Rams Just Lost Gladstone

[Ramhusker]

This too shall pass.

 

[WestCoastRam]

The Rams have done pretty good with the draft with him as director of scouting

we'll see how they do this year

James Gladstone does all the work ?

Les Snead gets all the credit ?

Most of his work has already been done this year. If his subordinates don't step up than we should really start to feel it next year.

What is interesting about this getting insight on the Rams scouting department. It is large and they spend money on it and the results show. I read a week ago the Bengals have four full time scouts and no true GM and the results show.

 

[IowaRam]

Everything’s fine

isn't he the director of scouting from the Cleveland Browns ?

Rams off-season is never complete until some dude no one has ever mentioned or barely knows leaves and then income the posts of dismay and tragedy.

 

[TSFH Fan]

I guess he's ready to lead a multi-billion-dollar business:

The casual fan might not have a clue, but anyone who has paid close attention to Rams draft videos understand that this may be a significant loss.

 

[LARAMSinFeb.]

Stafford, Kupp okay but NOT GLADSTONE!

 

[Psycho_X]

I was really hoping they'd pass on him so we could get a couple more drafts from him. But I think this one hurts more than Holmes frankly. Either way, Snead knows how to pick talent to lead his scouting department so hopefully those waiting in the wings are ready to go.

 

[Mackeyser]

I’m shaking in my boots panicking over how we will survive this tragic loss.

Just like we didn’t survive the loss of Brad… and he was amazing also.

 

[99Balloons]

Can the Rams rehire the scout who jumped into the pool when they drafted Logan Bruss and make him Director of Scouting?

JK.

 

[Ramrasta]

Everybody relax. He was hired by the Jags which means he will be available to come back to us in 2 or 3 years.

 

[Neil039]

Well this likely means there is a big trade coming between the Rams and Jags ~ @Allen2McVay

Congrats to James, but it sucks for Les and the Rams. I guess Gladstone will raid some of the Rams scouts.

Lazy assumption.

Not only is Gladstone a loss in the scouting department as a big part of Les’s team, he’s likely to take a few of the Rams scouts with him, just before the draft, which sucks. This means Rams player intel will go along with them.

I don't believe scouts are allowed to change teams in the months leading-up to the Draft.

Could be wrong.

It's part of being a successful franchise. Brad Holmes was a loss. I'm sure Gladstone will be a loss. But we should have the infrastructure in place to keep on trucking.

 

[OldSchool]

It is what it is. Next man up in the front office.

 

[Ram Ts]

Definitely sucks.

I guess on the bright side, it shows the young up & coming talented scouts/etc. that this is the place to be and get opportunities to become a GM somewhere in the NFL. Similar to how McVay is a spring board for young talented coaches. Minority, young kid, whatever - doesn’t matter. What matters is being a part of this organization. At least I hope.

 

[SteezyEndo]

Its all a business, but this is dirty business. Nothing is original. Its all about greed at the end of the day. McVay will find someone, but they would have to be equally or better than what Gladstone offered.
