So much is still up in the air on this loaded roster, but here are a few of my impressions as to players that have made the 53...
In no particular order, btw.
Both Allen and Wolford have flashed. Each might be nice to have for backup next year after Bortles’ departure. Neither will make the 53, but practice squad? Hopefully one could stick there.
Kelly has locked up that 4th RB position.
Mundt will be our 3rd TE again this year. The rookies have been disappointments.
Thomas and Hodge have both impressed and I can’t see the Rams letting either get away. The WR depth on this team is just sick and there will be heartbreaking cuts in 7 days. Several Ram cuts will be on other NFL rosters. Kudos to the Ram WR coaches. Smh.
Obo and Patrick will not only make the 53, but will see significant snaps this season. Ebu better play very effectively when he sees the field early this year or he could be soon riding the pine. Both Obo and Patrick can PLAY at this level. Very, very nice “problem” to have.
It looks like Hager has been handed the starting job, but his hold on it might not be all that secure. Allen looks like an instinctive player that just keeps making play after play. I could actually see Allen maybe be starting by game 6 or so. I’m serious.
Peterson is a better CB than Troy Hill. And how can the Rams keep Hill and cut a Darious Williams, contract or no contract? Especially with both Talib and Peters in their final contract year? Gotta look at the long range Big Picture here, y’all. Sigh...
Nick Scott has made the 53. Heck, he made it on draft day, lol. Also, I think Steven Parker is now 50-50 to make the 53. Sorry, Christian.
Still one week to go in the preseason, so stay tuned. That DL bottom depth is still kinda murky to me, for example. But the above seem quite likely to me at this point, anyway.
