His source was right on Wagner... Rumor: Rams/Mathieu

[payote75]

At this point teams likely wait until after the draft to sign veteran players

Exactly that's why I think tyrann isn't a ram yet honestly. I gave it 70/30 still believe that and after the draft in may comp formula not a thing.

I think that is part of it, but I also think some of it is trying to get the new AD extension in place.

Message to other teams according to the media: If you team wants a player, he's ours you bitches!

I think even the ad contract is in place, a few more signings/trades happen.

Im sure some teams might be, but doubt the draft will be a factor for us if we want him. We wont get a player of his quality with our picks. Not to mention he was the leader of the KC defense and won the super bowl. Adding Wagz and Tyrann just from a leadership standpoint would be huge. And after losing D Williams it doesn't make sense to put Ramsey inside a lot next year. Im sure we will occasionally, but allowing Mathieu to play the Star with Ramsey outside would be ideal.

With DD, Long, Rochelle, and likely a rookie corner drafted, if we sign Tyrann are we weak in the secondary?? Fuller/Scott deep. Rapp as the 3rd safety. Tyrann can cover the slot playing Star and move around as well. Just offers a ton of flexibility for us the more I think about it. We should be able to find a starter across from Ramsey between DD, Long, and Rochelle.

The idea of him in slot/star sounds like a perfect fit.

The longer he sits out there, the more I am starting to believe it could happen.

If it is like last year, at 4pm the Monday after the draft Free Agent signings no longer effect the comp pick formula.

Seems a good guess we don’t see any Rams activity until after then.

Tyrann would be a nice edition but having Deayon and or Long as starters is not a good plan.

Then you look at the depth. They need upgrades at corner.

They definitely need CBs in the draft. Probably a safety too. It seems the plan is Rochell opposite Ramsey. I hope they resign Deayon, so he, Long and a couple of draft picks can be in the mix. What happened to Burgess playing nickle? They could sign somebody after the draft too. I feel confident they'll solve things there.

If it is, I hope it's us. He also might just be feeling spiritual currently.

Not understanding why the Rams would have interest in Hicks who is a 6-5/335-340 lb NT who will be 33 yrs old this season? This former Bear NT has missed many major portions & complete games over the last 3 seasons. Hick only finished 3 gms in 2019 & 6 games in 2021. ????

To add to my small brain confusion Rams invested by drafting NT Bobby Brown 6-4/335 & utilize him rarely. In 2021 Ram extended DT Robinson's 6-4/330 contract from 2 to 3 seasons.....both are the same size.

Guess Ram don like our starting NT Greg Gaines or run-stuffer Marquise Copeland too

How many run-stuffing NT's do the Rams need? That is a ton of beef inside with the very little outside.

As I said later a rotational guy. He's not going to get money but he's a vet and McVay seems to like having those guys around and maybe Morris likes him.

 

[Rams43]

Hicks just makes no sense for the Rams right now,

I think Rams are more focused on CB and edge. And I suspect that they want to get something done before the damned draft.

Hicks's health certainly has demonstrated he is no longer a full-time starter & is trending @ an increasing speed toward retirement. Hick just might be seeking a chance to win an SB Championship ring too.

DC Morris also might be planning to utilize a lot more standard 43 defensive scheme that he is much more familiar with in 2022 since the Rams have big concern issues with 34 D ER's.

Hicks still has value if he can be utilized as a designated part-time player in a rotation this Henderson DL. Limiting his well-seasoned well-used body to all those blows & bangs.

Does Hicks allow Donald to play more outside?

Not sure I like the idea of Donald playing EDGE

Agreed Jourdan mentioned it yesterday but she made it a point to say it doesn't mean things aren't happening and moving parts aren't moving.
