1st Round | Pick 10, Rams select: RB Todd Gurley

[dieterbrock]

The guy is the best college RB ive seen in forever. Holy crap, I cant believe we just drafted him

 

[Ballhawk]

WOW!
Are they now going to try to trade one of our other backs?

 

[OC_Ram]

I guess you NEED to be Gurley to run behind our o line.

 

[Sleepy1711]

Nice!! But can he change his name to Manly?

 

[DR RAM]

True BPA.

 

[dbrooks25]

I don't get it either. Who is going to block for him? We've got two starters on the Oline and a bunch of backups.

I'm pretty sure the coaches and f.o. know something that we don't. At least I hope they do!

 

[CGI_Ram]

What I like: we're obviously picking BPA

What I don't like: our plan for the oline remains MIA

 

[nanotech]

I picked a bad time to quit drinking.

We cry about BPA all the time when the need picks bust. Guerly was BPA. The only other acceptable pick at 10 was Parker. Glad they didn't force a need pick. If healthy Guerly is AP. Guy is outstanding. Go watch him on YouTube. He has it all.

YouTube?? Ok, then watch Melvin Gordon highlights. Confused by this pick for a couple of reasons...

Interesting pick. I get the feeling everything they're doing is geared to win in 2016. Possibly a lame duck team in St. Louis. Picking a guy they have to wait for when they have other immediate needs. If Fisher and Snead are willing to wait and possibly end up with another losing season, I gotta think Kroenke made it clear he's giving them a pass if they have another losing season. Build now and have a team ready for LA in 2016. Just a thought.

Fellas....there's still quite a few players that can still be oline starters in the 2nd and 3rd round. Relax.

I was talking with friends and said I, being a UGA homer, would love Todd Gurley with our pick! Funny on this board, before his injury, people were hoping Gurley would be a Rams! This is a Jeff Fisher type of runner who is bigger, faster and stronger than Tre Mason! Hopefully his knee is AP strong and if so this will be a fun season!

Go Rams!

Melvin Gordon is great. Gurley is greater.

 

[jmyb53]

ACL, ACL, ACL

 

[den-the-coach]

Great job Guys many of you had this as the BPA.

 

[Ramrasta]

This was a ballsy and high risk pick. It's very difficult for me to like this one. Just wow....

 

[FRO]

This draft is incredibly weak. I would have liked if we could trade down, but we got the BPA. Can't fault them for that. AP fell because of injury too.

Oh No! We suck again!

Called it! Who am I kidding? No one called that.

I want it to be known right off that I only support this pick if he turns out to be great. If he turns out to be a dud just remember I never supported it then. Say what?

Maybe a trade of one of the Rams other RB's is in the works? They are kind of log jammed back there now.

Do I get credit for this?

I believe I was the 1st to make a thread called:

"Todd Gurley, Would You?"
