The Simpson hype is just something I can't wrap my head around. I can't see drafting a guy in the 1st whose absolute ceiling looks to be Kirk Cousins. 

Thats just Jeremiah pumping the thought that the Rams will take him in the 1st round. He also has him ranked as a late second round prospect. DJ is the only mock that predicts him a day 1 pick.

I'd be surprised if the Rams were all that interested in him. I mean, they moved on from Goff pretty quickly because they saw that his physical ceiling was limited. I just don't see plus NFL tools with Simpson. He's just NFL average Joe across the board IMO.

I'm not sure what his thinking is behind that either. I'm sure the Rams can do better than Simpson as a future successor to Stafford.

Big guys with a history of foot injuries give me a lot of pause. They have a bad track record of reoccurring and he already has a history of reoccurring foot injuries.

Ohh, didn't know that was a thing with Banks. Hmmmm.....yeah, I'd be nervous about that too.

There's already been 7 DTs go sub-5.0. 4.76 leading the pack. Pretty wild.

The 10 yard split is what you want to look at for DL. That first 10 yards is where they earn their money.

I could see the Jets snagging him with their second FRP. Take Reese/Downs/Mauioga at 2 and then come back for Simpson at 16. 

Doesn't help us gain any future picks, but will push someone talented to us at 19.

    • In 2025 Sam Darnold had over 1k more passing yards than Bryce Young on 1 less pass attempt. Repeat that to yourself several times and let it sink in. I absolutely love it when people come on here and invoke Sam Darnold like some gotcha. Darnold is the physical prototype for what anyone needs in a franchise QB. All the physical tools. Few people thought he would put it all together on the mental side of the position. He used to make some of the worst decisions you would ever see. At times in the past he made up for that with absurd throws and athleticism. But make no mistake whatsoever no matter how you feel about our starting QB. Bryce Young is a completely opposite conundrum. He lacks virtually any and all physical tools and athleticism and his elite processing is really mediocre at best on a good day and horrific on a bad day. These are realities people should have already been addressing instead of quadrupling down in year four.
    • The nice thing about the timing of Bryce's contract at least is that it's going to match up with the 2027 Draft Class. No excuses, he either becomes Rams 2nd half Bryce year long, or we draft his replacement.  Nothing wrong with carrying Bryce on his 5th year expiring and a 1st round rookie waiting in the wings. Let the rookie sit until the trade deadline, deal Bryce to a needy team at the time, profit. 
    • Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those.
