I am under the impression that (one again) we have last year's guards playing. If we could get both Gs who have been successful, we can see what we have.  There is no reason your LG should be a weakness, but we seem to have a history of sucking there.  I am getting concerned that we are not going to protect Bryce and Bryce is not going to be good.  My focus is on 2025 anyway, but there are a lot of questions I want to see answered this season.  Icky, WR, QB (I think we probably know that answer), LB, CB,and C.

I've just never seen an oline look so confused before. They legit ll block the wrong people it's not even about poor technique or them getting overwhelmed from a physical standpoint. They legit just don't know who to block and let people lined up in front of them run right to the QB without even a hand on them I've never seen this happen so many times to an NFL offense it's ridiculous

Judging from the comments it's safe to say we will be drafting Shedeur Sanders with the #1 pick.

 

 

 

It will be interesting to watch the QBs develop in college this season.  Sanders and Beck are above the pack, but there are about 4 who could shoot up boards if they have a good season--and they have the tools. 

I really like Smith, Houston's size---and he could be the dark horse.  Ewers has been able to keep Arch Manning on the pine-that is pressure and shows he's a dog (competitor).  The Penn State QB (Allar) like Smith is a big guy who could move into round 1 if he looks good against OhioSt, USC, etc. We have seen it before--some unknown going into the season.  Milroe at Bama is also poised to get some love.   Sanders is disciplined and seems to read the D well--does not have a great team around him---I would rank them Sanders/Beck (tie) and Ewers. After that, we have to see if someone steps up--and I think they will.  Watch Smith--he is my long shot favorite.

Probably not the most reliable source for comments. I do like Sanders in this next class though. I’m curious to see how he does with an OL this year.

Wouldn't wanna risk ruining that by drafting a rookie center.  I'm glad they thought it through.

I've mentioned it before but Milroe is the guy 100%. Ewers has kept Manning on the bench but Milroe also had to fight to be the starter last year after losing it and showed a lot of toughness. Also had clutch wins against Auburn and Georgia to get Alabama into the top 4 and almost beat eventual champ Michigan, and did so being the dual threat that I think we love in Carolina.

I think he could be Lamar Jackson-good.

    • Teams do some super stupid stuff with mid-fairly good QBs. I think they are just absolutely terrified they will be stuck with a QB that is not the quality of the QB they have now, even if its someone like Daniel Jones. Lots of trash QBs go in the first round. I encourage you to take a look at the sad, sad list of first round QBs in the last 15 years.  
    • No, it will be a raw 6'7" 17-year-old European who just played basketball for the first time in March and who the idiot GM "had first on our board." He'll play the whole G-League season, get in 42 games for the Hornets and average 1.1 ppg on 35% shooting. Been there, seen that.
    • We missed on Burns at his peak value. That’s the problem with trading for picks 2-3 years away (which people were convinced the Rams would suck by now and these would be higher picks btw). Each year away the pick is the further in value it drops. Fitt was clearly hired based on turning us around quickly. It’s one of the many reasons tanking isn’t really a thing as our player JJ is telling you in this original article. It would take the whole organization from the owners down admitting they aren’t winning soon with Burns and picks 2-3 years away having more value because that’s when we are still rebuilding. It would only make sense if Fitt had a longer leash and would more than likely be the ones making these picks anyway which you wouldn’t want. The question is would you rather have those Rams picks with the strong possibility of Fitt still being here or would you rather Fitt try to “win now” like he did and expedite his firing? Altering the timeline would affect more than just the Rams picks.
