Lamarcus Joyner on bigger role with Rams: 'A dream come true'

[Faceplant]

I keep forgetting that we signed NRC and Webster. This secondary will have a few more options scheme wise this year I think. Certainly more depth at key positions....

In Greg Williams defense the FS played way back for support.

In Wades defense I think he will be able to come up a lot more.

I'm looking forward to some smash mouth, snot knocking D football from Wade's D. Joyner, Mo, Barwin, Tree and Webster all like to lay the wood.

"The difference between the league and high school and college is availability, accountability and dependability," Joyner said. "Some guys get fed with the golden spoon, some guys don’t. Unfortunately, I had to take the path where I had to prove myself year in and year out. It’s been paying off."

Joyner's my kind of dude, I love the underdog types and I'm pulling for him.

If I had to handicap how it'll end up, I would guess he simply stays at FS and Robey-Coleman stays at nickel. If RC struggles at the nickel we'll see Joyner playing it when the package is in, but I think him at full-time FS will be best for the defense vice the moving back and forth simply because you then have to replace him at FS. It's basically a question of who's better between RC and the FS depth option.
