I haven't heard much from posters on here about possibly drafting DGB if he falls to the second round. He has off the field issues, but he looks like a skinnier version of Megatron if he gets his act together.

I also like the idea of trading back to acquire an additional 2nd round pick and going something along the lines of O-line, WR, BPA with our first three picks.

1st: Collins/Peat/Flowers/Erving
2nd: DGB/Strong/Dorsett
3rd (Second 2nd round pick): PJ Williams/Tomlinson/Mario Edwards

Highly doubt DGB falls that far.

Can't help but notice that Louisville has two lower round players that the Rams have visited. Devante Parker is certainly winning the odds of the Rams continuing their 'buddy' system where they draft guys from the same school.

I agree.

If the Rams don't go WR in the first and he's available to them in the 2nd, they should consider it. I don't think the Rams necessarily need to draft a WR if they can't get one of the "elite" prospects (Cooper, White, Parker, maybe DGB).

Rams rumored to really, really like Devante Parker and think he is on par with Kevin White. Could also be a smokescreen to get Vikings to trade up

Current Walterfootball rumors:

4/24: "Andrus Peat won’t get past the St Louis Rams at 10 and could be selected even earlier. New York Giants perhaps?" - Tony Pauline

4/21: "I posted the St Louis Rams would target linebackers early in the draft. One linebacker the team loves is Benardrick McKinney." - Tony Pauline

4/17: "Keep hearing DeVante Parker will NOT be there for Dolphins at No. 14 in the first round. St. Louis (No. 10) and Minny (No. 11) are key." - Armando Salguero, Miami Herald

4/16: The Rams have worked out the top quarterbacks. They did the same thing last year, but didn't take one until Round 6. - Jim Thomas, St. Louis Post-Dispatch

4/15: Four teams are interested in trading up for Marcus Mariota: Eagles, Browns, Chargers and Rams. - Jason La Canfora


Interesting. McKinney is a beast LB. Rumors vs. True intentions :scratch: Who knows, especially now. I would think what teams are saying they want to do and go opposite.

I sure wouldn't mind taking Peat or Scherff at 10 and trading back up for Erving. Best case would be trade back a couple spots get your OT pick up a 3rd. Then move back up for Erving if he gets down in the 20's.

Is there any news on Barksdale? If he signed the focus for the line moves to G and C. If he isn't signed we focus on RT and G for the line.

1 of Cooper, White, Scherff should be there. If not try to move down for Peat or Collins (T/G).

From Yardbarker - RUMOR - Rams trade pick #10 and Brockers to the Bears for pick #7!

That means only one thing - we're trading up for White or Cooper if one of them is there.

I don't like that trade.

Brockers is very underrated in my opinion. alot of what he does for the D goes unnoticed. plus, if they trade him they lose valuable depth on the line.

it's not worth losing Brocker's just to move up 3 spots.

I don't think I like it either. That adds another key need to the draft (DT), as Fairley is only on a prove-it deal. That coupled with potentially cutting Long next year is making this a much less focused draft.

Why not just stay put and take Parker? Or maybe one of the top 2 falls to 10?

I think you're reading the rumor wrong. That trade would almost guarantee that they are trading up for Leonard Williams if he falls. Literally the only player worth giving up a young, developed first rounder to move up 3 spots for especially considering the gap it would create on the roster.

That still sounds like an awful trade

no way that happens. Or I will be buying a new tv when mine goes out the window. It would have to be for a QB imo. Now Farley would make a little more sense. We just picked up Brockers option.

Nothing like a good rumor to get the board hopping!

They just signed Brockers to a fifth year option. Man there is all sorts of garbage being floated.
