Are the Rams down to 80? Only four names, TE Markway dropped today.

Not much in the way of quality RB's being cut today, so it's likely going to be a trade or post August 31 cut before we make a move or moves at the position. jmo.

Nobody around answers hard good questions like that bubbaramfan you should know that!:quiet:

Whoever does will not be throwing the ball but handing it off.
Maybe the plan is showcase and trade?
Idk.

He's my #2 FWIW.
Your backup should be a guy who can scramble IMO. Wolford is decent in that regard, but Perks is better at it.

As I understand it, Hecker doesn't count because he's still in covid protocol. He's our 5th "off the roster" guy but we get to bring him back once he clears the protocol. Basically buying us time on the last cut.

  • QB Devlin Hodges
  • RB Raymond Calais*
  • OT Ryan Pope
  • TE Kyle Markway
  • DE Maximilian Roberts

  • DB Paris Ford
  • DB Dayan Lake

No surprises there really.Raymond Calais the only real questionable one.
He had a nice PR.The Rams RB situation is a little iffy.I would have thought maybe he would have lasted a little longer,but this actually gives him a chance at possibly finding a new home before 53?

With Calais out of the picture this year the Rams need a returner. The most logical would be Landen Akers or JJ Koski. Aker's speed will appeal to DeCamillis. If they IR Benny Sko that opens a spot for Akers but it would be at the expense of T. Jack. That said, Akers could potentially have more upsides overall plus he would be the returner this year. So do the Rams carry 7 WRs? Not sure they can afford to. They will have to hope Koski and T. Jack can clear waivers.

Thanks. Saw that right after I posted.
That makes more sense. He flashed & now with HENDO reported about an injury. I think the number 2 RB might need to be preserved.

Henderson whacked his thumb, not really worried about it. They are all going to get banged up, it’s the nature of the game. He’s back in practice getting reps.

Funk and Jones looked better. I don’t see the complaints about pass pro, they are rookies. They get better with more reps and playing with the 1’s will help.

So who got cut to make room for Sony Michel? Assuming they'll have to do that to make it official but maybe they don't have to until he officially passes his physical which I'd think would be later today.

Gervase, Harris, Rozeboom, Anderson, or Hall, take your pick. There's plenty more on our roster who won't be added to the practice squad.

I don't envy this staff having to make the choices... especially on the last 10 guys... some of them are gonna be really pick-em choices...

Saw X Jones interview & when Raymond Calais went down he felt bad.Then again he took advantage of those Reps.
Mcvay is risk vs reward with this RB group. To say The Rams aren’t looking to get better & willing to make a move for a RB would be silly on my part.I’ve always been a big fan of the preseason.
I remember Fisher trying to watch out for players health.Spags I believe brought in Reggie Scott.There is a lot of communication that goes into The Rams Franchise.Kevin Demoff is the biggest Rams Fan.Just know he has his own timeout room at SOFI is funny.
Thanks for the 411. Heard McVays interview saying it was important to have him at practice. I think he might have a cast on it?(thumb?)Personnaly I’m just waiting for sept. 12 with the RB’s. Lossing Cam Akers for the season is a big blow.
Then you think about HEndo’s NFL career.Add those rookies (x. Jones 2nd).The thing I’m concerned about is the small size of the group.we’ll see how it plays out.
This Jake Funk is actually one of my favorite draft picks of all time.Truth this whole draft class,because of the talent,character,& how The Rams scouts found such value across the board.

Freaking this was in the making for a while.Heard the rumor.Knew it was in place when a certain date & time came together.Saw your post & checked out the news barely.
This is what the Doctor had ordered.
Sony is a Georgia guy off hand. Now adding the prices.
He played with or came for Todd Gurley.He was The Main reason Imo. The Pats won the SuperBowl against The Rams.He got hot at the right time. Matthew Stafford is a Georgia guy so there is a lot to like about this trade. Not for what The Rams are giving up ? The thing I believe might be the reason I’ve kept this inside & not make a prediction is it made so much sense.He is that bigger RB I’ve been saying need.
—Watched the Redskin vs Pats game twice ? What I noticed & there was talk about The Rams interest? What I knew was that the Pats were deep at RB.Then they kicked the crap out of Philly ? Whoever the score was like 45-0. That score was one I was totally happy about,but did not want to see the box score.
I had Sony on my Fantasy Football team 2 years ago with a high draft pick. Just the fact all the Star have aligned amazes me.NE sort of owes The Rams this player in a sense.I’m not saying The Rams or getting him for free. Just doing Football business together for both teams.
—Les Snead & The Rams Organization is pretty awesome. Have to add Floyd to the Ram player he may be closest to ? Imo
