Story on Latu's injury/career coming up on NFLN

[So Ram]

What about four years? ~ Todd G.

Oh & give him an extension to
be The Highest paid Edge/DE in the NFL. Blue
Font(totally).

—IMO just like Gurley ,Jared Goff the same.Inalways believe in a 5th year extension & let the player play out his contract.Goes back to Bulger as well.Would have drafted Cutler & paid SJ39.

 

[WestCoastRam]

I think you mean Jalen Phillips who also played a season or two at UCLA then transferred to Miami

Yes, that's the guy. Vander Esch I think was just injury prone.

 

[Elmgrovegnome]

Thank you! Going to try and find it.

I’m pretty sure it was one of the last two. It definitely was not the JT O’Sullivan show. I didn’t listen to that one.

 

[OldSchool]

I'm confused was he cleared or not didn't watch the show. I heard he was fine but he's not now?

I wouldn't be surprised if a few teams didn't clear him. But sounds like most did. Doubt it's unilateral.

 

[ReekofRams]

The Rams medical staff cleared him.

The Rams medical staff cleared him.

Allegedly according to Tony Pauline. It was written weird though the way he said it too.

 

[TexasRam]

Ah snap. Hard to know what the Rams feel about the situation. Hard to believe they would draft him round 1 at this point.

Lots of mocks have Turner falling to us now.

I would rather trade back at this point. Unless maybe Murphy is there.

Lots of volatility in the final hours.

Choose wisely Rams. Choose Wisely.

I don't think teams are letting their info out on him. Rumors could be disinformation because he's a top edge so we're gonna have to see who takes him when. I'm sure there were teams that had Gurley off their board. Same with Thurman Thomas. So some will have Latu off their board at least for the first round. But all it takes is one team.

One thing you know is The Rams Trust there system. Mcvay just said today that the biggest thing in there process is to draft the players
they know & know who not to draft.
IMO Latu is a guy The Rams like & hope falls to them.

 

[CGI_Ram]

Supposedly some Dr was asked about Latu’s injury and he said, it’s not a matter of if it will end his career but more a matter of when.

So is five years of Latu worth a first round pick?

He would not be on my board in the 1st, if true. Sounds like a ticking time bomb.

 

[So Ram]

I’m a Latu FAN !! I say that from just watching a couple games highlights,combine,& of course a players build.

Lake was Latu’s HC in Washington.The Rams have connections with UCLA.Mcvay is close with there exHC(9ers HC).

From what I see is EVERYTHING you want from a PLaYER to be a RAM !!! The RAMS play games,so if Peter creates a report The Rams are going OT(LT) then you might want to think twice.Mcvay came out clean & LOL at the report.Say how would he know ,like I’m going to tell him.Where did he get that info .

It’s just sort of FUNNY !!What I know is The Rams like The Top WR’s,they have certain players circled. REGGIE is The Best & if there is a team to keep a player WILLING to WORK & LOVES to PLAY FOOTBALL this KID(young man) it THE PICK !!!

I can already picture he & Wilson(Payton) playing on The Rams.It’s a vision from the combine,but those 2 PLAYERS would be ALL PRO’S on The RAMS DEFENSE !!

I saw what J.Joyner did as a FS.The game film on him.He was short,but he could & was a willing tackler.Wilson is faster(long distance) & perfect size for a W/Inside LBer. He comes around the Edge amazing & his numbers do not lie.

Latu has the BEST foot plant Ingave ever seen at the combine.
He can turn the EDGE like no one else.I don’t know who saw Kobie Turner early as a Ram.There aren’t many players,including AD99 that plant & take off after the QB once he gets past a Lineman.
Latu -I will say it.Comes off the Edge like Lawerence Taylor.Now that is just once he clears.How that happens is different,but Trust Me this guy is SPECIAL !!
—If there was a player who would beat those ODDS of 5 Years ???
What was special to me was how he stayed after to watch some teammates or friends compete.He is that player who like I keep pounding the table saying he is The Guy !! He is WORTH IT.

Pencil him in on The Right Side of the ball. Byron Young needs to be a specialist.Maybe the Floyd of the Rams.

 

[So Ram]

He would not be on my board in the 1st, if true. Sounds like a ticking time bomb.

We’ll see where he goes in the draft. Reggie & The Rams know.

What we know as Rams Fans is the 2 BAMA guys Lewis & that Center ???

The difference is they didn’t show what Latu did at the combines.They weren’t healthy coming into The Draft like he is.

Your talking an All Pro first rd pick type.Best Edge Rusher in The 2024 Draft. Perfect size,fit, & character .

I look at Cooper Kupp this year & The Off Season he has had.Being 100% & Mentoring Puka.I can still see the first time(2nd day time) I saw Puka &started yelling at him between instances. encouragement but he had just flat out missed a punt.Seeing him now.Plus seeing Kupp get hurt 2 years in a row.Ram Fans should be excited. I know I get off topic but still the vision of what & where The Rams are has to be there.

—I keep saying what I believe .Mcvay & Snead just said what that vision is again & every DRAFT since 2017 is EASY 2 SEE!!! Les Snead see’s it & Mcvay talks about it. That’s looking at The Depth Chart !!!

If ANY RAMS FANS think different,even Oldschool who I love can’t see that ? WOW !!!!

Funny Les Snead said you don’t know Sean Mcvay very well then.
Hoecht says Mcvay is living The Dream working with all his best friends.

Raheem Morris what Rams Fans such as Oldbutnotdead don’t get is that Raheem Morris was a Mentor to Sean Mcvay.He helped him dig deeper to find The Love of the Game again.Mcvay did Trust Raheem Morris to take over if he had left coaching.

Chris Shula is Mcvays best friend.My first post(thread) was The Bis 5.Thing was was watching Shula kiss his wife in the stands. 2 seat in front of me & Mcvay about the same time giving True Johnson a Hug at the 50 yard line.
It was a special day.First Rams game setting against the Chargers in there house.

Point being is Mike Lafluer & The Offensive guys are coaches he trust.He can concentrate more on The Defensive side of the Ball & be that HC in more control of the foundation.

I see The Rams being more aggressive on defense.That all said is The CB group is DEEP & don’t think Aubrey doesn’t have a say in all of this. I think if Latu is that pass,then CB might be getting overlooked .

 

[Classic Rams]

Then sign him to a 5-year contract. When that's about done, trade him to the whiners for a #1.

Then... click-click-

 

[Elmgrovegnome]

He would not be on my board in the 1st, if true. Sounds like a ticking time bomb.

Consider how the refs allow tackles to clothes line pass rushers in the NfL. That’s how Robert Quinn injured his neck.

[brucebruce]

if he knows his career clock is limited, he might be a holdout problem early if he plays well to squeeze his org for more cheddar.

 

[Jacobarch]

Either way you look at it, this will affect his draft positioning.

 

[AZRams]

Or maybe even better, is 5 years worth pick 19? I'd say no.

Myles Jack redux

 

[WestCoastRam]

Bruglar says some teams have him off boards. So let's say it's 70/30 have him on board and off boards and we have him on ours... again, I just don't see how he's not there at 19.

But all it takes is 1 team.
