I feel that Bennett has more talent than Garropolo. He has a stronger arm and quicker feet. I'm fine with him being a #2 and letting Garropolo go. I'm also leaning toward hoping they wait a year for a Stafford replacement. Levis, Simpson, and Payton look the part of a Stafford replacement - but I have big doubts and would rather the Rams go all in for 2026. Worry about 2027 when it happens. Stafford could stay three more years - focussing on his replacement now could be a complete waste of a draft pick or free agency $. The opportunity cost of trying to get his replacement this year could be not winning the Super Bowl.

Wow! I don't agree with any of that. But that's part of what makes this stuff fun.

BTW ... Welcome to ROD!

Also, Watch-out for @Loyal ...

And AR can make some good throws. I'm not pounding the table for him but the guy has thrown less passes post High School than Bo Nix threw last year. Like others I'm curious what he would do with some good coaching.

I am surprised about Food/Dining Area and Locker Room being a D. Anyone know anything about that?

I was too! Must be talking about the Cal Lutheran (?) site where they are set up in portable buildings. No way is this about SoFi! Just wait till the Culver City location is ready!

It's certainly not crazy to consider him, given his talent level. And I am sure the Rams are looking at him.

But in these situations what they're going to focus on is who he is in terms of his mentality and approach, and then things like his capacity to learn. And McVay will be using his coaching connections, as would Snead with his side, to try to determine all that.

We're left to read this shit from the outside. So I know I could be wrong about him. But this dude might be the most monumental QB tease in the history of the NFL. :laugh2:

This is the thing, if we use 13 on Staffords replacement, we hinder our SB chances for this season. If we are going the route of not worrying about our future QB this year, I'd think McSnead potentially have their eye on getting a younger vet via trade when Staff hangs them up. Can't see picking high enough next year to grab one of the franchise guys.
