SEC /Big Ten Title games

[PhillyRam]

Thought I would start a thread on these two big games today. Can discuss numerous potential Rams draft picks, especially the main two QBs, Simpson & Mendoza.

 

[OldSchool]

Lots of guys from these going to be playing on Sundays soon. Half a dozen or more players on each team I'd love to have.

 

[Memento]

I'll be honest - and this is going to be a very unpopular opinion: I want Elijah Sarratt (WR, Indiana) much more than I do Fernando Mendoza. The more I watch of Sarratt and how he's done with various quarterbacks, his size, his technical route-running, his hands...he reminds me of another prime-Kupp out there, but on the outside and even more athletic. I think he'd be well worth our late first, if my number one wideout choice (Chris Brazzell II, Tennessee) is taken before that.

If Simpson gets drafted by us and sits behind #9 for a year, he will be a good QB. If he’s drafted by someone like the Browns or Raiders - he will be another Danny Dimes or Darnold. Which means we can pick him up in 2029.

 

[PhillyRam]

I wonder if these QBs and their agents, take into consideration that Sean McVay might be looking for his future QB, and he has a top ten pick?

Also, does word get out via scouts etc... to any of these QBs that they are Rams targets, potentially influencing their decision as to whether to come out, or stay in school?

 

[PhillyRam]

BTW, a rough day today might make Simpson's decision to as to whether to stay in school or come out, a lot easier for him. They have a young offense and he could be the #1 pick next year vs maybe dropping this year, if he comes out after a less then stellar post season.

 

[PhillyRam]

CB Dylan Everett, the kid who got the INT, he is a guy to get familiar with. I have seen him listed as a mid to late round pick. He has good size.

Simpson, not looking too good so far

 

[OldSchool]

We got us a blow out going on. Alabama just doesn't have the team this year.

 

[Ramhusker]

DOGS!

 

[Ramhusker]

And Go Indiana! Rams future QB maybe.

 

[Flatlyner]

Yikes Simpson is not playing well. Not sure there has been a single good play by him.

 

[OldSchool]

No QB is going to look good behind this OL

 

[PhillyRam]

Simpson, not looking too good so far

Yeah, I don't see the need to make a significant trade up for him. Not trying to overreact to this game, but he is not the biggest guy and I think they have two years to find a QB. I am not sure I would put a ton of draft capital in him.

If he is there at 9, then sure, if he checks out mentally etc...

Mendoza at least has prototypical size. He might be the one guy (assuming Moore stays) worth spending multiple picks on.

Players will lose their eligibility if they have contact with professional teams.
So I say absolutely not.
Not to mention that these guys have to declare mid January so McVay and Snead surely will be focusing elsewhere at that time

 

[OldSchool]

Mendoza didn't help him self on that sack.

 

[rdlkgliders]

IU can't leave points on the field like they are, Ohio St is way too good

 

[rdlkgliders]

Mendoza didn't help him self on that sack.

I was shocked he managed to almost get back to the LOS. Their O Line is in deep against these guys

 

[Memphis Ram]

Gee. For all the love Arvell Reese gets I can't recall a mention of his name since the opening.

 

[rdlkgliders]

IU going to have to do something with their protections.
