I’m inclined to agree, Castamere.
If either Long or Rochell can effectively replace Hill then I think this secondary is in fine shape. Maybe better than last year, tbh.
Would leave Fuller/Burgess at Safety and Rapp free to move all over the place at Morris’ discretion with some nice depth at Safety.
Next year we probably lose DW, unfortunately, but Rochell was drafted to replace him, I think as a boundary CB. Probably gonna need to draft a nickel CB next year unless a gem is already on the roster that we don’t yet know about. Snead has been known to constantly keep his CB pipeline full via low draft picks and UDFA’s.
Yeah - Tru Johnson getting FRANCHISED Twice & Joyner once.
I’d say getting Comp picks for McCloud,Johnson & Joyner helped.
Rapp- Long & Scott & trading for RAMsey & developing Williams & Hill
Burgess & Fuller plus adding UDRFA’s
Hill will be bring a Comp Pick.
Les Snead & Demoff had failed with the DB’s before Sean Mcvay in my opinion. JJ21 I think brought a comp pick as well. — Mo Alexander was released & Joyner moved to FS.EJ was a nice late draft pick from Mizzu.
I think Rochelle was a nice value pick
& who knows.I believe he was not well coached & played scared wanting to make it in the NFL & not get hurt.That is my hope.
I like how Scott developed in 2020.He earned more playing time than David Long.I have to LMAO to think Troy Hill didn’t meant that much to the Rams.
To me if you develop pick up a player for free like McCloud,Littleton,Hill,Fox,Williams, and get a Comp pick for them your winning with that player.Service plus Comp pick means to be the coach & scouting is doing there job well.
