Now imagine this with Marcus Peters on the other side, with Joyner on the back end this secondary is going to be nastttttttttttttttyyyyyyyyyyy!!

 

[Flatlyner]

Not to mention Hill was looking good late last year, and he had looked good previous year. I like our CB depth for sure. This frees us up to address LB and NT in the draft this year.

This is going to be a lot of fun.

 

[Farr Be It]

:flanders: "Aqib, can you tell us why you chose the Rams over the Patriots?"

"Because I actually want to WIN the Superbowl."

 

[T-REX]

There will be a lot of sacks to be had that’s for sure.

 

[Legatron4]

So maybe my crazy prediction of having Talib, Peters and Trumaine is going to come true?

 

[WestCoastRam]

Where are we with the cap now?!? Where will we be with cutting Austin?? How about Barron??

 

[nighttrain]

i can see Peters and Talib having a hellava good time competing against each other, @opponents QB's expense
train

 

[Boston Ram]

Love it!!!

 

[WestCoastRam]

Our starting secondary is set (outside nickel that is which is a part time position).

Luke warm on him, 32 and probably declining. I'd rather have Tru

I'm listening @Ram65, convince me he's not on the downhill slide at 32 playing CB

I'm excited about getting Talib. Still a pro bowl player that teams stayed away from even at 32. He comes with a contract of 11 Mil and 8 Mil for two years. That is almost the amount TruJo gets for one year. I say he is a better fit as a physical press in your face CB than TruJo. The dude is super competitive. He can make up a little speed lose with technique. He isn't the 27 year old version but, he still has some juice in the tank.

Part of an article.............
He’d make his first Pro Bowl the following season, then depart in free agency to sign a six-year, $57 million deal with the Broncos. He’d been just as good in Denver, earning Pro Bowl honors each year with the team, returning six interceptions for touchdowns, and making five tackles in his team’s 24-10 Super Bowl 50 victory over the Panthers. Despite a down year in interceptions and tackle, Talib was rarely targeted by opposing quarterbacks last season. When he was, he was still quite efficient in coverage.

Wow! First Peters, then Talib, and throw in veteran Sam Shields as babysitter:yess:. Phillips has it all figured out!

Rams leadership not screwing around, giving Phillips ammo, and I bet they're just getting started.

Next up, Linebackers.:boxing:

I know it would be crazy, and there's only so many corners on the field at once, but Trumaine re-upping would be something else.

I know it's a bit of a pipe dream, but it's not like any of these corners are locked in for long. Peters and Talib are on 2 year deals and Talib likely wouldn't be brought back after his is done unless it's for a near vet min. price.

Wishful thinking, I know.

Cost a 5th

That's more than I expected.

 

[wolfdogg]

Now get Bradham at LB and move up for vea.

 

[DR RAM]

We are putting our players on blast. If you want to be a Ram, then prove it. Drag your feet, and they are going to get caught in the door on the way out.

 

[jrry32]

I'll be sad if we don't get NRC back.

 

[Akrasian]

So Talib's cap hit is around Quinn's salary and roster bonus for 2018.
