Just want to warn my Rams brethren, patience is key. Higbee, Thomas, and Cooper are all talented. But all three still have a ways to go in terms of development. Don't get your expectations too high for them as rookies. I think they'll be productive players down the line but they may not be ready to contribute that much in 2016.
Middle to late round draftees tend to be more of the development project types, much more so than the blue chippers like Sir Goff. We can wait on them. I would be more concerned with getting Jerad up to speed as quickly & smoothly as humanly possible. He has a young, aggressive OL of maulers in front of him and a future Hall of Fame RB and Tavon Awesome behind and to the side of him . . . so he will have plenty of help. Greg Williams gotta get our new defensive QB primed and fully focused and get his new starters comfortable with their positions. Greg the Turbo Leg better get his act together real quick. That type of leg power combined with real accuracy can be a formidable talent.
They can lean on the
fully healthy Gurley Express! (with all the extra speed, quickness, & brute power implied) and Tavon, but Jerad will have to get quickly proficient with recognizing defensive schemes and throwing into the faster closing windows at the NFL level.
I want us to not just get into the playoffs---that should be almost a given---I want us to knock teams on their collective asses along the way. I want this Horns rejuvenation to be so dominating that FA's would want to flock to the
Showtime! city.
