Mocking the Rams

[stirs]

So at #6, do the Rams sit tight?

Do they now try to move back up to #3 with Minny to get Kalil?

At 6, with Kalil gone, Blackmon most likely gone, which way do they go?

OT and WR were their biggest needs. Rieff? DeCastro? Floyd?

Or do they go DT, DE, or CB?

They are just outside the blue chip box, so now they have some work to do so as not to squander their first round choice.

Trent Richardson

Conventional wisdom says the 1st 5 picks go:

1. Indy Luck

2. Wash RGIII

3. Minny Kalil

4. Clev Blackmon

5. TB Claiborne

That leaves Rams with guys that all could be had a bit lower. Trade down might not be a bad scenario for them. If they stick, I think they go Rieff.

Trading back up with Minny might be too expensive as Minny needs the same things that St Louis needs and at 6 would be in the same boat having missed out on Kalil. I think the Rams have made their bed at 6.

I don't see them trading back up. If anything they might try to move down again.

They won't go DE. They have a former #2 overall pick in Chris Long and spent a 1st rounder on Robert Quinn just last year. James Hall is coming back for another year as well and has 16.5 sacks over the last two years.

DTs they have are somewhat decent, although they're really up there in age. They could definitely use some young talent but with the lack of value with the DTs at the #6 spot they'll most likely wait until next year or address it later in the draft.

A lot depends on what happens with Jason Smith. He's going to have to take a pay cut to stay and even then it's not 100% that they'll have faith in him. Also, depends a lot on what happens in free agency.

Assuming Kalil, Claiborne and Blackmon are all of the board I think they go with Reiff. Floyd would be in the discussion as well, especially if they can't land any of the top WRs in free agency. Richardson is probably a long shot.

[JawnyBlaze]

Agree with Panthro, Richardson has to be be awfully tempting to them. They need an OT, but none are worth top 10, much less #6.

[davos]

I can see them trading down in the draft to get someone like Perry. At 6, meh...I really don't know. Maybe just go ahead and get Blackmon for Bradford as a weapon

[HeatCheck]

I would not think Rams would go after Trent at 4. The have on of the best RBs in the league.

[SOJA]

No way we end up with Claiborne now, because even if the Bucs do go after Richardson, the Rams have a need at corner....fug me

[ZackAttack23]

I still see Richardson going to Cleveland.

[stirs]

I still see Richardson going to Cleveland.

Richardson will not go in the top ten.

[DynastyRTR]

Richardson will not go in the top ten.

I don't believe he will either. Someone is going to get a steal in the mid teens with him. Going to be Maurice Jones-Drew/Marshawn Lynch(with beast mode on) put together

[HeatCheck]

Reminds me a lot of Jonathan Stewart.

[SamTheRam]

WR

[scarface]

Blackmon or Reiff
