We need somebody to take some carries away from CMC. Dude's tires are gonna be bald before he gets to his second NFL contract at last year's pace.

Gurley is probably my favorite back second to CMC but what kind of price tag would he demand? Even with the knee trouble I’m assuming it’ll be steep.

Gurley's a long way from what he used to be. Last year the Rams primarily used him late in games.

He's basically a short yardage back at this point.

He still had 800+ yards and his skills are a good compliment to CMC's.

Possibly, but the knock on him when he was drafted was that he'd been so heavily used and battered in college that people feared he'd have a short shelf life in the NFL.

That prediction looks to be coming true.

    • I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.
    • Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.
    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
