surprised they couldn't find a spot for Earnest Brown.

also would like to know what they saw from Skowronek in his limited action that was better than what they've seen from Tristan Jackson the past couple years.

and surprised they kept Funk over Jones. I thought watching them both play, Jones was way more shifty than Funk and also doesn't come with a long injury history. Is it because they invested a pick in him vs Jones who was an UDFA? that doesn't make sense because they just dumped Brown who was a 5th rounder, and Funk was only a 7th. would really like to know the reasoning behind that decision. Plus, with the Rams injury history at the RB position, it would make more sense to keep 4 instead of just 3.

Apparently Jones’ ankle injury is worse than expected, so that is the reason they kept Funk as they need healthy RB’s.

still think Jones is better than Funk overall though when healthy.

Here are some players cut by other clubs that may fit come tomorrow.

11 recently cut players the Rams should consider adding

These 11 players were cut by teams around the NFL and the Rams should consider bringing them in.

These five guys should have made this team especially Lawler. That is why keeping Hopkins was so ridiculous. Hopefully they can bring them all back after they clear waivers.

5 most surprising players cut by the Rams

There weren’t many major surprises from the Rams on Tuesday, but these players looked like they could’ve made the 53-man roster.

I firmly believe that once McSnead like a given player, they will keep him at all costs or until it is pointless to keep the player for no apparent reason. Cases in point: Skowronek, Hopkins, Allen, three guys that should have been cut and then maybe brought back on the PS except for that waste of a Center, Allen.

 

[Retroram52]

McSnead are going to regret hanging Trishton Jackson out there because somebody in need of pretty darn good receiver is going to snap him up. Same goes for Lawler, Brown, and maybe Jones. If they clear waivers, they'll all be back.

 

[Retroram52]

On the players cut by other teams: I like Wilson, Bryant, Menet, and Gandy-Golden. All big guys.

 

[Retroram52]

This guy, although highly talented, is never going to be right and healthy in the NFL. Lewis is another one. OKO is continually going on the IR and he'll be there again this year. That is why the Rams are really hoping Lawler clears waivers because he is finally healthy and playing as good or better than OKO. Better yet, the Rams just should have placed OKO on the year-long IR and kept Lawler outright.

Rams expected to place Ogbonnia Okoronkwo on short-term IR

Ogbonnia Okoronkwo is expected to be placed on injured reserve, which will keep him out for at least three games.

Sucks about Kiser but can’t say that I’m all that surprised by it. When you’re a middle of the draft pick and have been injury prone, it makes the decision pretty easy.

 

[Retroram52]

Here is another suggestion of a player the Rams suddenly need. Another Cam Akers clone.

Why waived RB Wayne Gallman II should be claimed by LA Rams

In LA Rams News: The Rams could bolster their RB depth significantly if they submit a claim for 49ers recently waived RB Wayne Gallman II

[Retroram52]

Here is the projected 17-man PS this year. Teams are permitted to carry this many players for a number of reasons. The NFL should just make a 20-man PS permanent and be done with it. Pircher is our International Player Development Program player this year. Didn't see Xavier Jones name on this speculated list. Haydel's name is missing too. Otis Anderson is so small at RB, Atwell might be bigger. What the hell is with McSnead and their aversion towards big RBs?? Good to see Lawler and Kiser on that list. I hope they clear waivers by the end of the day. Brown is on there too.

Predicting the Rams' 17-man practice squad

A good portion of the players the Rams cut on Tuesday will land back on the practice squad, but only if they clear waivers.

yeah and he wasn't very good when he was playing. PFF didn't have his grade that high.

 

[Retroram52]

Eric Banks was cut outright with no recall and he was signed by the Chargers, a walk across the hall. Christian Roseboom is headed to the Chiefs PS. Banks was among a crowded D-Line. Roseboom had a pretty good preseason but is headed to KC. Looks as though Lawler will clear waivers as no other Rams that were cut were picked-up yet. Xavier Jones' ankle is bad enough to be released as an injured player. He may end-up being brought back and placed on the IR for the year. Other than that, in a few hours our PS will be formed and probably released.

 

[Retroram52]

Here is the Rams 2021 PS. No real surprises and some players brought back who will be on the active roster before too long.

No Trishton Jackson. He is gonso I suppose. WE may see him later if he doesn't get picked-up.

 

[Retroram52]

The team is set for now and onward they go to focus on the Bears on a Sunday Night game.

feel bad for Trishton Jackson.

he proved he is capable, and yet still didn't make the team or PS while Skowronik showed nothing and made the team.
