What the? Im surprised theyre willing to keep 2 after this preseason. Id release all of them aside from Kaep, and grab Pryor to be the backup. Similiar to Kaep anyway.

If he is picked up by another team, I wonder if they will handle the media attention as well as the Rams have or will it become a distraction?
What's interesting to me is even after they get to 53, they still have to trade/release/waive others if they want to add someone to the roster.
I guess the 3rd stringer played for him in college. Johnson, IIRC. Perhaps if he sends the GM a gift basket he might get the QB he wants. The thought of him pouting in his office just brightens my day. I may whistle a little.

It's never really over for the bubble guys. When Bailey comes back they will need to release another. As the season unfolds others will also go as they change personnel.
It depends on the location of the fan base, and whether he rushes the passer well.
Jim ThomasVerified account@jthom1Rams to release cornerback Greg Reid and LB Lawrence Wilson. That leaves just four more cuts to reach 53.
Keep in mind that Watts played all 4 special team units against Miami
Hope they bring back Reid for PS.
I wonder if we are just as guilty of overrating league interest of Rams releases like the fans of the other teams around the league posting on other message boards.
Jim Thomas @jthom1 · 3m. . .to keep him on active roster. Meaning the 4th TE job would go to Alex Bayer. And that would leave 3 roster moves for Rams to reach 53.
Jim Thomas @jthom1 · 4mI'm told TE Justice Cunningham came out of the Dolphins game with a high ankle sprain. That would probably make it impossible for Rams. . .
Who are the players left that are on the bubble?
Bayer, Cunningham (likely cut), Sam, Conrath, Roberson, Reynolds, Watts, Bryant?

@caplannfl: While things could change by 4 pm, indications are that #Rams UDFA RB Trey Watts should be on the roster at the end of the day.

You always hear a lot about trading cast offs, cuts or players on the bubble. whatever your preferred tile is to other teams. Usually their marketability is greatly exaggerated and there isn't as much compensation available as hoped. We will probably IMO just add a waiver wire player or 2 for depth.I wonder if we are just as guilty of overrating league interest of Rams releases like the fans of the other teams around the league posting on other message boards.
