It was good to get down here and talk Rams football and life with @VeteranRamFan and @bubbaramfan.
My biggest take away from today is the Defense. Ramsey wasn't out there but they still looked very good. Now the grain of salt, Wolford got the 1st team reps, I'm confident Stafford will make the O better than Wolford did today. IMO the Rams should start looking a bit more seriously into QB2. Wolford isn't terrible, but I think an upgrade can be found.
Cam Akers looks like he isn't thinking about his achilles. Nifty feet in traffic, a crack is enough for him to get at least 3 or 4 yards.
Atwell had a good practice, made some nice catches and caught some punts. Need to see him return punts in game action to determine if he can beat out Powell on PR.
T Lewis looked good and appeared confident in his knee, no brace. He is a 3 down OLB, he can drop into coverage and break a TEs ribs. He can rush the passer and he can hold the edge and force the run out of bounds or cutback into BWags.
As soon as I started looking for BWags, he showed up. Making several plays in the backfield and a pick six with AD clearing him a path to the endzone. He is going to take this D to the next level!
Jacob Harris is a big dude, a redzone weapon at the least. Harris and Benny Sko need to maximize their opportunities while Van is not out there.
The team spent a lot of time doing 11 on 11. Probably over an hr and a half.
Kupp made some nice catches as expected and had 1 drop that I saw. Didn't focus much on Kupp since Stafford wasn't in on team drills.
ARob1 is possibly the biggest FA steal of this off-season. The Rams got him cheap for what he adds to the O.
Rochelle looked good when I watched him.
I'm sure @bubbaramfan will cover the OL in his report. My only input about the OL is that as the Rams have done since McVay was hired, lots of moving guys around in different positions and combinations.
This team gets it! The players protect each other but still get some good contact, usually ending with the players still on their feet, not on the ground.
The TC setup has evolved over the last 7 camps. Loved the seating for ADA.
Hope the spacing made this easier to read as it seems a bit long on my phone.
