To date, I'm leaning towards Warren McClendon and someone getting a franchise tag next offseason.

If you are right then a fire should be lit under the asses of every other OL, especially Avila.
Edit:
Actually not a bad idea

I got the impression from Nate's article that Rams might want to see a healthier version of Avila and a bit more consistency in his blocking (even though he's been doing it at a high level). I think "take the next step" was mentioned so I could see them waiting on any work on him or perhaps let him go if Dotson is locked up.
I voted Nacua, but McClendon is a sneaky one that could be done if he accepts a little less, since he only has about 8 games as a starter under his belt. So considering it's a smaller deal than Nacua, I could see them getting it out of the way. This could be especially true since with no #1 pick next year its likley no high level OT is coming into the building via the draft.
My vote is for The Conductor. I love Nacua, Avila, McClendon, and Dotson, but Kobie Turner is more important to that defense than people think.
Another sneaky signing that's not on the list might just be Colby Parkinson.

Yeah, I could see that while they can still get him on the cheap (relatively) and with Hav retired.

Wait, is this who we THINK will get the next extension or who we want to get it? I read the poll as who we think. I expect Dotson's contract to be a more straighforward negotiation than Turner with Turner and Rams probably spending more time negotiating on the important second contract and Turner's chance to earn some REAL money now.

You'd think CJ Daniels had their daughter being held in a basement somewhere...
Dotson won't be cheap. But they gotta extend him. I have a feeling McClendon's gonna have a decent to good year. Today he would be cheaper to extend than next offseason. Puka's a no brainer but after the off field stuff I think they're gonna wait a little longer. They have the franchise tag available if they need it. Kobie's another they will need if they want to maintain an upper tier defensive line. Young too. But its possible Stewart could fill those shoes nicely. That is one to keep an eye on.
Freaking REALLY?? Last year you were saying The Rams were going to CUT him for CAP SPACE after June 1 ??? Anyways - not SO sure ?
My thoughts are having the younger version ? Davies Allen is in that category as well then.We’ll see what 13 personnel will look like.
When AD unretires, the Rams will announce 2-3 new deals. McClendon should be a nice, shorter-term deal that he and the Rams will both benefit from. My boy The Conductor, would be included.
