MDY10 Posted April 30, 2022 Author Share Posted April 30, 2022 Rams up in 7 picks.. any Predictions?? It feels like they’re going to trade back lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl4life07 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Solid pick by Rams. Lost Corbett and their replacement is Bruss. He is listed as a guard but can play right tackle. He will play guard for the Rams and if there is ever a place you want to draft OL it’s from colleges like Iowa and Wisconsin. So again solid pick. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeotheLion Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Fits a huge need. Can't complain. Thought you we'd trade down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVRamsFan Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 We've all thought OL would be addressed and this is a good way to address it. If not our RG starter this year our LG starter next year and for years to come. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd brought Bruss up before. He's reminded me of a less-touted David Edwards of the right side for a while now. Granted, 2020 was an only-6-game, COVID-shortened season, but the dude went two years without surrendering a sack at RG. @jrry32and I both agree that we would have taken Cade Otton there if it had been us, but I get the Bruss pick, especially with the rate at which IOL were coming off the board. I'm just really hoping that Les has been paying attention that Bielema, who recruited Bruss, Edwards, and Havenstein is now at Illinois; not that I expect the quality of UW linemen to suddenly dry up, but more that Illinois may well now become something of a sleeper school to draw OL from in the coming years. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add in a 4th guy from the Big 10 in Allen at Center. I can't think of a team though with 3 guys from the same school on an ol/dl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bielema was gone before Edwards got to Wisconsin and gone well before Bruss. He only recruited Havenstein on that list.

He only recruited Havenstein on that list. I was wrong on Bruss, and I'd need to go back and do a deep dive, but I thought Bielema was still there when Edwards' recruitment began. He may have been gone by the time Edwards committed (or would the year he would have had initial contact with Wisconsin have been Chryst's 1st season?). Though, Edwards is obviously a very unique case being a former high school option QB who came to you guys at like sub-220, didn't he? So if anything, he was recruited initially as a potential successor to Hornbrook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flounch Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Don't know much about the player but very happy with this pick that meet our needs. And the plus side is that he's going to compete for a starting job this offseason. I still think we need another OL but at the end of the 4th round, it will be more about depht than anything. Don't know if they will use the 4th or 5th to pick our punter.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BStanRamFan Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 No complaints with the pick. Could be starting RG. Today is the fun day. Hoping we grab a RB/EDGE/CB with 3 of our next 5 picks. If we come away with... Dominique Robinson EDGE Miami (OH) Isaih Pacheco RB Rutgers I'll be thrilled. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
