Matt Davis - QB - SMU

[PARAM]

His arm looks strong. His legs look even better. Do we have the luxury of keeping a third QB-Swiss army knife-Wildcat option on the roster? Probably not. But as DB said, practice squad? Sure.

I agree PS and keep in mind that in High School FB Sam Rogers played Quarterback and I'm sure McVay factored that in when drafting the Virginia Tech alum.

Apparently only eight months out from having ACL surgery.
So my guess is he'll be doing the camp arm thing before they try him out as a wide receiver or running back.

But heck with Sam Rogers block for him you never know

He has good vision and is shifty, but he does not look fast in that video. He looks slow. At first I thought maybe backup change of pace/third down back, but I will be surprised if he sticks on the PS.

Rubley could move, but not like this kid and Rubley only played like 8 games and lost most of them. The T.J. Rubley era began a great demise of Ram football, they lost every year until 1999-2004 and truly have not recovered since, so blame it on Rubley!

CURSE YOU RUBLEY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe just a total pocket passer?

I expect that he won't play QB for us.

Agreed teams usually carry 4 QB's during training camp, so one would surmise the Rams might very well sign him, but I don't think Davis will even get a shot in preseason unless it's for a few plays when the game is over.

I mean that I expect he will change positions.

What position? Not WR the Rams already have 65 of them on the roster.

Chill on that idea! I Like Spruce and want to see what he can do in a full, Healthy Season!

 

[KOWALSKI]

pretty sure he got invited because the rams need an arm.
i don't believe mannion or murray will be at the rookie camp.
i doubt the rams look at him as a rb or wr. his 3 cone time was horrible.
and after looking into it, the 3 cone seems to be "the thing" for our coaches.
just an arm, maybe even only in the rookie camp.

I don't see blue font. You would have drafted Webb in the 3rd?
