The Rams sold out to maximize their window with Stafford, and they won a Super Bowl. But yeah, in ‘21 they had no first-rounder, and in ‘22 they had no first- or second-rounder (and their third-rounder was the very end of the round), and in ‘23 they still had no first-rounder. On top of that, they’ve seemingly missed on a lot of the picks they’ve actually had. So yeah, it’s a rough roster outside of the stars.

Hawks defense continues to look like it's gonna get run over. I'm hoping the offense can keep up and sustain drives bc hard to see how they are not gonna just allow 150+ rushing a game and be dominated in TOP

Hawks are likely not gonna do nearly as well as people think this year, unfortunately. DL is probably worse this year than last year unless Tre out performs his contract. Even with Bobby back and a hopefully healthy Adams, best case for the run defense seems to be “okay”. More likely it will be bad again. Even if we assume the team has improved talent from last year, their schedule this year is much tougher.

Strength of schedule usually swings pretty wildly throughout the season as there are always teams punching above/blow their weight, so I wouldn't make assumptions based on that. I think the team is stronger in most areas but there is no question the DL is awful and everyone is going to take advantage of that. I still see the team doing about as well as last year if they can stay healthy. If you like The Run, watch Seahawks games. We have some good RBs and no DL, so plenty of ground yards all around!

Yeah, also, judging the defense's outlook based on the final preseason game seems like a fools errand these guys are competing for a place on the practice squad, and both offensive and defensive schemes are vanilla

Yeah it's very hard to see how Seattle is better this year and a lot of reasons they might be worse. The offense fell off a cliff in the second half of the season which smells like tape/opposing coaches adjusting, so I wouldn't expect a replay of the fireworks from early last year. And the defensive line is arguably even worse than last year's terrible unit. We can hope having 3 receiving options and a year of experience for 2 rookie OL will change things for the better I guess. Would love to be pleasantly surprised.

I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the preseason games. I haven’t been yelling “gently caress, wrap him up!” at the TV watching some RB breaking tackles on the way to a long first down like I was doing repeatedly last season And Drew Lock has looked fine?

One thing I'm pretty concerned about with the Seahawks is the same thing I've been worried about since Kam retired, third and long on defense and the offense just hucks it to the TE who's wide open in the middle to get the first. Seen it a few times this preseason too. Will probably still plague us!

The Rams drafted 26 players between 2020, 2021, & 2022. 18 of those picks are still on the roster, so their drafts haven't been complete failures. A lack of first or second rounders certainly didn't help.

Given how bad they were last year it seems like, technically, the IOL has to be better than last year. But they will probably still be bad, overall. Front offices are so stupid. QB and OL matter more than anything else, perhaps get good OL players???

It is clear he was never going to be the guy, but he was reliable. I'm sure he will be picked up by another team rather than falling to the practice squad.

I’m honestly sad to see Colt cut, if only because he seemed like a good locker room presence. But new OC, trying to tank, etc., will get you that…

The Rams' first round of cuts: LB Kelechi Anyalebechi WR Braxton Burmeister DB Timarcus Davis DB Tyon Davis DB Vincent Gray WR Tyler Hudson DB Tanner Ingle DB Jordan Jones G Sean Maginn WR Lance McCutcheon TE Camren McDonald TE Christian Sims DT Taron Vincent The only "surprise" is Lance McCutcheon who was last year’s preseason "star."

Niners have cut CB Nate Brooks DL La'Darius Hamilton DL Breeland Speaks LB Kyahva Tezino DL Spencer Waege Taco Charlton was also put on IR earlier and then his contract terminated. One interesting tidbit, if Bosa holds out through tomorrow he doesn't count as part of the initial 53, and that might be enough to let the niners keep RayRay McCloud or another injured guy through Tuesday, after which they can put him on IR without losing him for the whole season, opening the slot back up for Bosa. If they put McCloud onto IR today he's out for the year.

The rest of the Rams' cuts: LB Ryan Smenda OL A.J. Arcuri K Tanner Brown DE T.J. Carter OLB Daniel Hardy DB Quindell Johnson TE Nikola Kalinic OL Mike McAllister DB Cameron McCutcheon OL Grant Miller WR Xavier Smith OLB Keir Thomas WR Austin Trammell QB Dresser Winn LB Jaiden Woodbey DT Marquise Copeland RB Royce Freeman QB Brett Rypien DB Rashad Torrence LB De'Andre Square OL Logan Bruss WR Tyler Johnson DB Robert Rochell A lot of those guys will be on the practice squad if (when) they clear waivers. The Rams currently do not have a kicker on their roster. Also, the Rams did not release any of their 14 2023 draft picks.

Bell flashed some brilliant play, albeit against other teams' #2s and 3s, I'm excited to see what he can do. I thought maybe Willie Snead would grab the last WR spot, because of his experience. And yeah I've got trepidations about our kicker situation.
