Sheldon Richardson to Vikings.

So the Vikings, Rams and Eagles are going to go to war this season. Should be some fun games to watch.

I watched Berry come back from two different ACL's and Charles come back from a ACL AND DJ Come back from a ACL.

I'm not scared of PCL and LCL.

Berry hasn’t torn two ACLs

Saints are loaded too

Fine, ACL < Cancer

Everyone else is basically fighting for those two wildcard spots.

Barring some bullshit....your top 4 NFL playoff teams should be Eagles, Rams, Saints and Vikings.

Packers will be much better too. I like what they are doing.

I think Berry is likely to start the season at less than 100% given the way the other Chiefs Achilles injuries have gone.

Tyrann Mathieu really would make this defense work provided he avoided injury. We need someone like him so we don't tip our defense set. Sutton comes from Rex Ryan's Defense school of thought.

Exotic blitzes coupled with Zone Blitzing and Straight man Coverage. Tyrann Mathieu allows us to really not show our hand because he can cover TE/RB/WR.

But more than anything...... With Tyrann Mathieu we can focus on the trenches during the draft!

NT/G/OT/DE/OLB

I mean I guess Mathieu did make it through this past season without injury, it's possible at his age he'll fully recover with a free offseason and more time.

The Packers are right there, too, IMO.

Mike Pettine, Wilkerson and the return of Rodgers will be huge.

Plus, Gutekunst is already making waves, something Thompson refused to do during his entire tenure (which is also why he was fired).

BookMark

These two teams will not make the playoffs next year. I hate what the RAMS are doing..... and the Saints are in a tough division, and Drew is older plus they are not going to be as successful running the ball next year.

You hate the fact that the Rams now have probably the best secondary in the NFC, if not the NFL?

If the Rams don't make the playoffs (they will), who from the NFC West is your division winner?

you're on crack

Eagles
Rams
Vikings
Saints
Packers
49ers

Those are my 6 playoff teams in the NFC right now.

Seattle has sold off every impact player on that defense, San Fran might be decent but they aren't as good as the Rams and Arizona has no shot. The Rams will win that division and probably have it wrapped up by week 13

I won’t say I hate what the Rams are doing but one does have to wonder who is going to rush off the edges for them. They are also thin at WR now. Their #1 is Robert Woods.

Two CB's don't put the RAM's even close to best in NFL, good but who are their Safeties/Slot CB's? Better yet how did they address their LB spot?

Worse yet where will their pass rush come from? Who is going to stop the Run?

Division winner will be the 49er's (pains me to say this).

Cooper Kupp leaving?

Those other Chiefs also weren't Eri Berry

Holy crap

I guess you'd better do a Google search on LaMarcus Joyner.

Bookmark it homie, I'm not seeing any pass rush on the RAM's.... Not to mention no RUN STOPPING....

Wade Phillips Defense Year 2.......

McVay offense with tape on it YEAR 2.........

QB that I don't think is that amazing YEAR 2...........

Offensive line that is MEH..........

Lost their #2 edge rusher...........

Dude, Lamarcus Joyner is a S/slot CB along with Nickell Robey both of them are good, Kayvon Webster is their ****ing 4th CB and he has starting experience.

Aaron Donald is on that team, Michael Brockers is on that team. That defense is awesome.

The only question is Jared Goff.

No kidding.

They also have this guy named Todd Gurley.

Aaron Donald is only the best defensive player in the league but no pass rush or run stopping uh ok.

Yeah, that looks about right. The NFC West is going to be fun this year with the ascending Rams and 49ers.

The idea that the Giants are loading up to make a run is absurd when looking at the field.

Middle of the pack safety...... Not amazing.....

That's true, but I'm not sure it's all that important.

:facepalm:

You're really showing your ignorance in this thread.

Good grief.

Wrong, and they were 28th vs the run last year..... And 19th in yard given up. They lost Robert Quinn, and behind him they have just Barwin.

Want me to name all the better Safety's?

Dude, he just won DPOTY, and Joyner was the #3 S on PFF with a grade of 90.3.

It's a good thing the draft doesn't exist.....right?

Who gives a shit about yards?

The Rams had the highest scoring offense in the league and were 12th in points allowed.

Add in Talib and Peters to Wade's scheme and watch out.

Again PFF always has to be taken with a grain of salt. He played 12 games, I can name 7-10 better Safeties than him easy.

I'm not saying he isn't good, but he is not Elite/Amazing

Tripling down on stupid.

Nice.

You're not good at this

I agree the CB's are a upgrade from last year. Pass defense wasn't their issue tho.

FS with 3 interceptions in a 4 year career with a total of 22 PD's over 4 years....

Are you sure this is the hill you want to die on?

LMAO

Wade has been one of the best defensive minds in the NFL for more than 30 years.

So, teams didn't have "tape" on McVay's offense from Washington? Really?

27/7. Very effective.

Goff: 27/7.

Gurley: 2,093 yards from scrimmage. 19 TD's.

Gurley would have been the NFL's leading rusher had the Rams allowed him to play in Week 17 but sure, that offensive line is just "meh".

:facepalm:

They didn't "lose him". They chose to trade him for draft picks because they felt he was declining.

Which one would you like me to address first

LMAO

Go for it.

This is ****ing comedy gold.

The Rams are the most overrated team in football right now.

Watkins was a easily their best receiver who gave Kupp and Woods more opportunities to make plays. Woods and Krupp aren’t exactly premiere players.
Quinn was their 2nd best pass rusher who worked well with Donald. Now teams can exclusively double (even triple) Donald and not have to worry about much of anyone else.

I don’t believe in Joyner. He didn’t Have a single turnover until last year and the loss of the pass rush won’t help him.

We’ll have to see but I can really feel a 3 team battle with all of those teams hovering around 8-8 to 10-6.

I think that's a stretch but they're definitely the best team in the NFC West until proven otherwise.

I don't think anyone is putting them in the same stratosphere as the Eagles, Vikings or Saints, all of whom are clearly ahead of them in terms of their current programs, but it would be shocking to see them miss the playoffs.

Vikings are closing in on Richardson

Their d could be really good

I still wonder if they’d consider trading Danielle hunter

I agree the Rams don't look like anything special on paper. Sure, they have got a very nice secondary if Talib maintains his level of play They've got Aaron Donald and Gurley and Goff on offense but overall I don't feel like it is a really strong team.

can you guys take your pissing match to pms?

Cooper Kupp is not a #1 WR. LMAO

If he starts getting covered by top corners, he’s ****ed. ****ED. No more Sammy Watkins to assume that duty.

No way they're letting a guy go who had 12.5 sacks in 2016 and 7 sacks in 2017.

Chiefs | Thomas Rawls visiting Chiefs

Fri, 16 Mar 2018 06:32:05 -0700

Free-agent RB Thomas Rawls (Seahawks) is visiting the Kansas City Chiefs Friday, March 16.

Fantasy Tip: Rawls, while his fantasy balloon has all but popped, still has RB5 capability.

Year 1 in Wade Pillips Defense is always good. However what Wade Phillips lacks in LA that he has had anywhere else is a PASS RUSH. It didn't improve when they lost Robert Quinn.

But Wade has always given up more points "HISTORICALLY" year 2, than year 1.

Why would the tape of Washington players have any bearing on how he likes to use his players in LA. It's two completely different personel groups. So yeas, it does make a difference. Really?

Tell me what Goff did that was good? He sure can dump the ball off to his RB, but what else was he good at. Look at his QBR




Great season, who is their WR threat again?



Yeah......... They traded him......... So they don't have him anymore..... So that is a lose for the team.

That d is gonna have to get paid at some point

Maybe they don’t wanna pay him?

Packers
Panthers
49ers
Cowboys
Eagles
Vikings

Eagles won't win the division 2 years in a row.... It's a NFC East thing...

Lol ok

Just saying since 2004 same team hasn't won it back to back

Nice speculative post

:facepalm:

Good ****ing god.

No its not, its a ****ing fact.......

What will the Chiefs do at NT? They really need to fill that void before they sign anyone else IMO.

Bennie Logan?

Vet min + Draft

I wouldn't be surprised if they just go with Hamilton and a rookie at this point.

I disagree.

We were going after Wilkerson and Lotulelei apparently and had interest in Richardson. I am pretty sure Veach will sign a DL or trade for one. Same for a CB but in the end it might just be one or the other.

I guess another possibility could be a trade up to get our next Chris Jones around the top of the 2nd round but you can't draft a DT at the bottom of the 2nd round and expect him to provide you with quality snaps right from the start.

You have boosted the offense so much with the Watkins signing, you can't just be content with what the defense has now. You have to go all in whilst not mortgaging the future at the same time.

How much of the game do we spend in the base 3-4? We're in the nickel like 70% of the time.

Even in nickel we are typically in a 3-4 with a DB playing LB

only on long downs are we in a 2-4-5 set

Oh, bull ****ing shit.

You're outright predicting gloom and doom on a team that was #1 in scoring offense and #12 in scoring defense with a 2nd year QB.

Dumb as ****.

Book mark it, they will miss playoffs.

And it's a fact that Year 2 under Phillips is worse than year 1 HISTORICALLY

Bookmark your epic stupidity?

:facepalm:

The Rams could miss the playoffs this year but not for any of the reasons you mentioned.

Let the market lower Bennie Logan’s pricetag. I think what people hated about him was his price tag.

He was our best run stuffer last yearZ

And they could miss the playoffs for all the reasons I mentioned

Raiders signed LS Andrew DePaola, formerly of the Bears, to a four-year, $4.27 million contract.

The deal includes $875,000 guaranteed, and makes DePaola the league's highest-paid player who snaps the ball a longer distance than it is usually snapped. Rarely, if ever, do you see a team signing away a long snapper. The deal comes on the heels of the Raiders' blockbuster signing of FB Keith Smith, a converted linebacker. To date, new coach Jon Gruden seems to be pursuing a decidedly old school approach.

Vontaze Burfict is facing a 4-game suspension for violating the NFL’s Performance-Enhancing Drug policy, pending appeal, per Adam Schefter.

Raiders were about to trade for him LMAO

The Panthers announce CB Bashaud Breeland failed his physical and will not be signing with the team.

Free agent CB Phillip Gaines will visit the Colts on Sunday.

The Colts are looking to replace Rashaan Melvin, who is reportedly in contract discussions with the Raiders. Gaines is coming off a brutal year that saw him earn PFF's third-worst coverage grade out of 121 qualifiers at cornerback.

Wow. Breeland back on the market. Had an off-field injury but was said to have recovered.

ROFL

Jesus. Kind of glad Ballard took that job. So far it's between Colts and Ravens for worst start to the offseason.

With Bashaud Breeland, there was a non-football incident that occured recently, a source said. It was supposedly nothing that would hold up a deal. Guess it was,

Try to bring him in on the cheap?

I thought we might have went after breeland as a somewhat shaun smith guy.
