Huh?
Stafford thru for 5k yards and 41 TD in his 3rd season, Lawrence hasnt been anything close to that
I'm not disputing anything you put up, just simply posting their stats for more depth. My only comment is Lawrence hasn't been too shabby stat wise but too may INTs. Not many Staffords out there. Would be curious to see McVay coach Lawrence, could see his play elevate a bit. With that said, got to enjoy greats like Stafford, they don't come around often.

Lol, I love when folks use words like "depth" to make a point while completely ignoring context.
Stafford only played in 3 games in that 2nd year, but followed it up with his CB POY 2011 season that fully supplanted him as an upper tier QB. Lawrence? Still waiting
Context is key
 
Gosh, I don't think I wanna take one in the first. I would prefer to take a top OL or CB and draft a 2nd rounder who missed out by a few picks...he may have that chip needed on his shoulder.

I don't watch enough college ball anymore to give any good opinions....but Arch Manning sure looks like ass. Haha
I don't see us moving up for a QB in the draft unless Stafford retires or forces his way out. But I do think the Rams will prioritize the QB position.

What that ends up looking like comes down to how many of them declare and how the board falls. Because the Rams are unlikely to be picking up high. If it happens, great. But at this point it feels like their picks are likely to be a mid-first and late-first in combination. So if they take a QB it will be one of the perceived second tier types, who typically go off the board late first round when teams who need a QB but went BPA at the top dip back into round 1 to snag them, or when playoff teams take them to stash them on their depth charts.

I suppose if they absolutely love one of the QBs, and that QB has a chance to let's say slide to 5 range or so, then a move-up is possible. However they need a couple cornerstone positions that are best taken in round 1 in QB and LT (shutdown level CB, which we need, is best taken round 1 so that could be added to the list as well). And that's not to say QB is a need in the classic sense, where it's a catastrophe if you don't have it, because it is possible we still have Stafford. But I am certain that McVay wants a young QB to groom to replace Matt down the road. A succession plan as it were.

So ideally they would use both those picks to take shots on a couple different positions. That's my hope at least. I'd like to see the Green Bay approach here.
