Hubert Humphrey would have been a better pick than TuTu Atwell.Thread about US Presidents: “what do you think about Hubert Humphrey?” Response: “I don’t know, but let me tell you about Creed Humphrey.”
Ok, so you participate in what you want, but I should just but out, since I disagree with you. Got it.I’ll act accordingly like how I want to act and participate with what im in interested in. You have zero say. Period. At this point IDGAF what you think.
Again if you don’t like it, don’t comment on it. It’s not rocket science. In todays word people feel obligated to respond if they are offended by something. (And if you do respond expect a potential different opinion on the matter) Once again hito, if you don’t like a topic or subject ignore it and don’t respond. Incredibly simple.
Yes it's me saying someone should butt out since they disagree.Ok, so you participate in what you want, but I should just but out, since I disagree with you. Got it.
I didn't like the Tutu pick either, and was really hoping for a Center. I just don't feel the need to keep telling everybody, at every opportunity. It is in the past, and I have let it go.
I understanding not liking the pick, but continuing to cry about it, at every opportunity, 2 seasons later is a little much. Honestly, not trying to be a dick here, but what is the point of constantly bringing it up?
If you want to act like it is a running joke, then fine, whatever (Post #21 sure didn't sound like it is a running joke). It just get old and predictable. Believe me, if there is a 'We should have drafted Creed H. thread, I will stay out of it, LOL. Unfortunately, it makes it's way into a lot of threads.
Its not like we drafted Kupp or anything.WR isnt great either....
From last year we lost some great to solid starters... some big names also.
Woods
Whitworth
Vaughn Miller
Odell Beckham JR
D.Williams
Corbett
I just look at this team.. especially on the offensive side and see a lack of play makers.
People lament the offensive decline for good reason.. but back in the day we had Gurley, Higbee/Everett, Woods, Kupp, Cook and some others... our offensive personnel is so depleted.
Agree.The Rams aren't even in the top 5 for man games lost this season.. that surprised me.
But having so many injuries concentrated in the offensive line has really distorted everything, imo.
So, what are we really talking about?
Oh.. (Creed Humphrey).. that's what this thread really comes down to.
If they had drafted Humphrey, and he took-over at Center last season, I doubt that would have re-signed Allen, who was a free agent.What if's aren't usually a subject I spend much time on, but it doesn't bother me to hear discussion on what a Creed Humphrey acquisition might have made for our OL. Forget Atwell for a moment, I think most here would agree that Creed is a step up from Brian Allen, so what becomes of Allen if he's bumped out of his starting Center role ? At Michigan St., Brian Allen played LG for only one game less than he played Center, so could he have bumped Edwards at LG while Edwards then moves into a lead swing OT/OG role ? The trickle down effect for drafting Humphrey could have had a very significant result for our OL depth as a whole. Beating a dead horse surely isn't going to get us anywhere, but we should also accept that fans sometimes have a pretty good grasp of what's going on, and team front office's aren't infallible. jmo.
And if Humphrey got injured... like multiple Rams olinemen.. it would've meant... what?If they had drafted Humphrey, and he took-over at Center last season, I doubt that would have re-signed Allen, who was a free agent.

I have made this exact point more than half-a-dozen times over the past 7-10 days, including above to you.And that's the real discussion point, to me. We're not talking about the players the Rams did or didn't draft impacting the line right now.. we're talking about all the injuries.
A rash of injuries to an O-Line is just very, very tough to overcome ...
Gotcha.I have made this exact point more than half-a-dozen times over the past 7-10 days, including above to you.
In my other response (to River), I was simply addressing his comment about Allen and Humphrey on the same roster.
oh never realized he was on the team - thanks for pointing that out.Its not like we drafted Kupp or anything.
Sorry, haven't been offended yet. LOL. Not going to continue a pointless back and forth. Have a great day.Yes it's me saying someone should butt out since they disagree.
You gaslight and and get offended when someone responds to your BS.
