Corbin's Last "Best in Class" 2016 Ram Mock Draft

[Corbin]

We have all been thrown for a loop with the ' Mega Trade' that just happened that put us in prime position to take either Wentz or Goff for our franchise QB but then there in-lies the problem. How do we further take advantage of our current draft position. My mock is a projection of what I think Snead and Fisher will agree abouts on what they envision for our long term future and success.


First off, how many years have we been saying for the most part we are a consistent QB away from the playoffs? We have watched multiple times an inadequate QB takes our playoff or division dreams and wrecks them on the shores of mediocrity.

I give you our future with our number 1 pick.

The dude is accurate, tough, tried and tested, determined, and has a no quite and can do attitude that I think will make him successful. He's 6'4 215 and on par with alot of other talented HOF QB's when they came in the league he'll just need to fill out a bit. My favorite thing about him is his pocket presence and ability to slide and move around like all the great QB's have the ability to do ( Brady, Rogers, Favre etc)



Now what do we do with our WR situation? It's pretty legit we just need something to complete it and what would that be? A tough precise route running machine who is consistent on winning match ups and creating separation and giving enough of a target for his QB.

SNEADS MOJO KICKS IN ONCE AGAIN:
We trade Case Keenum and our 6 rd (190) pick to the Denver Broncos for their first rd. pick.

With the 31st and last pick of the 1st round of the 2016 NFL Draft the Los Angeles Rams select:

Dude would beast it with our current WR's and scheme I guarantee it!


Round 4 Pick 110:
Cyrus Jones CB ALABAMA

We all know that that Fisher loves his Secondary and CB's and I'm sure if there is a CB slipping in the draft Fisher and Snead would definitely take a bite into them in the 4th round!.

Round 4 Pick 113::
GRAHAM GLASGOW C Michigan

OVERVIEW

Left guard, right guard, center: wherever he lines up, Glasgow is a tough blocker that shows enough mobility to make creases for running backs. Glasgow started at right guard as a junior before moving into the pivot for 2015 after incumbent Jack Miller ended his football career due to concussions. Glasgow's nine starts there in 2013 made it an easier move, allowing him to lead a rejuvenated Michigan offense and garner consensus honorable mention All-Big Ten honors with his play.

ANALYSIS
STRENGTHS
Has started as both a guard and center and offers roster depth at either position. Strong lower half. Adequate at sustaining blocks long enough for runners to hit the holes. Aggressive at the point of attack and looks to grind defenders off their spot with leg drive and upper body strength. Has the base anchor to stone a bull rush if he gets even average arm extension. Maintains good pocket depth in pass sets as both a guard and center. Tape gives hints of some mean. Praised for consistency by Jim Harbaugh and considered a leader on the team.
WEAKNESSES
Snap-to-step quickness just average. Marginal athlete who plays with heavy feet. Below average at moving his feet and adjusting his path to block moving targets on the second level. Angles to second level blocks need work. Hands get too wide allowing defenders into his frame first on occasion. Shows issues with slow recognition of twists. Was arrested for driving under the influence in March of 2014 and had his probation extended for violation of alcohol during the probation period. Scouts are concerned with his off-the-field discipline with more free time available.
SOURCES TELL US
"Well (Jim) Harbaugh has been good for him. He's not a great athlete but he’s got some power but it won't matter if teams don’t trust him because of his issues with drinking. I think Harbaugh kind of woke him up to how much he stands to lose. I don't see us pulling him off our boards for his background though." -- NFC Director of Scouting
NFL COMPARISON

BOTTOM LINE
Three-year starter who relies on power over athleticism to win his reps. Glasgow’s strength at the point of attack will appeal to power running teams, but his inconsistent connection percentage on second level blocks may worry some teams. Glasgow needs to improve his hands, but he has enough upside to be a quality backup at two positions or maybe an eventual starter.

I like ol Glasgow and think maybe with a year or preparation or half a season he will be ready for the starting Center position.

Round 6 Pick #177:
Moritz Boehringer TE/WR University of Germany

View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJQFY9E0urc


6'4 1/2 Weight 227
40 YD dash 4.41
Vertical 39"
Broad Jump 10' 11"
Short Shuttle 4.09
3 Cone drill 6.64
60 yd Shuttle 11.15
Bench Press 17 Reps

I think this guy is worth taking a late flyer on TBH. He's smart and willing unlike some TE's we've had in the very recent past and willing to learn and get better. Dude seems like he has the ability to be used as a TE and developed for the future.

 

[JackDRams]

This would be an amazing scenario. Though i don't think Denver takes that deal. Maybe if it's their second round pick.

 

[8to12]

I like what you've done... especially the trade get back into the 1st round. However, I would trade that pick back down into the 2nd so I could get (2) receivers ; a slot guy (Sterling Shepard) Rnd #2, and a true wideout (Cherone Peak) with extra pick gained (Rnd 3 or 4) ....... not saying Thomas is not a true wideout. Just clarifying the purpose of my 2 picks

In the 4th round, I'm going with a TE. Jerrel Adams, Nick Vannet, or Tyler Higbee (that is if Higbee's still on the board after his recent arrest)...whoever is still on the board. Regarding CB, I just don't like Jone's height. There will other CB's that are feisty and play tough press coverage in the 6'0" to 6'1" height range i.e. Maurice Candy, James Bradberry, Keivarie Russell, Daryl Worley, Rashard Robinson

We trade Case Keenum and our 6 rd (190) pick to the Denver Broncos for their first rd. pick.

I like your Draft!! With 'ONE!' exception, Put SS - Miles Killebrew - Southern Utah in, in place of CB - Cyrus Jones, and it will be PERFECT!! JMHO :mrburnsevil:

 

[Corbin]

This would be an amazing scenario. Though i don't think Denver takes that deal. Maybe if it's their second round pick.

I know I might be a bit biased but Keenum does have a first round tender and if we throw in a 6th I could see Snead doing something similar draft day with our few picks can't you?

I like what you've done... especially the trade get back into the 1st round. However, I would trade that pick back down into the 2nd so I could get (2) receivers ; a slot guy (Sterling Shepard) Rnd #2, and a true wideout (Cherone Peak) with extra pick gained (Rnd 3 or 4) ....... not saying Thomas is not a true wideout.

Lol I don't know brother is rather have wuality if quantity and I honestly think Michael Thomas is not just a roster filler or stop gap but think he really is going to be the real deal!

Lol wth you think Snead couldn't pull this off or something similar?

I like your Draft!! With 'ONE!' exception, Put SS - Miles Killebrew - Southern Utah in, in place of CB - Cyrus Jones, and it will be PERFECT!! JMHO :mrburnsevil:

Thankyou Dave! I honestly don't know turd about Killbrew but I love his last name! Lol

I didn't even consider Safety since at the time I did this mock it sounded like Donte Whitner was going to be in the horns! I still hope this is the case TBH, even so I love Christian Bryant for a breakout year this year! He's going to pull a McLeod I'm telling you!

 

[Corbin]

Thank you all for taking time out of your day to respond or in @dieterbrock Brock's case laugh at my Mock Draft...! Lol (jerk)

 

[DaveFan'51]

Thankyou Dave! I honestly don't know turd about Killbrew but I love his last name! Lol

Briefly, Killebrew has the Highest SPARQ score of any SS - in the Draft (123.9) and he had a " Killer" Combine, 38.0 Vert./127 Inch Broad/4.18 in the shuttle/6.93 in the cone! And he has good size at 6 ft. 2/217. He has a Killer instinct, and loves to hit people! And he always seems to be around the Ball!
In other words he's a perfect fit for the Rams! Williams would love him! JMHO:mrburnsevil:

By your description he sounds like a player and a fit for our Rams! Plus he has a bad ass last name! Haha

I cant see Keenum bringing anything back in a trade. I think he was attractive to Denver at one point being he was a FA at the time, and had a relationship with Kubiak.
I like both players you suggested in the 4th, however if we aren't able to pull off another trade, the 2 4th rounders will be our 2nd and 3rd pick and should be WR IMO
I like the German kid but would hope we can get him as a UDFA

Just following Snead and Fisher in recent years I really think there is a chance Keenum might get dealt however that has been drastically reduced because of Bradford wanting a trade now. I wouldn't put it past Snead to get a nice trade done though! Hell even Foles just get get rid of that damn contract! Apprently Foles didn't even make the trip to LA for the players meeting since he's all mad! haha I'm interested to see what we do in a few days bro!

I was going to say that I read this morning that Bradford said he didn't want out but then I saw that he in fact does.

 

[Akrasian]

I can't see Keenum bringing back the first - if Denver had wanted that they could have signed him. Besides, that would likely bring SB instead.

Maybe their 2nd, more likely their third and maybe a late round pick in addition - and that only because of the coaching connection.

The Rams have already paid Foles his bonus money leaving only his base salary of $1,750,000 left to be paid. That's why teams would be interested in him as a backup. He has a $1mil roster bonus next year, but if he isn't on the roster the Rams don't pay it. He can be voided next year for $1mil dead money on the cap.

That sounds pretty secsy and tempting to me! I feel a 5th rounder maybe?!

 

[NERamsFan]

I can't see us getting rid of Keenum in any circumstances other than a first rounder coming back to us, which won't happen.

He is a great backup option on this team, and it has been reported that when talking qb's, Fish and Snead have kept the name Foles out of convo numerous times.. Something tells me he'll be the one to pack his bags should anyone be traded.

 

[JoeBo21]

stellar execution

 

[dieterbrock]

That sounds pretty secsy and tempting to me! I feel a 5th rounder maybe?!

Yup the money that teams will have to pay Foles, or the lacktherof is enticing.
Its the "what do we do if he has to actually play?" part that must makes teams nervous

I'd give Snead my first born if he would pull of a trade with Foles to the Whiners! :rolllaugh:

 

[Corbin]

This draft with Goff and Thomas would have been beast!!! Knew Thomas was going to be a beast and a half! To bad nobody on ROD liked him that year here!

I like your Draft!! With 'ONE!' exception, Put SS - Miles Killebrew - Southern Utah in, in place of CB - Cyrus Jones, and it will be PERFECT!! JMHO :mrburnsevil:

Miss me some Dave...
