Regardless of who the Rams take -- my immediate knee-jerk reaction will be "they should've taken the other guy"

I concur since then, they have focused on guys that have actually produced and the picks of Havenstein, Brown & Cody Wichmann showcase that philosophy. The pick will be Jared Thomas Goff...You know it, I know it and the American people know it.

Goff looked relaxed eating his It's It at Rams park.
-- The thing I see in Goff is his pocket presence. He will extend a play & move the chains(not say Wentz doesn't). I was watching Case play & he does not move up & out of the pocket to get an angle during his read.
Then again Case does not have a great touch either. I like Case & the way he plays & runs the offense.he has a great cadence & feel for the offense.He is a winner , but doesn't have that It's it factor of coolness .
I think The Rams were put in a tough spot, not having a QB of the future.Case from day 1 will be starter. He is only signed though for 1 more year.
--- The Rams are doing the right thing in stock piling QB's because there is always a value there.

-Fisher loves a big arm
-Fisher hates taking chances
-Fisher values athleticism over football IQ
-Fisher values smart QB play over forcing plays with risk
These things all contradict one another and have been used to point to who the Rams will pick. I don't understand how anyone can be certain at this point.

I am happy for you Merlin....sure wish I was there with you this time. I find myself Bored Out Of my One Working Brain Cell with this upcoming draft:sleepz:. I have very little interest thanks to this Trade Up. My only slight interest will be on Saturday.:sadwalk:
I would think things will warm back up for me in 2018 Ram Draft. I hope the Rams can maintain some of the talent they have now to keep this Ram team from trending downward again.

Goff=safe/Wentz=risky
Fisher/Snead are risk takers when it comes to the draft, so I believe they will pick Wentz but I would prefer Goff.

Cheer up brother. By the end of this week we are finally going to have a high talent QB of the future in horns. They'll have a chance to add a good receiving option, either TE or WR, in round 4. Maybe a C too. Great things ahead my friend hang in there!

I'm not sure that at the QB position and in this particular place and time they want to take "upside" #1 overall.

That, plus he looks off defenders. And he's a natural at it. Wentz stares down receivers too much for my liking.. reminds me of Bradford in that regard.

Just because they've shown their willing to take a risk doesn't mean they will seek one out for the sake of taking a risk. Goff has every bit of upside wentz has

I agree with your take on Goff and want him picked but there is a pattern of risk taking by Fisher/Snead in drafts. Maybe trading up is the only risk they'll take this time.
