biggame1190 not lovin Hull:
Its whatever. But I would like another LB to replace Hull as backup Middle (unless they would like Dunbar at that post).

The only thing Josh Hull has going for him is being the Jeff Fisher celebrity softball home run derby champion...And he lost that to another JAG camp body in Mike McNeill this season....The coaching staff has to know that he is only a so-so special teamer and has no upside as MLB and no versatility at OLB. Not to mention finished the season on IR numerous times.

I'm all for replacing Hull and Dunbar. I just think he's an upgrade over Spikes. He may only be a so so special teamer but I bet he's better than Spikes.

Are you saying you think Spikes has an upside? :lol:

I hope the Rams use a lot of their resources next year to address both the LB and Safety corps.

There's also another LB out there that I wouldn't mind signing. Wish I could remember his name darn it! :domg:

Replacing Dunbar?? O_O!

Just as long as he's not taking Jabara's spot.
I don't think he can take another rejection from the Rams.

You know, in 15 years that this guy's been playing, he's only had ONE winning season with a club? The 2004 Bills. The rest of the years he's played (with the Bengals, Bills, Eagles, 49ers, Chargers), his teams have been 8-8 or worse. Sometimes WAY worse.

Maybe he's jinxed. In which case, I don't want him here anymore.
In fact, he should be on the next bus outta there tonight.
Maybe he's due...

What..Who said Spikes has upside? I said its whatever, I don't care that we didn't offer Spikes. All I was suggesting is that we have another player replace Hull at LB, who has no upside and is truly the definition of a JAG and an injury riddled one at that.

You don't get me bro...Dunbar has played MLB in the past with the Saints and in college so if I had it my way Dunbar would be slotted as backup MLB in the very rare case that JL is out...This DOESNT mean Dunbar is benched or wont start OLB. Come on now...

Then one would hope one of the UDFAs or Sammy Brown or Jabarra Williams beats out Hull.

Honestly, Spikes is an upgrade over Hull if he's being slotted as the backup MLB.

Don't see the need. Hire him as a coach. Better yet, steal Mike Singletary as a LB coach, that man was an animal.

My bad Biggame. I could explain why I said that but it doesn't matter if i misread you. Sorry bud.

LosAngelesRams was responding to something I wrote and not to you.

I'd like to replace Hull too but worrying about replacing our back up LBs can wait until later IMO. :lol:
