No player outperforms his body type more than Matt Longacre.
Lamarcus Joyner has outstanding range and coverage flexibility, is also a great hitter.
Love Aaron Donald, but how does a member of a run D that ranked 30th in yards allowed per attempt run away with Defensive Player of the Year?
CBs Talib and Peters need a potent pass rush in front of them. Their gambles work when defense forces the ball out early. When it doesn’t, gambles can backfire.
#Rams defense star-studded in places, but questions at wide DE, LB and safety, and almost no back 7 depth to speak of.
#Rams might miss Tavon Austin. His gadgetry brought a lot of deception to the scheme.
Andrew Whitworth is most commanding pass-blocker in NFL in terms of fundamentals, but only when he’s dictating the terms. When he’s in reaction mode, his age shows.
Kupp has a high-level understanding of how plays are designed to beat specific coverages.
#Rams will be great in 3x1 sets this year. Gurley as receiver here, Cooks drawing double-teams on weak side.
Gerald Everett an important piece for #Rams. McVay wants a receiving TE like he had in Washington (Jordan Reed).
#Rams OL under Aaron Kromer was the most improved unit in NFL last year.
It’s between Aaron Kromer and Bill Callahan for best zone-oriented OL coach in football.
Left side of #Rams OL, especially guard Saffold, is as good as any in the screen game.
Gurley has good wiggle but not GREAT change-of-direction. Those are 2 subtly different things.
Gurley a perfect fit in a zone scheme and backfield screen passing game like #Rams feature.
Goff must get better in messy pockets. He’s shown progress here.
Jared Goff a more talented Kirk Cousins. You can go far with that.
#Rams on the cusp of being the best play-action offense in football.
McVay masterful in the hurry-up game, imagine he’ll play 3-WR packages and go hurry-up a lot in 2018.
