Here's the final results after this weekends draft. Oh well at least all of the players I selected were drafted this time.
1)
1 Sam Bradford QB Oklahoma Drafted by Rams 1st pick
This is the Rams quarterback of the future and its time to stop looking at other positions for your very first pick and get your quarterback. As much as I like Suh the Rams have to get Bradford here I just can't see them passing on a quarterback again this year.
2)
33 Everson Griffen DE USC Drafted by Minnesota 100th pick
The Defensive End position needs upgraded in a major way and with Leonard Little getting older and not much depth I wanted to address this need right away and with a talent like Griffen falling I could not pass on selecting him at a major position of need and value. This will take some of the pressure off of Chris Long on the other side.
3)
65 Navorro Bowman OLB Penn State Drafted by San Francisco 91st pick
When you read the scouting report on Bowman it states first round talent with character flaws but a top weak side linebacker and guess where the Rams lack depth? You got it weak side linebacker as in no depth and before the signing of Na'il Diggs nothing to mention as far as a top player at that position.
4)
99 Carlton Mitchell WR South Florida Drafted by Cleveland 177th pick
At this point in the draft it was time to get Bradford some weapons and when I started searching for value at this point this player kept rising up boards that I was looking at and when I saw the measureables 6'3 215 4.4 well I believe he's more than just a red zone threat.
5)
132 Ed ****son TE Oregon Drafted by Baltimore 70th pick
Another weapon to grow with Bradford and stretch the middle of the field as well as another big target for my young QB. Three year starter for the Oregon Ducks and a consistent player in that offense and runs solid routes.
5)
163 T.J. Hart S Oregon Drafted by Cleveland 38th pick
When I was scouting the Ducks this was the player I was focusing on for my defense and I had a feeling he would be gone before I could make the selection but I thought I would take the chance and was able to get him after all. The scouting report on him is that he's a solid tackler and reminds you of Bob Sanders and that was enough said for me also he was a leader on defense.
6)
170 Charles Scott RB LSU Drafted by Philadelphia 200th pick
I saw enough of this player during the season that I know that he will be a good backup for Stephen Jackson. This young man is a punishing runner and has a nose for the end zone. He's hardly ever brought down by the first tackler and a two year starter for the Bayou Bengals.
7)
208 Kevin Thomas CB USC Drafted by Indianapolis 94th pick
Bringing in more depth for the defense with this nice sized corner from USC who had a good senior season and will bring in more competition for the secondary. This player plays heads up football and has better than average football awareness.
7)
226 Brandon Deaderick DT Alabama Drafted by New England 247th pick
Looking at the big trade today I'm glad I made this selection. But VJCPatriot said it earlier during this draft process that Carriker was not a good fit for the Rams defense and I see they finally bit the bullet and traded him to the Redskins.Deaderick played under the shadow of a few good players on that Alabama defense and did not do much during the season as he had the previous year but he had a reason. If you had got shot in the arm I'm sure it would make a difference in your performance as well.
7)
254 Chris Scott OT/OG Tennessee Drafted by Pittsburgh 151st pick
I wanted position versatility with this selection and thats why I went with this big fellow from the Volunteers. Speaking of big check out these measureables 6'5 338 and a three year starter for the Vols convinced me to add him to the Rams offensive line.
