[Flatlyner]

Schrager is still the worst pick, by a margin. Would not love C.Davis pick either. Hell even nutty MJD made a good pick for us.

 

[CGI_Ram]

Laitu Latu appears the consensus.

 

[Noregar]

Schrager is still the worst pick, by a margin.

He is just doing some dirty work for his buddy Sean by putting up a smoke screen.

 

[dieterbrock]

Looks like it will be Bowers then

 

[I like Rams]

Looks like it will be Bowers then

If not an edge, that's who I want. Depending on compensation to move up that is...

 

[12intheBox]

I want to change my answer - I'm following @Memphis Ram and agree that the signs point to a trade up for Troy Fautanu. If we pick at 19 - then its Verse.

It's annoying because he's pretty well informed, hope he's way off base there though

 

[AvengerRam]

Laitu Latu appears the consensus.

I’d be very happy if he’s the pick, but I think he’s going to be gone before #19.

Man, I want to like him but I can’t. I can’t get past he was medically retired for neck injury, and then returned.

Medicals might clear him, but that’s a neck. That’s a young man. I just can’t gamble an issue like that just goes away playing a contact sport, regardless the surgery he had.

I have faith in McSnead ... by and large. Their picks have been impressive in many cases. But every once in a while there is a Tutu (when everyone knew that Creed Humphrey should have been the pick) or Bruss (when jumping in the pool may have been appropriate, but they forgot the weighted bag the scout should have been tied within).

With that said, I hope that most of what we're hearing on OT is a smokescreen, and that we are looking at edge and DL. I know there are good arguments for OL, but I really just want to take advantage of the "elite" Stafford - and we don't know how long we will have him. The only OT that could start and run away with the job at LT is Joe Alt. If he's available, go get him. It would be like when they moved up for Pace prior to the greatest show days.

My pick is Verse, Thomas was a hypothetical that McVay could want a weapon. My choice has been Verse for a while now.

You didn't get mine. Move up for Joe Alt, Notre Dame.

Old School going all wishy washy! Sorry Thomas, but hit the bricks!

Fair enough. Verse it is!

 

[RamBall]

I trust McSnead, they have done pretty solid at the draft. The only negative would be that they may have reached on some of their early rd picks. McVay hasnt even had a 1st rounder to draft with since being a HC. They did trade a few away for solid players though.

 

[Faceplant]

Since I haven't made a prediction yet, my prediction is that the Rams will end up selecting someone that no one has yet predicted. Predictably.

 

[gogoat1]

When is the draft ?
Asking for a friend.

Pretty sure nobody predicted Avila last year.

It's a little easier to predict with first round picks though because the draft pool is smaller. If not even one person predicts who we end up picking, I would be a bit shocked.
