Awesome additions in terms of bulking up the frontlines. Greco is solid ala Pace.
But Chris Long is a huge pick. The others if they pan out could be sleepers.
And remember not all great players are in the first 4 rounds. There is usually
better determrined and gritty players in the later rounds.
So far i am pleased with the pick selections.
Go Rams

We have to consider the greatest WR was drafted late, so WR is not a priority. The frontline and defensive areas are the major loading blocks. We have to have a mix of old and new to prevent another horrible start and or season.
So buying beef in bulk is ok especially in this draft.
Go Rams

I'm not sure a guy who graduated in 3 years has many off the field issues... from what I've heard he's a smart, high-character guy.

Justin King has all the potential in the world, but he was never able to put it all together on the football field. I watch every Penn State game that I can and I've been completely underwhelmed with King. He seems gets beat often.
Here's hoping that he can pull it together with the help of the Rams coaches.
I'm really sad that we passed on Connor. He really has a nose for the ball.
Assuming that Pace and Little return to full health (Carriker too) and stay that way, we should be in much better shape and should even contend for a playoff spot.
Looking ahead to next year, I think we need a LT, LB, a speed edge rusher to replace Little and a QB that can be groomed to take over for Bulger.
