Sony Michel signed

[tempests]

Michel had two carries in the Super Bowl, one for 3 yards (from the 28 yard line) and one for -1 yards (from the 42).

oldnotdead is sort of right, just has the Super Bowls and teams mixed up.

Michel had a 26 yard run from his team's 5 to help ice the game. Of course, he was a Patriot then, in Super Bowl 53, playing against us.

Awesome move

I'm not overly excited about Sony coming back. I guess as insurance on the cheap he is a good signing. He should have fresh legs. I'm hoping the Rams don't need to give him a lot of PT.

He's a pretty good insurance policy

Backs who can block and catch are good with me and Sean.

Interesting, Z. Evans not instilling Rams brass with a lot of confidence?

I view the Z. Evans pick as a "6th round flier."

I LOVE that the Rams put such a high priority on drafting "high character, high effort, high football IQ" guys. Rams top 3 picks (Avila, Young, and Turner) are great examples of this.

But in the 6th round, the Rams decided to go "low risk high reward" with Z Evans. He's got a lot of natural talent, but he's got a history of problems with maturity and commitment, not to mention problems with fumbling and staying healthy.

So I think the Rams would be crazy to "have a lot of confidence" in Evans at this point. Evans has to play for at least a full year to demonstrate he knows how to be a pro.

I'd be happy if Evans makes the final 53, but it also wouldn't surprise me if he were a practice squad guy or were cut.

Adding some vets to fill a leadership void in some rooms and also just add some veteran depth.

This is what clearing cap space was about. Not that this is a big ticket cost, but still a little more than what the 51st roster spot costs. I wouldn't be surprised if they add a vet to either the OL and or the DL and maybe an edge as well.

Zack is a prime candidate for one of those redshirt type years we've used.

Interesting. I don't think he takes the spot of the three young guns, but it's a nice insurance signing.

Thank fucking God. One move that has instantly solved the depth issue for what happens if Akers can't go. I am a happy fan to see this.

Welcome back Sony you fucking stud you. Glad to have you back onboard.

totally agree. This warmed the cockles of my heart.....

Seriously? You don't find this exciting? What else is going on in Louisville besides rooting for the Bats?

Love his blocking and pass protection but really not excited about his 2.9 yards per carry. He's on his 4th team in 4 years for a reason. Love the Bats baseball reference how are you familiar with them?

 

[Elmgrovegnome]

He may not be great but he’s a high character type who can be a good example for the young runningbacks. He also pass protects and knows how to fall forward
