Now, Ty Simpson is a Ram.
drafting a family friend ? To compete w Stetson Bennett for the back up spot ?
when they are in win now mode ?
and most likely a reach ?
weirdest pick of the draft by far IMO
if this is true (big if since you cant trust anything before double checking), then its eye opening how deep cronyism/nepotism can run even in a well-ran organization.

Any organization that doesn't have conflict and disagreements is a one man operation.

????????????????????????????????: Matthew Stafford and the Rams are in deep discussions on a contract extension that would extend him for next season and "beyond" for the future, per @RapSheet

The Ty Simpson pick is making less and less sense... pic.twitter.com/rEsM4GFuVp

disagreement is not the same thing as giving preferential treatment to a guy you know rather than merit

Of course you will. Rams can do no wrong.
