I can't imagine Gettleman would sign anyone until he gets a feel for how the young guys are coming along and how much he feels they can contribute.

And if we're going for a veteran, I think Whitner is a much better option than Rolle at this point.

Bigger point is Gettleman and Rivera want a core of secondary guys they can build long term into something like Seattle versus a band aid approach every year.

You must not be too familiar with Cash.  Projected 2nd/3rd rounder, ACC defensive player of the year, and I poo you not, I recall seeing some mocks having him going in the late 1st.  We struck gold with Cash. How this guy went undrafted is beyond me. 

Injury concerns and the fact that he's pretty much just a box safety which there are a lot of. I like him and would be cool with him starting at SS, but if people were annoyed by Roman's coverage they're gonna be more pissed with Cash's, unless he's an extremely fast learner under Wilks and Rivera.

Contract is definitely a big issue with Whitner. Can't see Dave meeting his asking price. The Rams who aren't afraid to spend are balking at it currently.

      Defensive Tackle: The Need that Shall Not be Named

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      Great post! Now that I think on it, I think D line might be our biggest need. We are one player away from having a potential disastrous defensive line. Brown and Wharton struggled last year and Wharton has really only been a rotational player that specializes in one thing. Can we count on him being a full time starter? Jackson is unproven. Do you want a starting defensive line of Wharton, Brown and Jackson? I don’t want to risk it.   I honestly don’t think linebacker is that big of a need. If Rozeboom ends up coming back then why get a LB?   games are won in the trenches and I would honestly prefer us drafting an offensive or defensive linemen over any other position in the first. The prospect you mentioned seems like a good prospect who has had some good production as well. Only problem is defensive line is a position that can take time for a player to develop. Will whoever we draft be ready this season ?

      Have they though? I'll give you KC with Kelce, but c'mon, they weren't winning those SB's because they had a great TE, it was a combination of Mahomes and some great defenses.  Will also give you the 49ers and Ravens with Kittle and Andrews, but even then, both have missed time with injuries the last few years. After those 3 teams, the best teams of the last 2-3 years have not had elite TEs The Eagles had Goedert, he's good, not great. The Bills have also had good but not great TE's The Rams have had average TEs and still consistently run 2 and 3 TE sets with them and still win. The Bucs have been winning the South without a great TE The Lions' Laporta is more a name than a highly productive TE. The Texans have had a serviceable TE in Shultz, but nothing too amazing. Some of the best TE's in the league the last few years have been on some of the worst teams.  McBride, Bowers, Warren, Njoku, even Pitts this past year. A true elite TE is absolutely a weapon in today's game, but I think the best teams use that money elsewhere and find serviceable TE play, usually through a committee where each TE brings something else to the table.
