Jonah Williams didn't get much from the Vikings. Could have got a bit more from the Rams but it is obvious the Rams didn't want him anymore. Maybe he will be back in a year.

This T. White deal is just an overpayment transaction. The ShitferBrains Twins are banking on this guy being all the way back from his Achilles and ACL tears and they gave him way too much bucks. They could have had Howard for that kind of cash and Simmons too.

It is clear that McShitferBrains is hell bent on keeping his "guys", meaning the WRs and TEs as well as the Secondary, up to speed. These are the two groups of players he started his coaching career with and he continues to focus on and favor them at the exclusion of other player groups like LB, O-line, and D-Line.

Look what they just did with Earnest Jones. Didn't extend him and the excuse was saving money. Then they turn around the next day and give a bunch of money to their fav groups, a recovering CB from Buffalo!!

Here is the list of guys who are still unsigned except for Murchison. Signing White leaves Johnson and Witherspoon where exactly??

They should re-sign Maher and his LS Ward. This is some of the small things but important that McShitferBrains doesn't think through until he doesn't have what he needs. Maybe they are waiting for a kicker in the draft?? Who knows at this point.

Now with the new KO and Punt returns rules changes, the Rams are going to need a good to great kick returner and a good coach to incorporate the new rules so our STs teams aren't shit like last year. Kick Returners are suddenly going for an increased premium.

Johnnie Johnson was recruiting guys to the Rams, would imply he's staying. Still, no deal yet, so maybe they are shaking the bushes first? Or are they happy with Yeast/Taylor and maybe a drafted safety?

Witherspoon is probably out now with Darious, White, and the 3 or more recently drafted CBs (Durant, Tomlinson, Kendrick, plus McCutcheon).

Well, the White deal is being critiqued as close to very risky because the Rams are banking that White will return to the player he was before two major injuries of an ACL AND an Achilles tear. At best it makes him injury-prone. All for eight and a half million. But we have Cooper Kupp as the Rams reference point for both White and Higbee as to the possibilities for such a belief by the Rams. It is very likely the Rams know something that everyone else doesn't but the Rams have also done some things that are pretty stupid when it comes to player personnel especially when a guy like Howard could have been signed for the same money.

This is what McShitferBrains does nearly every year. Was it not just a couple of drafts ago (2022 draft) when they took a number of DBacks to provide Secondary help from the 2019 disaster draft? Now here we are two-to-five years later and McShiferBrains' focus is once again primarily on the Secondary.

And ten-to-one, this 2024 draft will be another draft where the ShitferBrains Twins' focus will be on the WRs/TEs and the Secondary mostly ignoring the other areas of the team that need focus like the O-line, the D-line and LBers. We have not selected a really good inside LB since Earnest Jones back in 2021 because of this bias that McShitferbrains has.

I believe the Rams will not select a player outside of the Secondary and the WRs/TEs until possibly the Third Round. The ShitferBrains Twins simply have this overt aversion to selecting and O or D-lineman in the First two Rounds of the draft. This may be the year that they change-up and take Newton or Murphy in the First two Rounds due primarily to the retirement of AD, but it will be not without consternation, for sure.

They've at least addressed most needs on the surface in free agency other than DT, Edge, OT, and LB. I would hope they would be the focus, but who knows lol.
