Best Left for 2nd

[Ramon Ram]

It will also be the first time since the movie Pretty Woman that I will be rooting for a Hooker.

Again hoping I am wrong here, but I am connecting the dots.

How about the Sting, Hooker was one to root for for those that go back that far.

Being able to successfully run the ball isnt a luxury, its a necessity

All of us want OL & DL, however, will the Rams go in that direction?

 

[I like Rams]

I'm personally hoping for Torrence and Branch tonight. We all know we need to beef up our oline, and I think Ramsey being gone will leave a big hole in our D. I feel Branch could work in Morris's star position.

Why are you yelling (blue font).

I got lazy with cut and paste of the names......ooops! LOL

Those are my top 2 and Branch has some distance between him and Torrence but both are fine.
I have been on Branch's wagon awhile but S as some have pointed out aren't as valued as they once were. It's a get to the QB or defends the receiver league. S and LB are not valued as highly. Branch has great instincts is a sure tackler and has enough speed and mobility to get there.

If at the time they are on the clock, and the BPA on their board matches up, then sure. But if a 1st round talent that they werent expecting to be available is there, they could go in that direction too

Fastest player in the draft.

Yeah but he naps everyday between 1and 3.

The more I think about it, the more I think we go TE with pick 36.

I heard that none of Will Levis’ teammates went to his birthday party.

Wasn't that a plot point on the movie "Draft Day" with Costner?

If you want OL and we aren't going QB in rd 2 then we would be best to trade down to lower 2nd and grab a couple 3rds where you can get decent OL. Not worth taking in high 2nd for one guy.

To me that would be a wasted pick. We already have a young healthy quality TE with Higby. Yes he's a free agent in 2024 but still.

A tight end won't make a poor running team into a good one. Might make a marginal difference, but if you want to improve your running game, you need to start investing premium choices in the offensive line. Like contenders typically do. And like McSnead generally do not, unfortunately.

What?
Of course it does. An inline TE who blocks like an OT in 12 formation absolutely improves the run game.
Maybe you were supposed to use blue font?

There is some room to upgrade at TE over what we get from Higs. He is a guy you scheme open. Replace him with a guy who gets open or who can body DBs even when he's not open and we're a better offense.

I think someone trades for the top pick tonight for a QB. Maybe even two teams trade up in the top few picks for both of these QBs. Hopefully it’s not the first four picks because I want the Rams to be the ones trading down and getting a big return. More round 3-5 picks the better. More chances at building to roster with some quality starters down the road.

But if we stay at 36, regardless of who we pick, Les absolutely needs to nail that pick and get a stud starter. Pressure is definitely on.

Id they go QB at 36, that would really tell you that the 2023 season is going to be a major rebuilding (downer) year.

What's the color font to use for a straw man?

 

[Merlin]

If two teams swoop in for QBs that means one of Porter / Torrence / Branch are on the board at 36.

And then of course we will take Tank Dell.

 

[So Ram]

There's still maneuvering to be done if we keep 36. We can trade back from 69 or try trading up from the 5th... possibly do both.

Les Snead always works the phones.

I guess you need a dictionary? Straw man? Lol
If you truly dont understand how a TE like Washington instantly improves the run game, then I dont know what to say .

I think that teams would trade up for QB out of fear that Rams will take one.
And then Michael Mayer is there for the taking
