I also think Kyren Williams will not be extended.

I think it depends on their latest assessment of Blake Corum. Is he really part of the future?

BrooklynRam74 wrote: ↑April 24th, 2025, 8:39 am No reason to extend Kyren. We have to learn from Gurley. Kyren is very good but not special, and fumbles a bit too much. Keep drafting a RB every year.

^^^ this. Find a RB, ride him till contract time , and repeat.

Would you trade Williams today for a 4th?

I would. It's the right time, but I don't think they could get a 4th.

I definitely wouldn’t, but I’m just a dork typing on a phone.

Kyren had a very costly fumble against the Eagles, but so too did Stafford. The crazy thing is that McVay doesn't trust anyone but Kyren who is very good in pass pro.

No way on a RB early. Waste. I can see Egbuka for sure. Load up for #9. I can def see trading up for Loveland too. Don't think he will be there at 26.

Brock Bowers as a Ram... Would have been something amazing.

I can see trading up. I actually like Warren and Loveland just as much. All three grade out about the same, will be drafted in about the same spot. Thus, I can envision a trade-up as Brooklyn eluded

Strangely, I can now envision the Rams selecting RB Omarion Hampton (North Carolina) at #26 overall, however not trading up to get him in tonight's NFL draft.

I'm still thinking about our team trading down into the high second round, however that may not prove possible; it does strike me as the best option if it could happen.

The Good Guys 'taking a flyer' on QB Kyle McCord (Syracuse) in the fourth round, that strikes me as plausible, although the classic Rams-oriented name belongs to QB Dillon Gabriel (Oregon).

From what I've read, the only QB actually worth a first-round pick is Cam Ward (Miami), who will almost certainly be selected by the Titans at #1 overall, however it's probable that three others will also be chosen tonight, hopefully not by our team... :? ;)

RAM SEASON!!

Joel Klatt, who I trust, says if the Rams DO trade up it's to get RB Omarian Hampton. So, who knows

Wow yeah that would be unexpected

BrooklynRam74 wrote: ↑April 24th, 2025, 2:08 pm Also think Rams would be happy sitting at 26, holding onto draft picks, and drafting Egbuka.

Strange coincidence - I was thinking exactly that about an hour ago - Egbuka. Another good weapon for sure

You two are connected in a special way. lol

100% We both know football

Egbuka and Hampton still there with TB up...I think they might go Egbuka. :?

Well, not happy about being right on that one...however, I don't think the Rams really needed him this year.

Still some good players left - Simmons, Starks, Campbell, Golden, Johnson

From the Intel I'm seeing Rams love

Omarian Hampton
Colton Loveland
Emeka Egbuka

All gone....

WR Matthew Golden from Texas?

In my mock, I had the Rams taking D. Jackson - OL Ohio State (based on who was left).
Rams like versatility on the OL, so we'll see.

Yeah, we're definitely gonna draft a QB.

I don't understand the Packers going WR - they already have 4 very good WR's on the team...but whatever.

I hoped you jinxed yourself.

CB Will Johnson and ILB Campbell are still there but 2 teams pick ahead of us so we could be hosed.

Mike Green (edge) is also very good...small school, but he's legit.

From what I read, Will Johnson dropped due to injury concerns. I personally wouldn't do it. Remember Todd Gurley?

I believe Johnson's issue is turf toe. Doesn't seem like it should be that big of a deal.

Well, Minnesota beat us to him also. haha

Still some very good players on the board...NYG moving up to likely take a QB.
Looks like a decent situation for the Rams to trade back if there are any takers...but I think Simmons would be a great pick for the Rams...this should be interesting!

For some reason, I thought it was a knee thing. We do need CB help greatly.
