We are done ... Ladies and Gents. Can't say I am dissappointed. Our BIGGEST NEED was definitely addressed. We got a possible "all timer" in Gurley .... what could be at least a viable #2 QB ... another physical WR and a couple guys to fill out defensive depth ..... I applaud the FO.

Lol at the guys that wanted to draft hundley at 10! The guy just isnt very good. He is in the best situation for him though because he will never play.
Not that I need to defend Hundley, but I don't know who'd want to draft him at 10....2nd round maybe...
And, I believe, he's still better than Mannion....Probably better than Foles too.....

I didn't scout this player. From NFL.COM
Strengths
Thick and strong with a frame to hold up against power players. Duck-footed drive blocker after impact. Has enough power to generate push as base blocker and can jolt edge when pulling in short areas. Plus anchor. Held up against Leonard Williams early in 2014. Sees twists coming and can catch twister. Has radar to land his down block in sweet spot and seal off defender.
Weaknesses
Average initial quickness and below-average athlete. Can handle himself in small spaces, but struggles when asked to leave his property and block in space. Will likely miss his mark if block isn't on schedule and he's asked to adjust to a sudden change of direction.
Draft Projection
Round 6 or 7
Bottom Line
Durable, NFL-caliber build with average to below-average feet, but above-average strength and anchor. Wichmann will be limited by his lack of athleticism and will need to find a home in a power-blocking scheme that allows him to live in a phone booth and maul his opposition.

Another road grater.

Sounds like just the kind of guy to stick at left guard! Let Saffold pull block as he's good at it!

Other than the iffy-ness factor of the #10 RB with the bad knee, I really like the draft.

IF the RB's knee holds, then I will really LOVE the Rams' draft.

I'm beginning to absolutely, positively HATE the smirking "I'm better than you" a$$ known as Roger GoodHell. Jerk.
