That's good work. Pretty handy to have all that in one place ... thanks.

Is that your site?

Nice!

I like that layout.

Simple. Clear.

I knew Jackson was the longest tendered Ram but by 4 years? Man does that highlight the clusterfuck of the late Martz/Linny years

That's pretty cool, it also makes it pretty easy to see what the issue was. The drafts were weak, no free agents...

 

[RamFan503]

Very nice. Kinda mind boggling to look at too.

It really shows how important drafting is. Teams that go the free agent route are rarely successful.

Surprised at Philly, thought they had more significant FAs. Just 7 big names.

But they still are The Dream Team...

Great post. Man, we don't have anyone on our roster from 2005-7 and only one before that (SJax). That's why we were so terrible for so long.

Makes sense when you see it broken down!

Actually, he's finally learning. All those experiments with veterans wasn't working. Now he's doing it the right way. It takes a mix of those players to become successful. Now he's got Griffin, Cousins, Alfred Morris, Fred Davis, Trent Williams, Ryan Kerrigan, Bryan Orakpo, Leonard Hankerson ... all guys they drafted who are playing at high levels. Our drafts, on the other hand, blew chunks for years and years and years. It's gonna take us some time to get our rooks up to that level, but I know it's gonna happen. Now if we can just mix a veteran FA receiver like Santana Moss or Garcon into the mix, we'd be in good shape.

Yep, and I was going to post almost exactly what you did but got stuck on a quick conf. call. The Cerrato/Snyder spending spree is what set that franchise back 15 years. I am pretty sure they are STILL paying Deion Sanders (not to mention Fat Albert)!! Bruce Allen comes in and boom, now you see him and Shanahan building through the draft. They have definitely had some solid drafts of late, and you see that translating to W's on the field.
