Hendo is comically underappreciated around here.
This is a stretch but if Hendo was healthy he could be a beast. Arguably he’s been available less than 50% during His 3 year. If his results were compressed into a year they would be comparable to excellent seasons by DCook, N Chubb or Henry:
Rush-326/1459/10. Rec - 49/372/4.

By that metric Cam Akers wouldn’t be appreciated either.
Akers has missed time in one of his two season to injury. Hendo has missed time in all three seasons to injury. Not the same level imo.

I think that our secret weapon may end up being our pass rush, (again).

We have some serious interior line destroyers and that's going to create some opportunities outside.
I think we're going to have two surprise late round draft pick udfa types come out of there.

Then the REAL trouble starts for the offenses facing us.

Repeat.

Even if we don't trade for another pass rusher, Floyd and Hollins are solid, and I love the potential of both Garrett and Hardy.

This is a championship roster because of the guys like Gaines, Hollins, Jones, Fuller, Scott and it goes on and on. There is excellent talent across the board. IMO Snead is the best GM when it comes to finding talent in every round. That is why this is a great team. It's why regardless of McVay, IMO as long as Snead is GM this team will always be a contender. He's the unsung hero on this franchise.

Nope. Missed time in both seasons.
Oh right he had a separated shoulder his rookie year and the achilles he came back from the same year. Still miles ahead of Hendo on availability when Hendo is on the injury report seemingly ever week. In the end it won't matter since this will be Hendo's last year on the team and next year likely Akers last year as we keep cycling RB's. It's clear though who McVay values more after the SB.

Don’t know about that. I think a lot of us have sung Snead’s praises.

Especially for the Havenstein pick and retention. BRILLIANT!

Right.
Not to mention Terrell Lewis if he can stay healthier.

They brought in a lot of guys they could weed out in camp like these two Thomas guys who have great size.

That Benton Whitley guy looks like he's good size too.

We'll see who really wants to play with Donald and Gaines and Robinson disrupting the line.

I just have to point out Henderson produced more yardage in the Super Bowl and made several key plays.

As far as I’m concerned the Rams don’t have anyone they can really rely on.

It would be quite a treat to have Lewis healthy for the entire first half of the season. That would allow the Rams to take their time to determine if they need done edge help from outside the roster.

I'm thankful though, that Hendo made a few, but key plays in super bowl 56.
