I don’t hate Lake, he just doesn’t excite me as a safety. I’ve seen him make plays though.

Right?!
The core four could very well end up being Tre White, Darious Williams, Kamren Curl and Kamren Kinchens. All new this year.

As has already been mentioned, Kinchens was an almost universal first-round pick in mock drafts a couple of months ago. He has fallen during the draft process, probably due to his measurables not being elite, but the Rams have repeatedly shown that they look at a player’s intangibles and in-game awareness more than just their numbers.
This could prove to be an absolute steal.

A platoon of Robinson and Atwell isn't the worst thing in the world at X. But Atwell works best from the F. Oddly, if something happens to Kupp, he'll jump right in. It'll just look a little different, like first quarter of last season.

Here is another great report on him. Another high character player who plays a lot faster that his 40 time. I agree he is a steal and will probably be an impact starter. Not bad for pick 99. Go Rams
Great draft so far I just wish we had more picks! Les trade away some more 2025s by all means if you keep going like this
“Kinchens almost always was the safety to the field in split safety coverages and the post safety in single coverages. There were snaps in which he lined up over the slot, depending on the offensive formation. In Miami’s man coverage concepts, Kinchens matched up to both TE and running backs. All three interceptions versus Georgia Tech in 2022 came as the post safety”

Well said. I looked at every teams draft and ours is easily one of the best! All four are impact players
How can we get some more picks? Waiting until pick 154 will be painful! Fuck them 2025 picks Les

I don't mean to be a downer but . . .
If you look at the senior Bowl practices where one DB covers one WR man to man, he had a real hard time staying with any receiver he was to guard. I can't see him covering Kittle, LaPorta in the conference championship game or Kelce in the Super Bowl.
Also, he was targeted 34 times this year in games - 28 of those were completed (82%) for 479 yards and 4 TDs. The passer rating against his coverage was 118.4.
He was a lot better last year.
He chose not to run the shuttle or 3cone at the combine or his pro day.
I would guess because he knew it would be slow?
He ran 40 at 4.62, fifth from the bottom of his class.
I hope he played this year through an injury.
If he wasn't hurt this year, tape and numbers point to him not being able to cover NFL receivers.
I do not understand not trading up 1 or 2 spots and getting the best LB in the draft - Payton Wilson.
I know there are questions about his ACL, but that guy flies all over the field. He is a game changer.
If he lasts for 3/4 years, it would be worth it.
There were so many other players better than Kitchens available.
I don't understand this pick.

Everyone is entitled to their view, of course, but do you honestly believe that the Rams are oblivious to all the issues you raise?
They will have done their due diligence and decided that Kinchens is worth the pick. There’s a chance that he may not work out, but that can happen to anyone.
In McSnead we trust.

These are all good points. He did suffer a big injury in 2023 and was carted off the field but I am not sure that affected his measurables. Agree on Payton but if they liked him more they would have traded above the Steelers as any fool and his mother could see they would almost certainly pick him
