I like it. He was an all pro just two years ago and was stuck on a bad Cleveland team this year. We're gunna have a terrifying defensive backfield.

I'm ok with it, though we'll be shy a true centerfielder. Damn receivers will have to keep their heads up though. Checks one more box off before the draft at least. QB at one, and then find a way to get a WR, TE, C and LB with the next four picks. Grab a couple of DBs as UDFAs (a strength of Snead and his staff) and go to war.

Since the Rams traded away so many picks, they need to start filling in some needs with short term contracts at reasonably low money. They seriously need to scout the lower tier guys and score a good UDFA or two.

Does that mean no Jalen Ramsey at #1 now?

Since people keep posting that the Rams would have made the playoffs with a different kicker - obviously that's what they are going for.

Good depth but not sure how it helps replace McCleod. So far I haven't heard a good alternative to him leaving.

I'm confused. Does this mean that T.J. is moving to FS? Or are they signing Whitner and using him as a depth/sub-package player in case Barron gets hurt?

I think they're gonna sort it out in camp.
Alexander, Whitner, Davis, McDonald, Joyner, maybe even Sensabaugh who got a look at safety in Tennessee.

wonder if they plan to use him in Barron's old role. now that Barron is technically a LB they could go back to the big nickel (4-2-5) and have Whitner as the 5th db.

TJ played FS at USC one or two years. Didn't he? I always thought he could pull it off with Williams role for free safety.
