Peat has a lot of fans in the scouting community, and teams seem to quietly love the guy. He went into the process as the top tackle prospect, a la Matthews last year, and a couple of guys (Flowers mostly, but Clemmings for a while was in this category) have climbed the boards due to physical upside, a la GRob.
Flowers is the guy that scares me. I have not seen a ton on him but what I have seen he looks sort of stiff and stops moving his feet when he locks on to a guy in the running game.
It's just weird how many odd little quirks he has to his game, like where he lines up on the ball for one (seriously, I've never in my life seen an OT who lines up on the LOS as much as he does), how wide his hands are in his kickstep, and how he plays so insanely high, pretty much the definition of a waist bender.
Okay. Why?
First off, the Rams weren't painted into a corner last year like they are now. When reports are saying the Rams are eyeing players that fit their glaring need, red flags go up(though I know stuff can't be trusted this time of year. I'm assuming for the sake of discussion that it is true). If they were truly going to be reactionary, they wouldn't be focused on one position.
Don't hold it back Boni!!I would like to add IMO the Ram OL on field performances from present going back over a decade is & has been ....old, injured, weak, IR'd, frail, injured, discombobulated, slow, injured, bewildered, IR'd rehabbing, in surgery, injured, confused, injured, dazed, fragile, injured, brittle, pathetic, injured, venerable, breakable, aged, injured, debilitated, befuddled, pitiful, injured & just plain SORRY !
