He’s not just small, he looks small even next to small guys. I wonder if they are planning on a lot of 3 safety sets. Corum was an interesting pick. One thing I noticed last year was how the opposing D had a hard time locating Kyren W on indside runs. I think the Rams will generate more movement inside this year. Corum is similarly short, but even quicker inside. By the time the D catches a glimpse, they are already in a different gap. They are going to be hard to stop. Atlanta is catching a lot of flak over drafting Penix, but if they believe he’s a great QB you have to take him regardless. Sure, Cousins is a little butt-hurt, but he’ll get over it—he’s accustomed to teams looking to replace him, lol. by /zn/ 2 weeks 3 days ago Total posts: 6787 Joined: Jun 28 2015 Maine Hall of Fame This draft was WEIRD!!!

KW's superpowers have to do with reading and setting up blocks and reading and setting up the defense, all before he hits the LOS, and then having the burst to come through on great on-the-fly decision making. He's pretty good past the LOS but he's superlative before hitting the LOS. That's a big reason why he's 2nd in the league in yards before contact (here: https://www.fantasylife.com/tools/advanced-rushing ) and tied for 2nd in yards before contact per attempt for runners with 200 or more attempts. by PARAM 2 weeks 3 days ago Total posts: 12293 Joined: Jul 15 2015 Just far enough North of Philadelphia Hall of Fame This draft was WEIRD!!!

KW's superpowers have to do with reading and setting up blocks and reading and setting up the defense, all before he hits the LOS, and then having the burst to come through on great on-the-fly decision making. He's pretty good past the LOS but he's superlative before hitting the LOS. That's a big reason why he's 2nd in the league in yards before contact (here: https://www.fantasylife.com/tools/advanced-rushing ) and tied for 2nd in yards before contact per attempt for runners with 200 or more attempts. by PARAM 2 weeks 3 days ago Total posts: 12293 Joined: Jul 15 2015 Just far enough North of Philadelphia Hall of Fame This draft was WEIRD!!!

POST #26 TOPIC AUTHOR I've read the kid from Texas is a returner but I haven't seen it mentioned in any evals. What they've said is he plays special teams so it could be he's a good gunner. Maybe he has returned kicks but they didn't include it in his evaluation. I agree with Elvis that getting the ball safely in Stafford's hands is paramount but I'd still like the possibility for a short field every now and then. They have tried Tutu as a PR and perhaps he'll be given another shot. Tyler Johnson might be another option. But maybe they figure with White, Curl and Kinchens they'll be taking the ball away as much as forcing punts? On the CB room, apparently they felt enough need to sign D Will and White but not enough to draft a CB. They did sign a kid from Michigan (Wallace) and another from WSU (Lampkin) as a UDFAs.

He led everybody to believe the Rams were going to sign a huge free agent....most thought the Edge from Minnesota or a trade for one of the big two (Burns, Allen). After the fact (when he was getting raked) I postulated he really didn't know what the news was because he wouldn't have played it that way, in that thread. I believed he was told "big news coming this week" and not what the big news was. Think about it....they wanted AD to announce his retirement on his terms so, a) they wouldn't leak it to Jourdan or another insider and b) even if they did, Jourdan or another insider wouldn't leak it to a podcaster. It was an attention grab that backfired on him. Now, with that draft prediction, the first group was gone before #19 and Mitchell, Thomas and Fautanu were all still on the board, so I guess, more bad information. Advice to Jake....stay in your lane. Report on what has happened, not what's going to happen. Or find some new sources. What the hell are Jumbo Jacks and where do I get my free ones?Jake is one of the biggest Ram Pink-Hatters out there. Fan boy. See no evil Ram fan.

Yeah they had interest in Bowers but not enough to make a move. Defense was the priority as it should have been.

What the hell are Jumbo Jacks and where do I get my free ones?I really only know Jake from Twitter, don't listen to his podcast or watch his YouTube so probably not getting the whole picture on him, but he sure does say a lot of stuff that's wrong.This time last year he told us he had a source the Rams tried to trade up into the first round for defense. Jourdan corrected the record that it was only offensive players the Rams had tried to move up for.He had 4 moves the Rams would make in FA this year, 2 that were locks, went 0 for 6.Matthew Stafford doing Quarterbacks season 2, and on and on.I do not consider him a good source of info. I even remember way back when he claimed to have AD contract numbers when he was holding out in '17. You won't be shocked to know he did not have the right numbers.Anyway, when the Rams score two touchdowns in a game, Jack in the Box (a west coast fast food chain) gives away free Jumbo Jacks...
