Matthews - Donald is probably the best case scenario for me.

I want Matthews really badly, but I would love any of the picks at #2 honestly, if we stay at #2, that is.

At #13....Donald is obviously my first choice, followed by Dennard/Gilbert. Don't like the safeties at all. My next prospects would be Jernigan or Mosley if those guys are gone.
 
Man. I'm honestly not that big on Mack, but if he pans out to be what the majority think this duo could potentially make our defense top 5.

I agree....I like Mack and Donald only for the reasons of building on our strengths. Turn our defense into the best in the NFL (my hopes anyways). I'd like the Rams then to hammer on DB's and OL the rest of the way out. Just my 2 cents----not a expert :)

Bump. A lot of people wanted Donald at 13 but weren't even sure he would be there.

I remember when @jrry32 brought up his name the thinking at the time was he could be had at the end of the 1st but as the draft neared he kept rising up the board until many thought he would go top 10. Luckily the teams before the rams are not that bright.

But then the rams took grob at #2. Derp.

Not sure how this thread got necro’d but it’s interesting. Also, how’s was I not neck deep in this thread?

If the Rams had taken Mack instead of GRob at #2, then Donald might not have fallen to #13, since the Raiders might have taken Donald then.

When I call Jeff Fisher an A.H. for drafting Greg Robinson with our #2 pick, what i'm really doing is calling myself an A.H. as I went with :

#2 - Robinson
#13 - Donald
 
Jake Matthews and Aaron Donald were my picks to begin with. Would have been dope.

Finding a LT might have helped Fish win enough games to stick around longer. So in that alternate universe McVay might be the 9er head coach.

From that perspective I think everything went down perfectly. :D

Great point and you could actually make the argument that any other player there may have cost us Donald.

So from that perspective, GRob was worth it to land AD.
 
There is a conspiracy. Where is my May 2014 post saying I wanted Mack and Donald? DANG MODS stealing my glory!:rockon:
 
I wasn't here at the time. I thought Robinson would at least be a very good OG. Wrong!

Didn't think Rams would go for Donald with having Brockers already.

Wanted them to trade up and get Martin later. Thought he was a good pick earlier too.

Lot's of good picks here.
 
1. Robinson
2. Donald
-with those two we will control the line of scrimmage on both sides
I don't want to make fun of this guy because it was solid-ish logic at the time, but... Yeah I do want to.

Sorry dude.
