move. I wish the guy was a couple years younger but of course this move probably doesn't happen if he was. We got a shot now boys!!!!

Been reading some articles, watching interviews on Whitworth....love everything I've seen, this guy is going to be a much needed leader in the locker room.

Center Ryan Groy has been thrown around but he just signed with the Bills as a RFA.

Original pick tender, so the rams can still sign him and give up no compensation because he was an UDFA. Bills probably wont match because they are too busy spending the limited cap space they have on full backs.

This is the best FA signing the Rams have made in years bar none.
McVay's system must have better than average LT play and he doesn't get that level he has to start pulling plays out of the playbook to keep from having a Goff memorial service at midfield.
Sure Boras was bad, but with the level of play the rams have gotten the last 3 years at LT there's plays that can't be run.
This alone is 10 points a game signing.

Watching his press conference, both he and Woods are very well spoken individuals. Said the right things and said them with genuine interest in overall team building and winning.
