Boom not gonna be on the 2020 roster, So Ram?
You’ve got breaking news here for us? Got a link? Lol.
I'm guessing speculation on the injury, but we will see?

I still like Noteboom to backup Whit, with Brewer being a swing G/T too and I might trust him more then Evans at LT, but IMO, Evans showed enough at RT to offer upside. If Noteboom is recovered, he is more of a Tackle then Guard and played much better at that position. Demby is toast, unless Brian Allen showcases anything, the Rams might be better off with Shelton or Trewyn, however, if there is any preseason play I expect to see quite a bit of Chandler Brewer.
Evans is a key guy to watch no doubt. His film was worse than I remembered it when I went back and rewatched 2019, but I don't blame the guy too much there most of these players need time to transition to this level. The bigger question is whether he's a potential factor at LG.
IMO he's a bit like Boom, not quite as finesse as Boom is but similar in that both need to get a lot stronger if they want to start on the interior. So I don't expect him to push Corbett at LG. I feel like there will be a secret LT competition going on behind the scenes with Evans & Boom both in that particular running.
LG is going to be Corbett vs Brewer and Anchrum. So it will be our biggest camp competition on the line followed by C where Allen will get a chance to unseat Blythe.
McVay is on record as saying Boom should be available for camp practices. He said that months ago, btw.
Unless you’ve got something solid saying otherwise, I think I’ll take McVay at his word for now.

I was happy to see this but I look at this statement in light general terms....... How much Noteboom will be able to do in the many diverse practice type programs is the big question for me.McVay is on record as saying Boom should be available for camp practices. He said that months ago, btw.
When Jamil Demby got his name called by Kromer to replace the injured Austin Blythe @ RG during the Saints game early 2nd half of Chandler Brewer was on the sideline in street clothes as a Practice Squad member. When Demby was anointed starter for the Browns game wk #3 @ RG, once again Brewer was still in street clothes as a PS member. Demby's Brown game performance was a disaster & a Ram loss. The following wk Blythe looked like he needed a wheelchair to get into the huddle as he started wk#4 against the Bucs. In truth, Blythe most likely should have not played as injured as he was in that Ram loss.Brewer looks like a future started to me.How Denby got the nod as first man off the bench is a mystery. Brewer came in and instantly looked like he could start of need be.Denby, not so much. I'd cut bait on Allen & I bet Brewer has a better career than Noteboom.

By wk#6 Demby remained the top reserve for Kromer. When starting LG Noteboom destroyed his knee early against the 9ers....its was Demby to the rescue that helped the Rams in that loss. Demby's performance was just as good as it was against the Browns. Demby never suited up again for Kromer in 2019 but Demby still was on the master roster while Brewer was in still on the PS.
Kromer promoted rookie 5th rd draft pick David Edwards to replace Noteboom as starter over Demby for wk#7 against the Falcons in a very big win. It was OG/OC Coleman Shelton who then suited up & continued to do so from that point on over Demby as the main top reserve that game. By this time Snead was busy trying to make the trade for LG Austin Corbett. Brewer remained on the PS.
Wk#10 Rams lost 2 starting OL'ers to knee injuries OC Allen & RT Havenstein... neither played again in 2019. Rams went into the wk#9 game with newly acquired Corbett & Shelton dressed as the only two reserves. #8 OL'er Evans & #9 OL'er Demby did not dress for that game. Brewer remained on the PS.
The big changes with Kromer came after wk #10 poor OL performance. Austin Blythe was inserted to starting OC from RG to replace the injured Allen. LG David Edwards was flipped from starting LG into Blythe's starting RG post. #7 reserve Austin Corbett was promoted to starting LG in place of RG Edwards. Bobby Evans Previously in street clothes during #10 loss was promoted to starting RT.
It was during this week the Rams reformulated their 2019 OL with 4 out of the 5 starters in new positions. Oh by the way.... Snead promoted OT/OG Chandler Brewer to the roster & signed him up for the 2019/2020 seasons. Interior OL Nate Trewyn was signed to replace Chandler Brewer on the PS. Snead did make a big mistake here he should have signed Brewer to longer term contract.
Kromer rode Brewer & Shelton for the rest of the season as his only dressed active reserve OL'ers. Both saw snaps with the offense @ times. Brewer gave breaks to LT Whitworth & RT Evans for very short periods of time in the lineup. Shelton was the interior short period reserve.

From all that I can read on Demby is he is a really great guy who is well liked by his fellow Ram players. I am sure that due to his nature, all wanted him to have a good chance to succeed. Big problem was he could not deliver even after being here as a Ram for two training camps & two preseasons.I don’t recall Whitworth going down & Brewer taking his place ??I do recall the last game against Arizona & Evans was playing hurt.
Brewer was not ready & I quoted you then that Goff might have got hurt if it would have been another series.
Good stuff. Demby though does have that experience & you never know how he took lossing his job as a backup. He is still young & has more upside than he ever has. I think he will be a journey OLman ??
I hope not. I believe I understand your point & agree fully.I think you miss my point. When Brewer finally became a steady backup, he looked to be miles ahead of Demby. Despite Demby mainly backing up on the interior, and Brewer at both tackle spots, I think Brewer could have done a better job at any position than Demby. Brewer has always looked capable and affective, where Dembyy liked incapable and damn near listless.
Maybe Brewer was not healthy? But Demby was so bad that he didn't even look like a good college player. If not Brewer replacing him sooner then it should have been Edwards. Online mismanagement last season was a debacle early on.
I hope not. I believe I understand your point & agree fully.
Your last sentence above is directly on target as one of the main issues that gave us the 2019 ending results. How could our OL coaches (Kromer/Dickerson) & the other Offensive coaches not have been fully aware of the absence of skill & talent of Demby along with the shortcomings of other depended on OL'ers going into the season?
As you brought out ...there was a very good possibility Elmgrovegnome that young rookie Chandler Brewer might have been significantly atrophied in his muscular tissue after undergoing the past years' cancer treatment early 2019. Thus resulted in him not making the master roster over Demby at first.
I must remind myself the Rams had just drafted two OT's Evans & Edwards plus had their 2018 top drafted OT starting @ LG. So another 6-6-320 pound OT Brewer was just not needed at that time. The obvious concerns then were @ OG. Demby had been utilized by Kromer in 2018 season primarily @ the OG positions in TC & preseason. When Demby was resigned it was once again for back up @ OG.
So our initial top 3 OG's in 2019 (Noteboom/ Blythe & Demby) are no longer slotted to play there again in 2020. So this new season Rams have furbished up their 2020 OG unit with a good size amount of interior OL'ers (Edwards/ Corbett/ Anchrum/ Kolone/ Cabral/ Shelton / Trewyn & maybe even Brewer).
I am glad they are rehabbing together & I am sure they all have excellent solid relationships.Right now I’ll just wait and see how things workout for 2020. I just like the Depth & have said so since the end of 2019.
Whitworth,Hav,Blythe,& Allen all were rehabbing together. I think there relationships are solid,and I think Kromer is good at Cross-Teaining. I have no idea how things will totally play out. Really don’t think Anchorman makes the squad.
I am glad they are rehabbing together & I am sure they all have excellent solid relationships.
That's great, but I prefer that Whitworth- Havenstein- Blythe & Allen can manage together to produce a far better OL than #31 ranked NFL OL, like last season.
Reference all that Kromer "cross-training" praise ...................I say enough already having OL'ers playing every known position known to modern NFL. I have grown tired of so much Ol musical chair songs. There is just not much time in today's NFL anymore for the needed practices & the Ol needs more than the other units.
NFL practice times keep getting shorter as time moves on. Very good chance practice times get shorter in the future & they were short to begin with. You better use your few seconds a practice to find your best 3 OT's best 3 OG's & best 2 OC's & get your one master versatile multi OL (OC/OG/OT) as your #9 OL'er. Get that OL set ASAP & go with it.
Next plan to send your best three versatile OL'ers in the new enlarged practice squad instead! OL'ers experience so many injuries each season lets be better prepared on this OL, so we can go get that SB win this season!
Snead only has four draft picks in 2021. I do not see Snead wasting an invaluable hard to find 2020 draft selection on player {Tremayne Anchrum} who the Rams do not think can be contracted to fill a future needed role in the organization, either on the Rams' player roster or the Rams practice squad. I expect you will have a surprise coming your way this TC & preseason on the subject of Ol'er Anchrum.
