Just read a rumor that the Rams plan on switching Ray Ray Armstrong from Saftey to LB with the Rams supposedly because of his size (approximately 230lbs). Could be interesting!

That might be a fantastic idea. He's big, likes to hit, isn't showing a ton of Safety speed at the moment. And isn't he weighing 230lbs right now? Drafting TJ McDonald and picking up Cody Davis as an UDFA, we might not be as thin at the Safety position as many think, including me for that matter. I think I like it.

He is.

Snead said it today in his interview with 101. It's posted in another thread.

Interesting move. I think this could turn out wonderfully. There is little risk(he's a UDFA) and a ton of upside(getting a LB with a little pop that can cover). He'll need to learn to wade through the OLine and make plays against the run. He'll need to sharpen his instincts too. He could be a nice sub-package option too
