Please tell me Howie doesn't think a healthy Mills/Darby solves our issues. This is what I'm scared of. Darby and Mills are not the answers to a secondary that's already regularly getting burnt. They should provide marginal improvement, but it'll be like going from a 3/10 to a 4.5/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broadway Joe Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I wanted Ramsey so bad. But at that price we would have sink ourselves into a deeper hole in terms of team building given our current situation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darby is basically just faster Sidney Jones. He can't stay healthy and he gets burnt a lot. Our CB's are so disgustingly bad, from top to bottom.

Jroc04 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 The idea of Ramsey was awesome. The actuality of giving up 2 1sts and then all of our cap next year was just not feasible. Howie made the right move. He’ll get one or two pieces in here for much cheaper with much more flexibility I’m certain. Face it, we have some holes on this roster next year and we’re going to need the money to fill them. I mean, if the Jacksons can’t come back strong we’re talking about G, WR(s), CB(s), DT, LB(s), S(?). We’re going to need those firsts and the money spread out a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least they make plays on the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we finish bottom 15, the players we take with those firsts will suck or top out at average, like Barnett. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still though. Barnett is decent with some potential. And he’s relatively cheap. You can get really good Gs, Cs, and Ss in the mid to late firsts. It’s a crapshoot, I’ll agree but just because you haven’t been great at it in the past shouldn’t mean you don’t keep trying. I was actually ok with Tate for a 3rd last year and it was awful in retrospect. I’m sure Howie pushed for Ramsey but had his walking away point. The rams went the extra mile. And really, they’re still the third best team in their division. They could have made a huge mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding some strength is about all he can do. He's the JJAW of DE's, but a naturally better player than JJ.

RandyMossIsBoss Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I’m not happy, we suck at drafting, and our secondary is probably worst in the league, I’d have given up that haul for Ramsey... but I mean that’s a steep price, so I understand it. I really do envy how the Rams are out and improving their holes to salvage a spiraling season. We’re just hoping our mediocre CBs coming back will fix the D?
