Am I the only one that finds it disturbing that Peter King knew that the Rams had Gurley at the top of their board.......a week before the draft?
I don't think he did. Fisher/Snead had that on a need to know basis. When Gurley was there at 10, they put his name back on top.

Interesting. Usually when a back is so dominant the line is a big help. Gurley could possibly be even better if the Rams run blocking Oline pans out like they think it will.

I guess then if Gurley is successful we may see Chubb go top 5 next season.

The thing with Gurley is that with all that strength, speed, and quickness comes tremendous balance. He simply doesn't go down easy---ya have to really wrap him up and take him down because the one arm tackle attempts and wild hits won't get it done most of the time.
