I really thought the Rams would be drafting a receiver earlier just to shore up the position in the case of injury.As long as Kupp and Nacua play every game, I agree.
But those guys take a beating and fight for every yard. Do you see them both playing 16 or 17 games?
I just don't see it; and, without either one, it's a big difference in my opinion.
It's why I liked the Blake Corum pick so much.
It makes sense to have brought in another option this year, since it doesn’t seem likely that they will be resigning a few of these players whose contracts are soon ending, unless of course they actually plan to sign them because they don’t think they will garner much interest. But Atwell and Skowronek aren’t apt replacements long term.
I guess it’s also possible that they see Whittington as having much more potential than his draft slot suggests.
