Walsh drafted defense high cause he knew he could scheme offense. Shanny prob the same. Would hate it if either of the lines were addressed with the first pick.

Reason being, Walsh can scheme yea. But put him with elite talent and you got the best player to ever play the game #80. Shanny needs a diff maker at WR

But back then defenders could play defense. In todays game, defenders aren't allowed to play D.
So why not build a high Octane offense that can run threw the league?

I mean we already have the defensive front. J. Ramsey didn't improve the Rams the way hiring a offensive minded coach and giving him the offensive pieces to compete did. Besides, the Rams already had the defensive front 7 in place. Remember how we looked the season before last? Same DB's for the most part as last years team, with added defensive front players on the edges and added LB'ers.

We should get a lights out WR along with a O-lineman at 13 & 31 so that we can exploit the NFL rules on defense. That or grab another lights out front player; Pass rusher, run stopper, or a mid-level defender.

Anyone that doesn't see the need for a speed receiver in this offense needs to go watch some film of KC when Hill has not been fully healthy - things aren't the same.

I like Higgins but Ruggs' speed would be too much to pass up.
At 13 sometimes you just have to go with the best player available as teams tend to load up on the spicy position of need guys, DEs, QBs, and DTs.

WR sounds good if they are elite. I would love to see a guard but often you can get top guards late in the first. A center if they are elite perhaps?
I'm not either considering this draft is so deep at WR.

After watching this video and a few others, One of the top 4 OTs, Kinlaw, or Brown will be fine at 13. Scheming with Hurd healthy and on the field could be special.

This also. Ruggs probably would have closed easily on Jimmy's over throw.

Jay Glazer's mailbag from the athletic has me thinking they'll actually look to flip the pick depending on how the board shakes up.

No one in this draft plays as fast as Hill

I don't think Becton gets out of the top 10.

Ruggs sure looks right there with him to me

Jimmy G is not going to out Mahomes Patrick Mahomes. Not now. Not ever. Defense is our best bet.

Screw defense, we need to spend the 13th pick on BRA, Best Referee Available!!! If you're gonna try and out do Mahomes!!!
