In a contract year too I agree he is better than that, but maybe have somebody like Joseph next to him has hurt him.
Didn't play like that next to Saffold.

God the offensive line is still a mess hopefully next year a few more draft picks they can finally sure up the unit...Not sure if Barksdale is going to be part of the plan.
Same. It scares me to make another hole on this team(specifically O-line) by letting him go, though. He played a lot better last year, if my memory serves me. He wasn't lights out or anything but he was plenty serviceable. This year....I don't know, which makes me wonder, like others, if it has to do with Joseph or even Wells.
And everyone else.Certainly can't help much, but Joseph must suck on an epic scale if he's dragging down both Barksdale AND Wells.
Yeah, probably did something during the scuffle that Fisher didn't like. Fish is a bit confusing sometimes.Fisher throws a player out of practice over a scuffle?. Seems like there is a lot more to this story. Since when does Fisher have a problem with a player scuffling?
Merry Christmas Les! :banana: :cheers: :seizure:LesBaker liking his Christmas present:
This made me hard.
OT is supposed to be the strength of this draft. I just wonder if Barksdale would want to switch to OG seeing as he's a FA?
As far as Saffold is concerned I've always preferred him at RG! I think he's better their!Didn't play like that next to Saffold.
Pretty grim newsWell most know how I feel about ORT Barksdale for a long while now. The flunking out with the Raiders was due to their Zone Blocking scheme which JB proved he can not function in. So his options as to where he will look for employment is not that good. Rams clearly know JB can not play OLT in the NFL, so he is not a legit candidate for any reserve SWING reserve OT spot on any NFL roster. JB played DL when he arrived @ LSU and switched early to ORT post until his last yr when LSU need him to play OLT. JB has Never played any interior OL post. Barksdale has played next to Harvey Dahl, Shelley Smith, Rodger Saffold & as of late Davin Joseph. I have always thought that JB out played Saffold for the ORT starting post, but I am having my doubts that the Rams just needed Saffold @ ORG in the worse way thus JB was given the starting post. JB has not gotten better since then & may have simply regressed.
Rams are already is a real tight spot @ ORG & OC positions. The Rams best OL'er Saffold will go under the knife & bone grinder here shortly no telling how long it will take to reconstruct that left shoulder that has been damaged for a long time now. So the Rams could possible be in trouble @ both OG posts early in TC & pre season.
