Rams Trade Ben Skowronek to Houston

[AvengerRam]

Seems like a "release him now to give him a chance to catch on elsewhere" kind of move.

 

[TheTackle]

He did great for a 7th round pick. I am surprised we released him before camp. I wish him nothing but the best and perhaps the chance to crack a three receiver set elsewhere

..and -- he leaves with a ring.
Maybe not what we hoped for - but not bad for a last round pick!

 

[OldSchool]

Called it during the draft still sad to see him go.

 

[El Chapo Jr]

Thanks Skow! You played your role, played for the most fuckin awesome franchise ever, got a SB ring, made a lil cash, and got an up close view at Veronica's fine ass. I call that a huge win for a 7th rounder!

 

[Ramhusker]

Dude might not even need to move. He may land with the Chargers. Good luck Sko!

 

[blackbart]

I understand this from a football/roster building standpoint … but I hate it because I just liked Benny Skow. And if you don’t like Benny Skow, you are a communist heathen who hates America and puppy dogs.

Good luck Ben, please just don’t go to an NFC west team.

What 13 said!

Thanks, Benny

isn’t there video of him blowing up one of the noners?

Always figured he'd be the team's 50/50 jump ball specialist when he was drafted. Seems like they threw him a few his rookie season and never went back to him.

Oh well. Hopefully TEs Allen and Parkinson can be used in that capacity some.

Im sure Snead and McVay both really appreciate Ben Snow.
But, its a cut throat business.
They drafted his replacement (and a better WR prospect) in Whittington.
His ST abilities will land him a job somewhere.
He is a good bottom of the depth chart WR.
That last spot is between Johnson, Smith and Stoops.
Johnson having the edge and Stoops being my favorite sleeper.
Interesting development.

 

[Soul Surfer]

Wow. Oh well.. he never panned out the way I thought he would.

He reminded me of Snead/McVay's Gerald Everett pick.
Trying to force some kind of tight end/WR hybrid into the scheme.

Sort of the same reason they took Tutu Atwell after failing with that other little dude.

Basically ego refused the idea that they could fail with an idea.

I think we use a lot more 12 personnel this year than in the past. Two TE's two WRs, and run the damn ball.

I think Parkinson might be a much bigger addition than what many realize.

This drops us from 90 players to 89 ... do you think they have someone in mind for the 90th spot?

[baconandbread]

Can a mod please update the title

7th / 6th rounder swap?

Maybe in 2026; we don't have a seventh in 2025.

For a seventh-round pick to do what he's done is outstanding. He's a hard worker, smart, good at special teams, can play HB a bit. Just a solid player, but I'm not surprised they want to give Whittington and the younger receivers a chance over him.

Anyway, good luck to Skow in Houston.

Have we got our 2025 second rounder back?

 

[AvengerRam]

Have we got our 2025 second rounder back?

Yes... and David G-d Damned Putney because we need a punt returner and just because we feel like it!
