That’s a bad look for Tet - especially when it comes to a team like the Rams. I can’t see them drafting a guy (that high too) who isn’t a football junkie. Like AD said - give me guys who care

@Memento @WestCoastRam I just heard that Restrepo ran so slow because his hammy tightened up and he toughed it out. Apparently, he was running 4.53 to 4.58 in the week leading up.

Will be interesting to see where he goes, could be they're doing damage control.

Honestly feels like he duplicates too much of what we already have on the roster so not sure he's someone we're interested in.

Hard time thinking he falls all the way to the end of the 3rd day.

Starting to hear Kyle Williams name a lot and that he's way too low on public draft boards compared to where teams have him.

Agreed, think he'd be a great pick in the 3rd and I see a lot of people calling him a 6th round pick.

No surprise.

Just for fun I decided to take a look at some of the consensus top 100 draftnik media boards on that mock draft database website and couldn't believe my eyes. Scroll all the way down to the bottom to see players left off. I just saw one that didn't list Abdul Carter at all.

Even so, it’s not exactly confidence inducing :)

I guess it would be if you didn't find out anything about him now. Though if you just write off a good player based on so.ething from his freshman year you deserve to miss out on a good player.

If they can't get Cam Ward, I get it. They may have the #1 pick in 2026. LOL

They may but there are other bad teams. They had the best pass rusher in the NFL last year and one of the better CB last year. And their record? You either have a QB or you're picking in the top 10 every year. Look at that top 10:

Patriots appear to have their QB.
Jags have a QB who's good but their team has been shit and he's been not as good as hoped.
Panthers weren't sure but their young guy rebounded during the season so maybe they do.
Bears seem to have taken theirs last year.

You either take your QB or you're telling your fans "Yeah we don't care about you just get over us sucking every year"

I hear you. It's such a tough dilemma. What if you don't believe in Sanders or Dart. The fans have to understand. They took a big swing on Watson and that failed spectacularly.

You've got to try though because even if the QB fails you're still a bad team. Hunter or Carter aren't going to make you a better team if you still don't have a QB.
