Will be interesting to see what we can do between FA's left, the Draft and other teams training camp cuts. Always a few unexpected guys cut during training camp we could take a run at.

This isn't words of negativity, but it just seems the OL situation holds us back every year from being a very good football team. Tell me if I am wrong fellas.

True...The difference is, this time we have cap space to make moves.

We need 3 positions; RT, center and a guard. We have cap space to sign maybe 2 more FAs.

I look every day to see if Blalock or Wisnewski signed with a new team yet. It would be nice to get 1 of these guys. If not we may have to burn 2 draft picks on o-line.

Very true. It's not as if that Rams haven't try to fix it too.

Think about it. We've added some big time FA's and high picks in the draft. For one reason or another they just haven't panned out. Only one that has recently stuck is Barksdale and he's just an average to above average player.

Again not being negative.

It wouldn't be " burning" a couple of picks? Even if we get one of those FA's, we still need to draft at least 2, if not 3 Olineman!

Not much. If you take into account the draft pool (money slated to pay draft picks), the Rams have $4.7M in cap space left.

Wow, that extra money went fast.

My gut feeling is that we will sign 1 guy from either Wisnewski, Blaylock or Barksdale. Who we sign will determine where someone like Scherff (if he falls to us) or Collins (if we trade down) would play. If we sign Blaylock (the guy I think we sign), Scherff or Collins plays RT from the jump. Barksdale or Wisnewski, the draftee would play LG.

I don't know Commish, that center/kid from Florida still looms large.
