May 20 2016: Updating a previous item, Rams DT Dominique Easley's one-year contract is worth $600,000 and contains no guaranteed money. It's a no-risk, high-reward deal for the Rams. The $600K is the league minimum for third-year players, and should Easley not hold up, the Rams can release him with no salary-cap penalty. The former first-rounder's knees are allegedly in bad shape, but Easley has always been highly effective when on the field.

The Rams’ interior pass rush gets even better with Dominique Easley signing: It came as something of a surprise when the New England Patriots released Easley, their first-round draft pick from 2014. The move was reportedly more due to off-field reasons than his play on the field, which makes sense given that, when healthy, Easley was a pretty good defensive lineman for New England.
He had the 12th-highest grade among defensive tackles in 2015, playing just 275 snaps. While he graded positively against the run, it was as a pass-rusher where he really made his mark. Rushing the passer on 210 of his 275 snaps, Easley had the highest pass-rushing productivity of any defensive tackle in the NFL at 12.9. With three sacks, eight hits and 24 hurries, not even new teammate Aaron Donald was as productive on a per-snap basis.
If (big if) those knees hold up and his chronic injuries allow him to play the majority of the season, D.Easley will have a much BIGGER impact than Nick Fairley did.

Easley might just think he died and went to heaven here on this Ram DL.
Talk about pride and peer pressure to motivate an incoming player. Coples, too, for that matter.
And to play under GW and Waufle while in LA?
I mean, does it get any better than all that?
Don't see how either player could ask for a better "prove it" opportunity. Do y'all?

LOL at PFF claiming Easley to be ahead of Donald in anything. He had 9 tackles last year, Donald had 11 sacks. Easley wasn't that productive in college either.
A reclamation project who washed out in two years with a winning organization. Anything we get from him is a bonus.
