Last FA Gifts under the Christmas Tree

[dang]

I know Rams Cap $$$ is tight but I want to open a couple more Christmas gifts before taking a much needed nap:

- DL depth - socks (Westbrooks) or even better some new Nikes (Shelton, Liuget, Jernigan or Wilkerson)
- RB1B - golf balls (Brown) or how about a new Calloway driver (CJ Anderson, Jay Ajayi, Isaiah Crowell)
- OG - gift card (Ryan Groy) or tickets to the Black Keys concert (Quinton Spain, TJ Lang)

I suspect Brown is not happy with the golf balls association.

"I got Blake Bortles....good grief."

So not so clever analogies aside - I believe the Rams will draft BPA with their first pick - whether the trade down or keep their 1st round pick. I personally hope its a DL or EDGE player that can start. They will undoubtedly add a FA RB but I hope they find a way to add another solid FA OL and DL player for depth.

It sucks when your sister steals your
present and you don’t realize till out pops a Roger Saffold and she runs off with it.

I got a feeling our 1st pick will be a CB w/ starting abilities then add 2-DL and 2-ILB 2- OL 1TE/RB?

In reference to

The way things stand at this time OL and DL will need to be addressed early in the draft.

It’ll all be about the trenches in this year’s draft me thinks.

Except for cornerbacks. With both starters being free agents after 2019, that seems to be a priority to develop.

Define "early".
One first, no secknd. Not a whole lot of early.

Early means with the first few picks they have, right now it means in the 1st and 3rd rounds but that is still subject to change.

Subject to change......results may vary.
I agree.
A trade down from 31 is very possible given the depth in certain positions.

Back to the FA subject. Are the Rams done or will they pull some magic (restructure, trade, release) for some OL/DL depth?

Agree, as the Vikings H/c says that is the position with the biggest learning curb on defense.
I will say The Rams do have a couple young CB’s with potential.

The Rams organization will always wait for opportunity to upgrade. I’m sure Kromer has an idea of the direction he wants to go.

I think a trade of position during the draft either way will be a way to fulfill a couple position.
The Rams biggest need is a OL & DL Player,especially after the resigning of Malcom Brown.

My guess is the Rams will land a potential OL future starter in the 3rd round and depth via the 7th round/UDFA pickups. With that said - are there any FA OL remaining that the Rams should pursue via a very team friendly contract?
