I hate needs drafting. Personal bias. I could see at least 5 good pros coming out of this safety class. Ideally, 2nd round is probably where the Rams would get the best value but I think the odds of the Rams staying put is slim to none

 

[Clayton]

If he falters this year, they can draft one higher next year if the one they take later in the draft this year doesn't show promise.

Honestly, no they can't. Unless the Rams go 3-13 or something ridiculously terrible

I meant higher than 3rd round, not higher than their picks they have this year.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Sorry KSU

Must've read right over that.

I like your draft strategy but they run the risk of missing out on a legit OT come their pick in the 2nd. I feel the G position would probably hold better value in the 2nd and 3rd than the OT position will at the Rams picks. I expect all the OT's that can be starters and not projects will be gone, but the G position will be solid.

well hopefully we will get an extra first next year with a trade back this year. I'm sure thats what the rams will be asking for. maybe instead of the Browns 26 we get a first next year which would be better. or maybe Atl first next year.

I could see the Texans drafting Clowney, then Taj Boyd in the 2nd.

Ready for the combine in 2 weeks.

What's the infatuation with AJ Mc?

You can get more upside than that. He was a game manager in the SEC. Gimme someone who has done more than that AND didn't have an unreal D and unreal RBs.

SJ, of the guys I think will be available with our 3rd and 4th round picks, McCarron is someone I am looking at, but is not my #1 choice. I still like Fales better. I am really starting to like Garappolo and want to see what he does at the combine and his pro day. I also like Tajh Boyd. Logan Thomas is moving up draft boards too...

I would not be upset with McCarron if we got him, considering we will have a dominating defense and a solid running game!!

 

[SJ76]

But McCarron isn't in college anymore where his D and his RBs are dominating kids under 22 and he barely has to do shit. He will be in the NFC west and therefore need more talent.

Look at his 3rd downs against top defenses where he had to pass last year. Auburn ate his ass up. AJ had the best O-lines, best RBs, best D, solid WRs. Can you say jimmy Claus?

Waste of 3rd and 4th rounder.

For fuck sakes, at least get a QB with wheels. I'll take the kid from EIU later all day.

 

[ksudodger]

That is the guy I want... SO BAD!!! The way things look. we might need to take him in the 3rd but I think it would be worth it. I would not mind Boyd either, whether in the 4th or 5th round.. Fales is really moving up and some mocks have him gone in the 2nd round... but if he is there, I want him after Garappolo.

 

[SJ76]

Mocks are going to change drastically in the next month.

 

[Clayton]

Mocks are going to change drastically in the next month.

Agreed. There are a lot of rankings that look weird right now

 

[SJ76]

KSU let's meet up at a bar for the draft. 1st round could be fun. I'm out in west Co. Anyone else wanna join feel free.
I swear I'm not an asshole. Lol. 1st round of drinks is on me.

 

[ksudodger]

I am totally in for that SJ... I am putting in my calendar now. I will buy the next round after you!!!

 

[SJ76]

It's usually on a friday night. We'll figure it out as we get closer. Should be good drama. LOL

 

[ksudodger]

No, last year the first round was on a Thursday night, 2nd and 3rd rounds on Friday and then the rest on Saturday.... but I am more excited about this draft than any Rams draft in the last 20 years.

 

[SJ76]

That's right it was Thursday. I'm in.

Tried this again, going pretty strictly with best available at positions of need (other than my preference at #2):

2. Sammy Watkins, WR Clemson
13. Jake Matthews, OT Texas A&M
44. Calvin Pryor, FS Louisville
75. Kelcy Quarles, DT South Carolina
106. Jimmy Garappolo, QB Eastern Illinois
141. Lamin Barrow, LB LSU
172. Tre Boston, FS/CB North Carolina
203. Jon Halapio, OG Florida

That would not hurt my feelings, but I am fairly sure that Pryor will not be there in round 2
