I read somewhere he doesn't have arm strength ? Wtf. Short and no arm strength. Idk. I guess we will find out.
I believe you, and I'm sure there are some negative articles but you may want to research a little bit.

Most reports and comments suggest an above-average NFL arm.
 
McVay doesn’t look happy at all. Maybe I am reading too much into his facial expression and body language.
I would think that there was a ton of long periods of action lack of sleep ongoing before this conclusion of selection of Ty .

McVay runs hot most of the time when tasks need to be accomplished .

I saw a HC that was worn down and now feeling calm comforted and at ease.

Mission accomplished!

Rams have a great QB room going into Training Camp ! I feel great about it. Only a few teams can come close to the Rams QB room!

McVay has more than enough power in this organization to veto that sort of move if he's not on board with it.
I agree that McVay and Snead collaborate all picks. I also agree that he signed off on the pick, but in the presser it is totally obvious something is off with McVay and considering the subject of the news conference it seems likely Snead and him went a few rounds over this pick and he didn't win. Or maybe his conversation with Stafford went about as well as you could Imagine and now there are new issues to discuss over the extension. Whatever it is, McVay is looked subdued.

He gave Arizona

Jeremiyah Love, RB, Notre Dame​

Grade: D

I stopped reading after that! He’s a moron if he thinks that is a bad pick :-)

This was the worst pick of the first round by far to me. Drafting a RB with the third pick when you have holes at literally every other position is organizational malpractice and I can only assume the owner wanted the RB over a defensive player or OL.
 
Everyone banging on about McVay looking pissed off in the press conference………..maybe his missus didn’t put out the night before and he’s got the hump.
 
I too, was thinking the Rams would choose (almost) anyone other than TS at 13. We're "all in" this year ..... said nobody in the FO.
Clearly the guys who are paid to make these decisions, and who brought this team within a few plays of the Super Bowl are smarter than me and everyone else here who thinks that we blew this pick. :zipper: :ROFLMAO:
If the Rams brass believes that Simpson is their guy, I'm giving them the benefit with this pick. What do I ACTUALLY know about player evaluations, other than what I read from guys like Kiper, Reid, DJ and the rest of the people who aren't actually working that gig with an NFL franchise?
Can't wait to see who the next picks turn out to be today and tomorrow.
THEN, after
that fiasco is complete ...... I can join in and bitch about what a bunch of bufoons we have in the Rams front office.
 
The Rams say he will compete with Bennett for number two? what the hell? there was a good edge rusher available and several receivers who could start year one. They threw this pick away. But they often waste their best pick. I do not get it.
I get the approach, but I don't agree with it. Gonna be awhile before we truly know if this pick was as shitty as I think it was or as smart as some others think. Have no choice but to root for Simpson to be successful
 
You are so right, brother

These clowns have no idea! They are paid to spout nonsense and get away with it

This particular moron gave Arizona a D for taking Love

That’s pretty generous, I would’ve given it an F. They have holes *everywhere*.

Last 4 RB taken top 3: Ronnie Brown, Reggie Bush, Saquon Barkley, and Trent Richardson.

Saquon is truly the only one of those worthy of a first round pick, but even HE wasn’t good enough to overcome how bad the Giants were. They eventually let him walk in free agency.
 
in the GDT, you frequently wave the white flag and say the Rams are doomed and dump on our team. But this take is beyond ridiculous.

So after watching thousands of hours of film and investing a first round pick and millions of dollars and several years of his coaching future... and you think McVay's not "bought in"?

McVay was subdued at the press conference because he wanted to be respectful about drafting Stafford's replacement. But to conclude that McVay isn't "bought in" with Simpson is just... whatever. A mind bogglingly horrible take.
People are COMPLETELY missing the fact that McVay was tempered out of complete respect to Stafford.

On another note, I bet Staff is gonna love having this kid around. And this does nothing to shorten the career of Matt. He can play here or elsewhere. People forget he was nearly a Raider last year? And it was done completely above board and with all Maximum respect from both parties.
