These type threads seem so dumb to me. We coulda had Tom Brady in his draft too. Everyone missed on nacua...

Stupid to even think that, that's like us hitting on colston. rare.

we could have done better:
Foskey?
How about: Branch, Martin, Dexter, Rice, Dell

Lots of options we missed on.

Using this logic, every other team besides the Rams should fire their coach and GM because LA hit on a mid-round draft pick.

It’s more about coaching than missing. There is a reason once Nielsen left, the DL a as cross the board has gotten awful.

That is the issue in the NFL with drafting players and havi by shot coaching. It ruins players. Foamed could turn out to be a stud with a legit DL coach.

Same goes for the OL. They regressed and Penning has sucked, but the OL has been mediocre to bad since Marone came back.

Get good talent developers and you see what happens.

I still dont know how the hell this guy lasted to end of the 5th round. We actually took Howden that round before him.

Scouts don’t look at college tape of these guys?

Do we have Mcvay and the Rams offense? No, then not the same Puka

I must’ve missed when we signed Jesse the Cheerleader to the active roster.

I think our rookie #17 is probably similarly talented. We just don’t get the ball our talent out in space the way the Rams do it.

Do you think development and the offensive scheme might be part of that?

And he could have been a bust on 30 other teams. Some players just find the right fit.

Colston might have been a 1 and done with another franchise and Graham ruined his HOF career leaving Brees.
