I only wish he had broken his neck so that he couldn’t play any longer. I have never forgiven him for his dog fighting antics. And I never will

They are basically hitting the reset button hiring Joshie as OC and Bradford isn’t exactly surrounded by weapons offensively.

It’s going to be a long year and McDaniel’s offense isn’t all that great.

Jason Smith, Tyson Jackson, Aaron Curry, DHB, Crabtree, Maybin, Moreno…..

At least Andre Smith is finally starting now.

Then he ran fast, jumped high and lifted weights at the combine and shot up to #2. Always trust the tape.

Otherwise, though, give the Rams a break. They’ve played two SB contenders and the Giants, with a dominant defensive line and just a few years removed from winning the SB.

They got 5 CBs (2 starting) on IR. Draft picks used on other posistions like LT, CB, MLB, QB, DE, etc. were needed. IDK how much longer this Rams team has before Spags gets canned, which is a shame too b/c I think he’s a good coach.

And to the guy that said the Rams were foolish to pass Suh. No, it wasn’t. As great as Suh is, Bradford was the right pick. Yesterday, Stafford/Megatron carried the Lions to victory.

He’s not a starting left tackle in the NFL either. The only consolation that the Jags have is that they didn’t pick him at 2 when the draft alotted $25 million for that draft slot.

I said at the time of that draft when everyone was laughing at Al Davis for selecting Darius Heyward-Bey, what was anyone laughing at. That was a terrible draft class full of very mediocre players.

It’s very reminiscent of the ’06 class. The only thing that’s salvaged that draft is that all of the QBs seem to have panned out better than expected.

But they won’t get too far after that…

Said it during that draft when the Seahawks foolishly took another college overachiever, Aaron Curry, from Wake Forest in that draft.

Leave those overachieving but ordinary athletic guys from those kinds of colleges for the 2nd and third round unless their extraordinary physical specimens that ended up at that college by accident (Randy Moss, Jerry Rice, Steve McNair) because you’re going to get disappointed 10 times out of 10 otherwise.

They have completely ignored the Wide reciever and defensive back positions. gregjennings85 what are you smoking? Please share.

The league is filled with high-caliber offensive linemen that were taken in later rounds in the draft. Ironically enough, Jason Smith has been thoroughly outplayed by Roger Saffold, taken in the second round.

Justin King has to be the worst DB in all of football. He got torched the first 2 weeks than gives up 3 td and 133 yards in the first quarter to a rookie WR playing his FIRST game!

Once in a lifetime player.

I have seen a whole lot of Sam Bradfords come and go.

As for the Rams, their offense is just completely devoid of talent. Their defense is awful in the secondary, and they have only 1 linebacker who should be on the field. The DE’s are the only set position on this defense. Sam Bradford needs weapons.

But he is close to. Oher is a better player in offensive line that draft. Jason Smith, Andre Smith were all bust. Eugene Monroe is close to be a bust (very inconsistent player).
