    I think he was talking about practice facilities--and they are pretty lame.

    I agree but why call out your own team to the public like that knowing it will make headlines when they already have a plan in place for it and knowing you won’t be on the team a year from now. Seems like an unnecessary shot taken to me, but it’s not a huge deal either way 

  2. On Draft Night:

    ”But I was sitting there and my manager called me and was like, 'hey, stay by your phone. A lot of teams texted me and said they could come get you.' Then the Panthers traded up and then that's why I got a call.

    Shows we weren’t off in our evaluations. His agent expected him to be drafted late second, early third so it’s not like it was a huge reach. He stated he was the 4th ranked LB according to his agent as well.

    Maybe he is speaking up for the future players, trying to improve things moving forwards. Over 1000 yards, that’s not luck especially when the qb you all hate was throwing him the ball. 

    I don’t hate. Bryce, I hope he kills it this season. No QB in the league would have been successful on this dumpster team last year, much less rookie. We already have a plan in place to upgrade the facilities which is why he was making the comments to begin with. Speaking up isn’t helping any future teams, that’s already going to happen. He made several comments since he signed that had been odd, it just seems like an unnecessary shot at the team he plays for when they already announced the plans to upgrade. 

  4. No question, other than gross and Kalil he’s right there with the best linemen  we have ever had, and he is very dependable with not only play, but his ability to stay on the field (knock on wood). We will certainly miss him when he is gone, and I would love to give him a small extension on his current contract, although I don’t know if it is reasonable being that we just signed out guards to mega contracts. As much as we have struggled with tackles throughout our franchise history, you would think he would get move love than he does.

  5. He’s prob not wrong but Adam gets on my nerves for some reason. He has made a few off the wall comments in his short time here and I’m not sure what the purpose of saying this was. He’s not going to be here after this season and has only been on one team, so what’s the point of calling ours the worst? We may be, but STFU and get ready to lead us to 4 wins this season. I miss old school football players, I mean the guy is getting paid millions and should be thankful he’s on is team at his age.

  6. It cannot be stated enough how bad Frank was with O-Line performance. It’s one of the reasons he got Matt Ryan killed his last season with an incredible amount of talent across the line, and the next season they look light years better, with the same crew. He comes here and the line that once looked like the biggest team strength, suddenly could not pick up a stunt and was by far the worst line in the league. I know injuries played a part, but you cannot ignore Franks outdated scheme and the effect it has over the last few years.

    the Rams don't give a rip about draft picks. 

    this draft aside, McVay has never had a 1st round pick in his career and paired with that with missing his 2nd a couple years on top of no 1st.  They got 2 NFC Championships and Super Bowl during that window.   Under valuing them has at least worked for them overall. 

    It is crazy how they don’t care at all about high draft picks and have been successful.

    Honestly, this is the move that impressed me the most out of the whole draft. The fact we were able to come away with a solid WR, potential stud TE, RB, and a second round pick next year, is fantastic. 

    No question, and to get the 5th round option for Legette, we really came out well after trading away so much draft capital for Bryce. To get the guy we were targeting with a 5th year option as well as getting a 2nd back for next year is a huge win

  9. Article: 

    The Rams must love rookie defensive lineman Braden Fiske, because they paid the Panthers a fortune to move up in the second round and draft him.

    To move up from No. 52 to No. 39 and draft Fiske, the Rams gave up the 155th overall pick in this year’s draft, as well as the Rams’ second-round pick in next year’s draft.

    That’s a rare price to pay, for a move up of just 13 spots in the second round. In fact, according to Seth Walder of ESPN Analytics, the Rams overpaid by the most any team has overpaid to move up on Day Two of the draft in at least the last six years.

    Ultimately, the Rams used two second-round picks and a fifth-round pick on Fiske. That’s a lot to spend.

    For the Panthers, it’s a great deal that nets them a second-round pick next year in addition to Jonathon Brooks, the running back the Panthers drafted after making another trade that packaged the two picks they got from the Rams. The Panthers didn’t have a 2025 second-round pick, having shipped it to Chicago in last year’s Bryce Young trade, but now they have a second-round pick after making a good trade on Friday.
