True. Not a move that worked out. Wasn't happy about it at the time it was signed.
I was however excited about the Allen Robinson signing. Did not see that flop falling.

The good news is that these misses are few compared to a lot of other teams and
without doubt far fewer than most of our Ram FO's of the past.

I may not remember as far back as some on ROD, but IMHO, this is the absolute best
Rams organization, as a whole, from the owner to the towel guy that I can recollect.

There are still nights I wake in cold sweat, flinging my arms uncontrollably and screaming
out names such as John Shaw and some Zygmunt guy.:bigcry:
I liked your post, but I have to say that I LIKED the Noteboom signing at the time and HATED the robinson signing.

I thought Noteboom had played well enough to get this shot and LTs are hard to come by. He didn’t work out.

What upset me the most about the robinson signing was he was supposed to be an upgrade over Woods. Blasphemy.
The Rams wanted to dump robinson so badly, they paid $10 mil of the $15 mil robinson made that year as a steeler. The Rams only owed him $5, but hey split his $10mil salary with the Steelers just to get rid of him!

Either way, we as fans get it wrong just as the teams do, but you’re right about one thing—this is absolutely the best the Rams have been organizationally in my lifetime.

Think about this: the Rams have made the playoffs the last 2 years despite being in the middle of the 3rd rebuild in the McVay era. With the release of Kupp, only Higbee and Havenstein remain as having been on the roster for both SBs under McVay. Havs is the only one who played in both.
…and we’re going back again this year!

I liked both signings at the time.

Noteboom showed no signs that he would be so brittle every single time he stepped on the field. He played well backing up Whit.

Arob, I thought, was a victim of horrible qb play. Turned out he was just horrible.

At least the Rams admit to their mistakes and make moves accordingly. I understood their need to keep noteboom around but last season was diabolical for him and the Rams. His time had come.

Let me start by saying I enjoyed your reply.
The reason I disliked the boom signing was he had yet to show he could stay on the field.
I just didn't see putting that kind of money on a big question mark in reliability.

LOL. I hear you bro. I liked Woods as well.
and you were right , that contract dump? was one ginormous horse pill. Geez

I love the Adams signing and I love the Poona addition.

With the second year jump that a lot of rookies make our dline is gonna be crazy.
I think if Verse can learn to be more in control on his closure to the QB...?
12 to 16 sacks could be easily done.
It just seemed he missed so many sack opportunities because he was coming off that
bull rush off balanced.

I would love to see us add ILB Eric Kendricks to go with Omar. Kendricks is 33, but
was still playing very good football. 1 yr deal on the cheap. Mentor for Omar.
Thoughts?

No Doubt!
