With the 52nd pick in the NFL draft the Los Angeles Rams select Cam Akers

[Ram65]

I wish you guys would have got Dobbins. Ravens got a big time steal with Queen at 28 and then slam dunked with Dobbins at 55. I'd love to know what the Rams saw in Akers that lead them to want him over Dobbins. I looked at a lot of position rankings at RB and dont recall seeing any that had Akers over JK.

Listen to the Rams scout right here at the 9:50 mark on the video. You get the why right from the horse's mouth. It's a very good listen.

Akers can do it all as a running back.

A small concern for me with Akers is that Snead called him a warrior. Which is exactly what Snead called Brian

maybe he should ask his team why they picked CEH over dobbins. CEH was regularly the 6th rated back of this class.

My only concern with Akers is ball security. If that’s not an issue, I’m good. LOVE what he brings. Great fit.

Ball security always took a little luster off Adrian Peterson with me.

Had YouTube recommended a Cam highlight video today. It was his performance from 6A state championship in high school.

He accounted for 7 touchdowns as a passer and running back.

He has a pretty good arm on top of his running skills

Akers will be a stud

 

[JonRam99]

Why, why does ANY football stadium have exposed concrete around the perimeter where a player in cleats will lose their footing?? Just saw it in the Cam video towards the end. Just stupid.

Talk about great QB Depth! Akers as the #2 and Hekker as #3!!! They solve the Rams QB backup positions and even saves the Rams Roster Space!!!

But, Seriously, I am STILL hoping the Rams can/WILL eventually re-sign Blake Bortles (He is a veteran and he already knows the Rams System/Playbook!)!

You guys definitely know more about Wolford than I do but I would think the Rams would want to have a backup to Goff (But, NO Doubt that the Rams are in BIG Trouble if Goff gets injured!) with at least some NFL Playing Time experience.
