Tate and Nacua wouldn't be a bad tandem at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the feeling the NFL evaluators are more mixed on Bain than fans/media are. That actually wouldn't shock me if he slipped. He's not a fit for every team. Wouldn't hate that DAL offer. While I like Bailey, Bain, Reese I definitely don't think these guys are in the tier of Nick Bosa, Von Miller, and certainly not Myles Garrett coming out. They're closer to guys like Travon Walker coming out imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieTitanFan08 Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 With Stafford just announcing he is returning for the Rams in 2026 I see them being ultra aggressive this offseason in what could be a last dance type scenario for them next season. Question is with the Giants a very realistic chance to take a WR at pick #5 will the Rams covet any of the WR enough to trade up into the top 4. Its important to remember they were very close to trading into the top 10 last year trying to get McMillan. titanskick8851 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 3 picks in the top 35, they could fill EDGE, CB, and WR. There's enough depth there, especially at EDGE and WR where there would be enough realsitic options. titanskick8851 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike past drafts im pretty damn open to stick and pick or trade back. Im with @AussieTitanFan08 that reese scares me a bit, I would also toss tyson in there. On top of his injuries his advanced metrics dont paint a very good picture. He looks good on tape but he has a pretty ugly stat sheet. Yards per catch is low Yac per catch is low. Missed tackles forced is low. Yards per route run is low. Contested catch rate sucks, 44% Every other wr projected as top half of the first round guy is only bad in 1 of these categories. He is much more comparable to Boston across the board but boston is a much better down the field and contested catch guy. Boston is a late first projection as well.

I'm not totally out on Reese I just think he is more LB than pass rusher in the NFL and if you go down that path at #4 you haven't taken steps to solve your EDGE need and would still need to attack that in FA or likely in the 2nd round.

All these guys at the top have some warts. Reese is a projection as a pass rusher. Some people might laugh off the arm length thing with Bain, but I do think that's going to matter. And he's not a super athlete for the position either. Bailey there's a risk of him being more DPR than every down DE. I like them all to a degree, but I don't view them as being so must have that I wouldn't consider shopping the pick for a trade down.

Weren't his pressure stats as a rusher off the charts over close to 300 snaps? Something like a 24% pressure rate? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think with reese you have the biggest chance for him to be less impactful. If bains arms force him inside you have an insane DT duo with jeff which is still great. If Bailey is more a DPR than every down edge he can still cause havok. There are quite a few edge guys around the league you would be suprised how few snaps they take. If reese turns out to be an ILB instead of an edge he would have to be an absolute monster to be worth pick 4. As for the stuff I said about tyson. Lemon is elite across the board except for adot and yards per catch which are tied together and he has a very high amount of rac to make up for it. Tate is bad after the catch but great everywhere else. Cooper is good across the board except contested catch rate where he is 50%. KC is good outside his acary 9.5% drop rate. Bell is average or better across the board. Boston sucks after the catch and has a low recption percentage for only havjng a 1.8% drop rate. Skylar bell is lemon against bad competition. Sarratt is unbelievably average but sucks at contested catches. Brazzel is pretty strong across the board but is also terrible in contestes catches. titanskick8851 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it was Jordan Reid in one of his mock drafts who said Reese only had 93 pure pass rushing snaps. oldschool, titanskick8851, and IsntLifeFunny 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsntLifeFunny Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 Usually I'm all about a trade back except last year with Ward. I think I'm stick and pick this year. There are only a few truly blue chip players in this draft and we have a chance to fill a major hole in the roster with one of them. I think the only way I'm making the move is if a 2027 first rounder is involved with additional picks next year. Something like a 1st and 2nd this year and a 1st next year. Otherwise I'm not moving down from the elite players, which there aren't many this draft from what I've seen and read. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
