Either Eric Weddle (because he's a great safety), or Von Miller (though, Ogletree could be fine there).

Adrian Peterson - hands down.

Aaron Rodgers.

Because the Rams would probably go to the SB with this defense and him at QB with the newly acquired toys from the last two years.

I really can't argue with that.
I think a Larry Fitzgerald would more than solve any questions at WR though :cool:

I like the AD pick, but I'll go Megatron. All the double-teams he'd draw would create lots of space for those new toys. Perhaps it would be the dawn of the Grandest Spectacle on Artificial Grass (GSAG).

I think, looking at the Rams needs right now...its hard not to say Peterson...but I won't.

There is two players I wanted the Rams to pick last year. One was Jenkins (got him) and I really really wanted Doug Martin.

After 1400+ yards rushing and 400+ receiving with 12 total touchdowns as a rookie...it really bums me out we didn't trade back into the 1st for him.

The dude is an absolute stud and will only get better.

He does two things that All Day doesn't do as well. That is catch, and block.

Ehhhh...


He got a million yards last year but had the same amount of touchdowns as Gibson.

I think he runs lazy routes and just expects a jump ball every time.

IMO he's not a 110% effort guy 100% of the time. He is like Moss. Can be the greatest ever, but won't work his hardest to get to it. Imagine if he worked as hard as Jerry Rice?

You forgot the why lol
I thought the WHY was obvious, lol.

I think it would give us the best o-line in the NFC West, and maybe the league once the guys all worked together for a bit.

Megatron was my second pick. Again, because he would be such a good consistent target for our offense.

It's hard to argue against Peterson and Calvin Johnson.

I wanted to pick a safety, but just don't see that position as having the highest impact.

So I'll throw out a new name: Julio Jones

He's younger than CJ and I think he's just coming into his own. That, and I sense he's more the team player... and a HELL OF A LOT CHEAPER!

I'm gonna go against the grain here and go with Polamalu. Given the roster they have in place here, I think that they've got a lot of potential guys on offense, but having Troy at the SS spot makes this a potential top 5 defense.

That's the one! It would be Faulk Mach 2 and we would be guaranteed roughly 125 rushing yards per game. No way anyone beats us. I'm going all out crazy talk now, but, with what we have now, add Peterson to this team, our record could possibly be 16 and 0 to 19 and 0, Superbowl champs. The 72 Dolphins would be sticking those champagne bottles in their frowning pie holes instead of acting like they won the lottery. We would have a very high scoring O and we have an extremely strong D that will be better this year.
So, on a realistic note, if any of our RBs have a gaping hole due to this excellent O-line we have now, we may see one of our guys average 100 yards per game if they hit the hole and kill them with speed. We may see more breakaway runs this season than we've seen in the last 8 years. We may have a sleeper that needs a little wider gap that wasn't there last year to become the next big thing. Hey, anything is possible with the new and significantly improved Rams.
