With the Nick Foles trade rumors swirling this week you might have to think if Marcus Mariota drops in the draft and he falls to pick #10 where the Rams reside at the moment things could get interesting. In looking at the post season college all star games the rookie QB market is as bad as it has ever been, the East West Shrine Game had undraftable QB's and Senior Bowl had 4th-7th round QB's at best with none to seriously challenge Sam Bradford for a starting spot though Garrett Grayson intrigue's me. Which brings me to Nick Foles. He had a Pro-Bowl 2013 and I think maybe injuries hindered his performance along with the loss of Desean Jackson who is a top 10 talent when healthy, Maclin is good but Jackson is a difference maker.
If Mariota somehow drops to #10 then Rams should be on the phone with Philly or Philly might beat them, now its time to work out a deal that would send Nick Foles, # 2, and #4 pick in 2015 to the Rams for the Rams # 10 pick and Janoris Jenkins and Philly is able to get their franchise QB and knock out another need they have and the Rams get a proven QB who can challenge and push Sam for starting job and we recoup the two picks we gave up in Barron trade. I really think Fish might be ready to get rid of Janoris who is an above average cornerback but just not disciplined enough for the Gregg Williams scheme and I think Fish is just tired of it and E.J. Gaines makes Janoris expendable. If I have to live through another double move TD Janoris gives up then I am just going to break my TV.
With the 20th pick the Rams select P.J. Williams from Florida State and you say why, this pick would allow Fish to move Trumaine Johnson to FS to compete with Rodney McLeod, Tru has great ball skills and coverage ability and might be much better on the back end of the defense, we definitely need someone with better coverage ability for the better passing teams we will face.
With the two 2nd Round selections the Rams address the OL, the free agent market for interior lineman is not that great and we will need to overspend to get one of the good ones, my opinion would be to get either the center from Oakland or the center from KC, Iupati and Orlando Franklin do not excite me for our OG needs as both have short comings. Iupati is liability in pass game and Franklin is more for zone-blocking scheme. Some good picks for OL would be Arie Koundjo from Alabama and Donavon Smith from Penn State, these are two solid OL prospects who could start at left guard and right tackle from Day 1, our OL goes from a weakness to a strength.
The third round would be dedicated to WR to replace Chris Givens who can't get past the mental aspect of being a receiver (he can't forget the last bad play). I believe we look for another speed vertical threat that we are sorely missing as this will open up things for Tavon in the middle of the field. Tavon is just to small to be consistent vertical threat as you need someone who can high point the catch over the DB. Look for us to target someone like Philip Dorsett or Devon Smith.
The 4th round should be allocated for LB and I am thinking someone like Stephen Anthony from Clemson would be good fit for Strong side backer to develop and maybe start year 1, I do believe we will sign someone in free agency who could start for maybe a year or two.
5th Round should be allocated to developmental OG/C type like the Garcia kid from Florida who can use a year or two to develop in pro system and challenge for a job down the line but provide some insurance in the event of injury.
Knowing Les Snead he might trade away our final draft picks if they are not comp picks as this is not a deep draft so our FA rookie signings will be up this year.
Let me know what you think?
