My new favorite is Dante Moore. 20 years old. 6'3. More mobile then most think. Accurate and strong arm. I still love Sellers but Moore appears to be more ready for the next level. I also live in Duck country so I've seen the most of him.
Moore's getting a ton of hype and rightly so. Kid got it done the other night in a big game and hostile arena. But I think he needs seasoning. Gonna be a top pick in a couple years, or in the mix for it.
I'm really enjoying all the options to watch this year. Been focusing a bit on Ty Simpson because he looks like a nice McVay fit. He's real accurate, every poor ball is a surprise. Doesn't look to have the cannon arm on those deep sideline throws, but he's got enough to get it there, which means he may not slot top ten and thus is a QB who could potentially be in play for a team like the Rams who would need to move up.
But good pocket movement, feels the rush but looks to throw first. Makes very aggressive throws across the middle with accuracy, he can feed it into narrow windows. Looks like a real nice WCO QB with enough arm possibly for McVay.

What if Stafford is still healthy and wanting to play another few seasons? Maybe the Rams trade one of the 1st rounders next draft for a 1st rounder the following year? I would be ok with Garrapolo as a bridge temporary deal if Stafford retires after the Rams win it all this season. The Rams can still draft a QB, or is Bennett the real deal now?

2026 needs: CB1, OC, OT. Hope Stafford gives us a little more time. To find a QB.

This may have been mentioned before but doesn't Daniel Jones and Baker Mayfield and Sam Darnold show that there may be a veteran out there that's been underutilized and underrated that could develop into a top-tier quarterback?
Maybe spend those ones on something else and sign a quarterback like that.
Sean McVay should be able to ID somebody like that out there if anyone can.

I’d certainly need to see some sustained growth from Jones, no on Darnold, a Baker Mayfield maybe. I’m not sure how many potential high end, attainable vets are out there without using draft capital.
I’d be fine with that route if this staff saw someone truly worth going after.
I agree, Baker is the only one of the bunch who appears to be a QB that can be built around. I think if you look at all the re-tread QBs who havent "blossomed" elsewhere, it makes the investment in to a 1st round QB the more appropriate choice.
For every Baker we're got a Trubisky, Mariota, Winston, Carr, Wentz...... etc etc
No.
He’s under a rookie contract. That team can, and has, go after anybody they want.
Stroud has two division titles and 2 playoff wins under his belt already. He’s gonna play out his contract. His HC or coordinator will go first.
To me, the bigger question is, “can the texans draft, or was stroud and anderson just a case of ‘right place, right time’?”
Those are two good questions, but they are each a seperate conversation.
1) the Rams win it all (or don’t, sadly) and Stafford retires.
2) Stafford wants to play a couple more years.
If the Rams win it all this year…
Stafford, Havenstein, and Higbee could hang it up. I would have absolutely no problem with that.
But I would rather see Bennet get a shot than jimmy. Bennet COULD represent the future, g- string does not.
If Stafford wants to play a couple more years, then keep drafting great players at key spots. When Stafford walks, the Rams want to be in the best possible position to support a new QB.
Yes, OL and DBs. That should be two positions a team drafts every year.
Stroud would be a very interesting option. Funny thing about him is, he was best during his rookie year. What coincides with that? He had his best offensive line and all his weapons that year. I think he might find a nice environment here.
