  • Just Curious

    Hey guys. I'm just curious to know what the Rams are doing with their pick. I trust you guys would know the situation better than anybody right? I know it started with Clausen, then Suh, now Bradford?
    Honestly I think Bradford/Clausen would fall apart starting for you guys on day one, (no disrespect) and am curious to know what you guys think?
    Any talk on Jason Campbell?

    Re: Just Curious

    Right now the popular vote is Bradford with Suh a close second. Our line is not as bad a previously thought with two people that have the potential to be pro bowlers in it, just some questions at RG. There was some speculation on a Campbell trade, and I wouldnt have minded it before we landed in the #1 spot, but since we are in the position for bradford now I would give the chance of this happening less then 20%. Unless the Skins give us campbell and their first second and third round pick ;)

      Yeah, you guys do have a pretty good oline.. Not nearly as bad as ours atleast lol. Yeah nothing wrong with Jason Campbell, just needs to see a new team at this point in his career. It's a bit sad for our team right now at fourth though, considering we have Haynesworth so no need for mccoy or suh, and our favorite (bradford) all of a sudden hit the rams sights.

      I've read a few things mentioning how Spag only has one more year to prove himself and drafting a QB at one could threaten that.
      Either way, let's hope it works out best for both teams I guess eh? I really do hope taht for your teams sake too Bradford doesn't hold out on signing a contract with the Rams which I've also read.

        The Redskins gave up more sacks on fewer pass attempts than the Rams did last year.

          Honestly, all the reports that the redskins are the better fit for him or that Bradford wants to play for the redskins and all those negative rumors are just spread by the Washington press to somehow help their team. Just like how the Philadelphia media spread rumors about our team the other week as well.

          Bottom line, unless we get a ridiculous trade offer for the #1 pick. Bradford is wearing Ram horns next season.

            I don't mean from the oline.
            Marc Bulger for example over the years developped this whole, "I'm gonna throw the ball into coverage because I dont' wanna get sacked" type of instinct.
            Don't get me wrong I have nothing but respect for all of you loyal Rams fans, but you're team is the worst in the NFL. I wouldn't be surprised if Bradford pulled an Eli Manning type thing leading towards April 22nd.

              Oh no doubt about it, but then again we do have better coaches, better ownership and more money. You really never know right?

                Who are you trying to convince... us or yourself?

                The Rams played the Redskins in Washington last year, and Washington won 9-7. The Rams also played the Redskins in Washington in 2008, and the Rams won 19-17. So, if the Rams are the worst team in the NFL, what does that make the Redskins?

                Better coaches? Well, Mike Shanahan does have a very good track record, but past success does not guarantee future results (i.e. Joe Gibbs 2.0). Spagnuolo is a new HC, and we'll have to see what he is like in the long run.

                Better owners? Dan Snyder is a lousy owner. He has made bad deal after bad deal, signing expensive FAs who have done nothing to turn the Skins into a winner. The Rams' ownership is in a state of flux. We don't know what the new owner will be like.

                More money? Who cares? The Rams have enough money to pay Bradford his market value.

                Seriously... I really think you are here to convince yourself that the Rams will simply pass on Bradford and let him fall to Washington, or that Bradford will refuse to play for the Rams.

                I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you.

                    Okay now the question is who are you trying to kid saying the Rams aren't the worst team in the NFL? You know that so well and you're in denial, but either way you can keep convincing yourself that.
                    Dan Snyder isn't a lousy owner, he just happens to have so much money that he throws it out to people who aren't deserving some would make a case for.
                    I'm not trying to convince myself anything. I'm just dedicated and have an open mind to every team in the league, I think you should maybe realize that the Rams are anything but an improving football team.
                    Again, the Rams did beat us in 08 and lose in 09, but we're a bad team IMPROVING. Not getting worse.

                          Have you guys added anyone? How do you expect to improve without adding one free agent for depth and leadership.
                          You have two positions worth mentioning, Jackson and Atogwe who will most likely get picked up by another team.
                          Let's not even get into your receivers. In fact what are their names?

                            how are the redskins improving? by my watch they've been getting worse every year, despite their quarterback improving every year and the owner throwing record contracts at people every offseason. the rams released about half their roster last year, and are in full rebuilding mode, despite all that we were a donnie avery fumble away from beating you guys two years in a row. i think we know where this is going, bottom line is don't call the kettle black.

                              I live in the DC metro area so when you say the Skins are a bad team improving and suggest the Rams are not is so ignorant and shows you know very little about your team.

                              The skins have alot of veteran players past their prime. They have way too many overated and over payed players and are stuck with them. On the other hand the Rams are much younger and will continue to get better and better as they continue to add talent through the draft and future free agnency.

                              The Rams tend to hold on to draft picks and acquire extra picks while your Skins seem to give them up just like your 3rd round pick you lost cause your so called great owner got his hands caught in the cookie jar.

                              Go Rams

                                So how many changed their minds since the end of the regular season?
                                by clarasDK
                                There is a lot off back an forth on taking DT or QB with our first pick.

                                At the end of the season I had a clear feeling that most would want Suh, but now many want Bradford. So did you change your mind and if yes why?

                                Until now Bradford has not done much do rise his stocks, only a good interview and maybe gaining some weight. Suh had a VERY good combine so he has done nothing to decline his value.
                                I wanted Suh then and I want him now

                                So we picked Bradford, but what if we could of picked Suh and now Clausen. Would you have rather done have them?

                                Bradford statement
                                by richtree
                                I think all Rams fans should be extremly happy today. Many Ram fans are saying, "Clausen and McCoy are both available and we should have taken Suh or traded out of the #1 slot."


                                I personal think that is not the right way to look at this.

                                I think all Rams fans should be even happier with their selection of Bradford. If no team wanted to trade up to get Clausen or McCoy at the end of round 1, it just greater confirmed the disparity between Bradford and the rest of the QB's.

                                I myself wanted Suh and Vick, Pike, or even McCoy but after seeing Clausen and McCoy not present in round 1 and that a team would actually take Teabow over the aforementioned just greater confirmed the franchise's selection in SAM BRADFORD.

                                I know if we took Clausen #1 overall there is no way he would have made it out of the first round or even past the top 12 picks. And definately Teabow wouldn't be selected over Bradford.

                                So, after greater analysis, I hope the Ram Nation can see that this is the best pick for our franchise.

                                Don't be the gambler that roots against his selections because he couldn't get his bets in to his bookie/vegas. You should want to win and we won with our selection and the #1 pick.

                                I myself understand this being a Suh fan, Vick promoter, and Tony Pike hyper....

                                But yet I know we made the best pick at #1 and hopefully go :

                                G. Tate / A. Benn Round #2 <---this is the pick we can fight over ..offensive, denfensive, trade....

                                but NOT Sam Bradford !!

                                thx

                                He believes the Rams are making a grave mistake, if they draft Bradford.
                                Colt McCoy is much the better prospect in his eyes, showing the skills, which will much better to translate to the NFL. He believes Bradford will struggle with pressure, be unable to keep plays alive, and struggle with the mental side.
                                He said he is very worried for the Rams and was quite convincing with his points.
                                Is anyone in the same mindset?...

                                Yes 100%. McCoy will be a better NFL QB than Bradford will be. I'm sorry if you are on the Bradford band wagon and put your future Rams success and hopes already in Bradford, but the media and whoever else has blown up Bradford.

                                Why is it when they were playing football still SUH was the number one draft pick hands down? Because he was the best college football player that was playing that had a impact on his team. Now Bradford is? what has changed? Nothing! Media blows things up and changes so many things that it changes peoples mindsets.

                                McCoy and Bradford have both had bad games like any human being has bad games or times, thats a none issue. But what McCoy has to offer has far more upside, he doesn't have that media storm to build up his stock. The people who think he has this great potential aren't saying anything because they want everyone to think he will slip to the 2nd round. Those same people will take him sometime in the mid 1st round.

                                I pray and hope we take BPA SUH as our no.1 pick and we trade up and take McCoy in the first. We get a generation DT and our QB of the future. With great leadership and a will to be the best.

                                Before you respond in negative please open your mind up and think about

                                IMO if Bradford and his agent are going to be difficult when it comes to signing him, i think we should take Suh and trade for Jason Campbell. This would also save us money and we would have a known solid starter at QB not a rookie with some questions. Personally i would rather go this route than drafting Bradford because we get two for sure starters day one
