Rams Sign former FSU CB Greg Reid

[jrry32]

So, since we signed him, do we still draft a CB early or grab a mid and late round CB instead? If he works out, seems like he fills our hole at nickle.

I'd still draft one highly(first 3 rounds). Don't know what he'll offer.

So what did he do between the arrest and being thrown off the team that caused him to be thrown off the team?

How in the heck does anyone get thrown off the FSU team

For many of the same reasons Janoris was dismissed from Florida.

LOL Yama!

I would think that with last years development of S.Bailey and Matt Daniels not being able to stay healthy that Reid will find plenty of opportunities to make a dent on special teams initially. I dont see Bailey being forced to prove himself on ST anymore. He worked hard there and earned his way into the WR rotation.

In other words, i dont see this signing changing much in terms of draft day needs in our secondary. Reid has alot to prove.

LOL Yama!

All this guy is a early UDFA signing. At his peak a couple years ago before he tore his ACL he was at best a late round pick or more likely a UDFA. He's too small to play safety, and is even small for a nickle.
Let him come to camp and compete. You never know with a year on the PS he might be ready. I just don't see him pushing Tru or JJ day one of camp.

I knew that's what you meant Yama.

I like to see these guys make it. Makes a good story. But kinda long odds for him.
At the price CB's are going this off season, unless the Rams out bid 3 other teams at about 2 mil. per season I'm not going to get excited.

 

[Alan]

Yep, this is a guy that nobody else wanted. I'll wait until later to get excited. :barefoot:

Might as well get excited now...because if you're right, there won't be time to get excited later.

 

[laramsoriginal]

Lol at that signing.

I wonder if Snisher is trolling the fanbase/media who've been calling for a big splash in FA.

jrry32 in a hurry:

It's always a tough choice between instant gratification and being pleasantly surprised. At my age I'm happy with whatever I can get.

Nah, don't want to derail this thread any further. Watch for it soon on the 'Song of the Day' thread though. You inspired it.

This is the epitome of low risk with high reward potential. If this guy returns to form he is a steal. Way to go rams.
