The 2023 NFL draft for the Rams

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Stromberg just went.

Another guy I wish they would’ve taken

 

[Retroram52]

San Fran just snapped-up a pretty good kicker Moody from Michigan.

 

[Retroram52]

Ika is a bigger and better DT and will be a plug-in player and the Rams blow right by him and take Kobie. Just a collective bunch of dumbasses that continue to eff-up drafts.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Well, they addressed needs, but not sure they got who they needed to really help the team.

They could’ve really bolstered the OL and made it a strength, but only took Avila and bypassed a lot of OT and C.

 

[Retroram52]

Well. We got one good player. Let's see what the dumbasses do tomorrow.

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

Some of these picks are def boom or bust... Let's hope for boom!!!

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Not only did the Rams take (2) questionable guys that may be developmental, both guys are older too.

Just baffling to me.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Why do the Rams do this every year?

Normally the 3rd round is a strength for them ( at least in years past ).

This year they busted.

You're 100% right!!! I didn't realize until now that Young and Turner are older. WTF is that about? Most teams are taking 21 and 22 year Olds, but the team that is almost guaranteed to stink this year(us) takes a 24 and 25 year old?

Totally different player. Ika is a nose and clearly not what the Rams were looking for. I don't see much to be upset about so far: at least other teams kept them from taking Levis or Hooker. Avila, Young, Turner and adding a 4th and 5th is a solid outcome IMO.

Except Young and Turner are older players, and not polished players either.

And there were better options available.

What edge did you want? I don't think the Rams are done at edge, maybe not DL either

 

[shopson67]

An awful lot of this draft is overaged because of the covid year.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

I will say this, Young is fast- 4.43 at the combine

I wonder if they try him off the ball some.

I think you'll see more OL on day 3. OT dried uo quick, after Bergeron they all really need work. Can get a guy like that later IMO.

 

[shopson67]

Rams are falling into that same rut of finding Players with "potential" while by-passing better players. This is a developmental player who will work into a starter in say two years. Meanwhile, there sits TE Washington a better player and
Zavala.

Washington fell because of concerns about his knees. Zavala still out there, and is coming off of injury too I believe? He could slide a bit more tomorrow.

 

[Retroram52]

Well there is Zavala and Mafi still out there and we haven't taken one LB or Secondary player or a kicker and a punter yet.

 

[Retroram52]

If the Rams are going with decent players who need work, then there are: Zavala, Dawand Jones, Wypler, Adebowore, Raschon Johnson, and Nick Herbig still available.
