I don't care for the kid but he's not completely in the dark.
I don't see how you don't have a raised eyebrow that he said he'd start.

Nah I'm good with anything to do with him, but to each his own. But for me, fuck anything he says. We'll eventually find out if this is the case or not.

I don't care much either way about Jake, but I do wish he'd learn to be more careful in how he uses language sometimes. Saying ""he will be the starting center" is just plain unprofessional IMO. Jake has no way of knowing that. That's his opinion, and he should state it as such. He's done this before, where he loses some credibility when he tries to give the impression he's more plugged in than he really is.

I agree. That's the kind of shit armchair GMs like us do on message boards. Which is fine, but don't expect me to tune in to your show as if you have some crucial insight when you're basically a fan with a mic.

Well most of us think Jake is that stupid. I just don't think the Rams are that stupid.

Ah, FFS.
The kid is pursuing his dream. Just off the top of my head, I've noticed that Jake has had interviews with Tory Holt, Roland Williams, Steven Jackson, and Andrew Whitworth. And Jake has some sort of Rams show on cable TV here in the LA area.
Again, I don't really care much for Jake's stuff and think he is still is a long way from being a pro. But I don't begrudge him for working hard to pursue his dream. No need to give him shit or call him stupid.

Twitter is filled with those types. They somehow get a following because they tweet relevant things and then they eventually start talking like they're plugged in. Not talking about Jake here. He at least does a lot of videos and scouting. But there's like 5 Rams accounts where it's just fans constantly talking about what the team is doing or what Mcvay is thinking. And they'll say things like "if you don't think Mcvay is" bla bla bla. Drives me crazy lol.

He grinds hard. No one can take that away. He's just got to work on some of the snark, imo.

Jake is my guy. Really enjoy him, but I disagree on the money and starting bit.

You can’t completely disregard what he said as Coleman Shelton did grade higher than Beaux Limmer, but I still think Limmer’s upside is far higher.

Good for him. Happy for him that he's pursuing his dream. Doesn't mean I have to care for, respect or even tolerate his work and his trolling. I've seen too many garbage comments and bad takes from him to care. After his AD mess he gets no credit from me but that's just me and just as he's entitled to say, write and tweet whatever he wants I'm likewise entitled to do the same.

In a couple aspects he did. Also you have to care about PFF grades if you want to think Shelton gets anything from that ranking. Also a 6 year vet should be much better than a rookie 6th round pick. Sorry I and all of us have watched Shelton long enough to know what he is and most aren't sold on him as an NFL starter. He was small and weak as our center when he started and most on the board couldn't wait for him to be gone and now suddenly after being the Center on one of the worst lines in the game we're supposed to think he's good? Won't happen here I hope he never steps on the field.

I understand that we all have an opinion. I happen to like his take on a lot of things. I've seen worse.
The Rams digest people need to learn how to articulate their words better when they have their podcasts on YouTube.
Don't get me wrong they're very informative but I just can't listen to them for very long
