Big Name Interviews by Rams

[BOSS429Mustang]

Each team was allowed to interview 60 players at the combine, and here are a few of the big names the Rams interviewed, according to the sources listed. Makes for some interesting insights and of course all the more speculation on the direction they will take in the draft.

If we get three players from this list, I'll consider this draft not a failure but a step forward. Thanks GM!

My take on the list is that it reconfirms the probable fact that OLB - Mack, Barr, Mosely - will not be taken with our two picks in the first round.

I love Zac Stacy. Tre Mason reminds me of a smaller version of Emmit Smith. If we pick up extra picks in the second round, I would love to have him in our stable!

Lindenwood WR Pierr Desir

isnt he a CB?

I find it interesting that despite what Fisher said about sticking with wennie boy as his QB, Blake Bortles name is on this list. Obviously the Rams could not expect him to be available after the first few picks in the draft so.......perhaps this is only a ploy to light a fire under Bradford's panties. It certainly can't be viewed as a vote of confidence for him though.

could be a ploy if Texans select Clowney first

It's a smokescreen. Nothing more.

Distinct possibility. And from what I've been reading recently, the Browns are enthralled with Bortles. If the Rams can convince them to trade up to get him they will almost certainly make out well while still retaining a high pick....that's providing Houston takes Clowney. If Clowney is still there, that is the best scenario the Rams can hope for. They could then draft Clowney themselves, or sell the pick for a king's ransom.
