i spent 70dollars on NFL game rewind to watch the rams when im busy on the weekends.. 70dollars! to evaluate the rams. I mean Shawn Hill is one of the better backups in the league but the ceiling this year is definitely lower than what could of been. I would say tank the season but our team is too good for that so idk right now. I'm just sad

Please msg me Aero :) .

I feel like the Rams can still make like the 6th seed of the playoffs but it's time to draft a QB in case this keeps happening.

And yeah Hill was ok when he had a chance to start, we'll see if he's not too rusty to win a few games.

Also I need to pm you my lineup from the 1 league I drafted lol it's pretty nuts.

nice dude, idk how you get arian foster as a flex with dez forte jeffery and freaking stacy?? btw, i wish your bench had more room for depth b/c you need a handcuff for Stacy in Benny Cunningham(don't worry about tre mason starting, he can't pass block yet, i'll let you know if I see him pass blocking better) and foster. your wide receiver depth is good but could be better, i dont like the ceilings of Garcon/Wayne but they have very high floors. Jordan Reed as a #1 TE isn't the best but i like it Walker as a backup. Your runningbacks will probably win you the league tbh

Yeah I messaged you on the site but honestly got a few things to add just in general.

A: There were a couple reaches that allowed me to snag Stacy and Jeffrey, Le'Veon Bell was available until like 3 picks before Stacy so if I got that my draft would've been complete right there but not to be. Our draft was really QB-heavy which allowed the best 4 teams to get ridiculous skill position players. Also Emmanuel Sanders was picked like 15th overall lol.

B: Jordan Reed I think is fine if you're not going to go for the top 5 TEs. I spent my top 8 picks on RBs and WRs but I feel the fallback is not very large vs like Witten or Vernon Davis. Honestly I think most TEs are going a couple rounds too high to really sacrifice your WRs and TEs. And don't get me started on drafting Rodgers in the second round what a joke.

C: I don't think Stacy needs a handcuff when I have Foster and I'm expecting Rashad Jennings to have a big year with the opportunity he's been given with an organization that will need to give him the ball. Also Knowshon Moreno potentially a high reward pick considering I got him like 134th, and if it doesn't work out I can drop him. Honestly I hate handcuffs, would prefer to have the stronger player ready on my bench already, and i can fallback to waivers if there's an extended injury. I say that though but RBs are always so thin.

D: I feel like Garcon will have a lot more open opportunities this year with a threat over the top, and even if that's not true it's a damn good bench pick. I mean it's not like I was gonna use that pick on Witten or Kaepernick so may as well take a good receiver. And Reggie Wayne if he can recover to form I think it's a good risk-reward pick for my 4th receiver, and again, not like I lost anything on that round with Romo and Rivers as my QBs and Witten then off the board.

I just typed a whole ******* post about it I feel weird now lol

Thing about stacy is people underrate him. he only started 12games (and had like 3carries in another), and he got 973 yards in those 12 games. Not to mention the Rams offense was pathetic, most of the time because of Sam bradford missing. If you add in 4more games at the rate he was going he would have close to 1200yards and 9 running touchdowns in a kellen Clemens lead offense.. thats a early 2nd round draft pick. The rams have both a better o-line and backup qb this year, not to mention better (more experienced) receivers. Problem is, the rams actually have a really good #2 Rb in cunningham, not to mention stacy has dealt with some injury problems which is why it makes me a bit nervous. & foster makes me nervous becuase of his massive injury history, i mean the same hamstring has made him miss like 18games or something ridiculous.

I like Garcon as a bench, even as a flex, don't get me wrong. I just like shooting for the Alshon Jeffery's/ Desean Jackson's, like i got last year :)
Reggie Wayne makes me nervous but he has luck and I guess he's still the #1 so he's worth too.

Considering my RB depth I'm fine with taking a chance on Foster.

If Wayne doesn't work out I have 3 startable receivers (Garcon is more a WR2 but honestly you can do a lot worse at WR2). I'm debating keeping the Buc's D but I would probably use them week 1 (Broncos face the Colts and the Bucs I think face someone terrible) and I have to have a D week 4 so I'm thinking after week 5 I should drop them if they aren't performing. Thoughts?

I was gonna go for Rams D as well but they have the same bye week as Denver so O_O

Defense's are so hard to predict. Last year I thought the Rams Panthers and the Buc's would break out. Rams Panthers did and the Bucs didn't. This year I like the Buc's again but somewhat less than i did at the beginning of last year. I know they have lovie but it makes me nervous since they are going to a completely different scheme idk how the players will transition, even though they have a lot of talent. And that front 7 is built more against the run than it against the pass, which Tampa is designed for. I dont have much of an idea.

One team that I think that might surprise is the Saints, because that team is built for turnovers, but I would only play them at home unless they play a bad O. I feel like some team in the AFC north eventually has to get back to playing actual defense (sides the Bengals anyways), but idk. Fantasy defenses are just sketchy.. You have to go with your gut and if that fails try and pick one up asap on waivers.
