After further review, the ShitferBrains Twins picked-up a pretty decent ILB in Landman. He is bigger than most reports. The final tally is he is 6'3 and 242lbs and he hits like a wrecking ball. The Rams were 22nd last year against the run. We all know what Saquon Barkley and the Iggles did to us with the run last year.

Landman has some difficulty in pass coverage but more pundits are claiming that Landman will be a big improvement over Rozebum AND Reeder which is really good news. We shall see.

The more I stare at this list the more I see replacement talent that would make us better than the players that left. The Rams should sign several of these FAs on the cheap no less!

These free agents are still available and could fit with Rams

Asante Samuel, Jedrick Wills, Isaiah Simmons and other unsigned free agents that make sense for Rams

Yep, this dude would def be a good addition to the Rams. Maybe they will break tradition and take him in the Second Round after they trade down and get a couple of picks into the Second and Third Rounds.

He's been on my radar the past few years for fantasy football purposes (my keeper league uses individual defensive players) for his tackle stats.

Some great heavyweights during that time. Ali, Frazier. Holmes and Foreman to name a few.

My league does too.

We use 1 DL, 1 ER/LB flex, 1 LB, 1 DB for our starting defense.

Offense is: 1 QB, 1 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 RB/WR flex, 1 RB/WR/TE flex

Ours uses DL x2, LB x2, DB x2. We also use a coach position, which is +8 per win, -2 per loss.

He certainly made more money with those than boxing.

So, you draft head coaches?

So, you draft head coaches?

Yep, and we're a 16 team league, so you have to draft them relatively early to avoid being left with two crappy teams.

Wow

That’s gotta be rough- a 16 team league.

Is it redraft or dynasty where you keep some players every year?

Is it redraft or dynasty where you keep some players every year?

Keeper. We can keep up to 2 offensive players and 1 defensive player that we drafted as rookies (franchised in essence), as well as 1 standard offensive and defensive player (total of 5 keepers). RBs are scarce (everyone keeps the good ones and the rookies are typically at the top of the 1st round each year). We start QB, RB, WRx2, FLEX, TE, K, DB, DB, LB, LB, DL, DL, Coach. Due to the 16 teams, there are position limits on QB, Coach, and Kicker.

In actuality, it's a 32 team league (two conferences of 16 teams with separate drafts and player pools, but with interconference games duing the season and a championship game. We try to mirror the actual NFL as much as possible. My keepers aren't real strong currently as I don't have a great RB. I haven't chosen who my offensive keepers are yet, but Josh Allen is a lock as my non-rookie. My other choices are McConkey, Kincaid and Swift (pick two). Defensive keepers are set with Latu (rookie) and Hutchinson (although Baun is tempting me).
