Rams Free Agent frenzy

Cortland Finnegan called it a career today. He's done. Here's the link.

If we sign Fairly, then what do we do on Oline draft in the 1st 2nd and 3rd for them? Seriously not sold on what we have on the oline either.

Blalock is coming in for a visit and they have called on Wiz. Remains to be seen if anything comes of either.

He was a tough SOB and brought the lumber anytime he could. He was a significant part to Fisher's D and that toughness. Thank you Cort you dirty playin SOB!

 

[SJ76]

I guess they are talking about a 1 year deal for Fairly. He's been hurt and a roller coast when he played.

No word on Ayers.

Winewski I think may end up with Seattle.

No word on Britt.

Kenny Britt is 27
Dwayne Bowe is 30


Britt has an injury history and i'm not sure if he's lost a step or not..?

 

[SJ76]

Justin Blaylock is 31 - not sure I want to lock up a guard at that age. It smells of injury

If I remember correctly Bowie was among league leaders a couple of times in drops? Doesn't seem to get much separation either! Resume isn't all that good!

As you said earlier, seems as though we tend to sign FA's that have seen their better days, but maybe those are the only ones willing to come here? No thank you!

The lack of urgency to find a center seems odd

 

[SJ76]

Just heard Barrett Jones has added 25 lbs of muscle and is working out a lot.

He hurt his back last year.. No idea how good he is, but I know he's a good guy and hopefully not too beat up from winning 2 NCAA championships.

 

[ksudodger]

Based on what is being reported, I think the Rams end up with Fairley, Ayers, maybe Jacquian Williams as well for the defense and Blaylock,Barksdale,Long and Barnes on offense. I would be VERY ok with that

 

[ksudodger]

I would LOVE LOVE LOVE Barrett Jones to show up and be a stud Center. I still want us to draft Reese Dismukes though!!

 

[ksudodger]

And assuming we do what I mentioned as far as free agency, I think in the draft you will see 1 WR, 2 O Linemen, a FS/CB combo guy and an ILB to groom behind JL55...
Looks like they may go to battle with Foles, Keenum and Davis as the 3 QB on the roster and then look for an UDFA for the practice squad. Then if Foles does not do well, he goes and we draft the next franchise QB. If he does well, extend him!!

 

[SJ76]

I really don't want Blaylock (31) or the guard from Philly (33). I especially do not want Jake Long back.

Does anyone else think we might trade Chris Long during the draft?

KSU who knows who we end up with after FA.. But Lamarcus Joyner is our nickel CB and Safety, while Barron can play Safety or in the slot LB on 3rd down.

Yes, that is VERY true. I still would like some more depth back in the secondary and in the LB corps. We have NOBODY who can play MLB besides JL55. We have tons of options. I am actually legit excited to see what happens.

Atleast he can catch the ball, unlike Bowe....
