A new look in the WR room will pay dividends for Stafford...
There has been some early chatter throughout the Los Angeles Rams OTAs and at the start of minicamp of players making impressions on the coaching staff. Sean McVay recently spoke to J.B. Long and the media about players performances and who has caught the coaching staff’s eyes so far.
Its still very early and Sean McVay is typically not the type of coach to throw players under the bus, but rather praise efforts and their aptitude. But after reading the tea leaves, let’s buy or sell stock for...

It’s not about both quarterbacks winning a Super Bowl
Hall of Fame quarterback Steve Young completed an interview with Rich Eisen last week, and something he said about Matthew Stafford and Aaron Rodgers has been sticking with me. Young explained to Eisen that Stafford and Rodgers are arguably the last of their kind at the quarterback position, and both players can continue to leverage that experience into interest and ultimately money.
Said Young,
“For people who learned in a sophisticated era, it just makes it that much more profitable, and that’s why those guys and Aaron’s the last one...I...

There are rumors that the Los Angeles Rams could add Jalen Ramsey, but there is also a potential chance that the Los Angeles Rams roll with who they have, and are fine with it. I am excited for the potential of this season for the Rams, but in a passing league the secondary matters a lot, so hopefully the Rams know what they are doing on that front.
It’s Saturday, my hope is you had a great Friday. Please comment on whatever you want and thanks for checking out Turf Show Times!...

Offensive tackle and corner are still major concerns for Rams in 2025
It’s clear the Los Angeles Rams have Super Bowl expectations in 2025.
They renewed their commitment to Matthew Stafford this offseason, even though around the time of the NFL scouting combine it seemed they could possibly ship the veteran to the New York Giants or Las Vegas Raiders.
Still, if the Rams are going to get where they want to get this season, they will need to thread a needle at a couple weaker areas on their roster. This includes both offensive tackle and cornerback, according to [Gary...

The L.A. Rams have 2 shots at a first round QB and Arch Manning is already the biggest name in the draft
We have a long ways to go before making any possible connections between the L.A. Rams and Texas quarterback Arch Manning, but there are two narratives going on that deserve a little bit more attention and need to be brought down to earth:
Although I agree that Manning could have good reason to...

Complete with depth chart and practice squad
With the conclusion of the Los Angeles Rams mandatory mini-camp, L.A. wraps up their spring Organized Team Activities. The Rams 90-man roster will reconvene For Day 1 of official training camp on July 22. While it’s much too early in the process for coaches to pencil in the opening roster, there’s no time like the present for fans and sports blogger’s to speculate.
With that in mind, here’s my way-to-early roster/depth chart projections.
Locks - Matthew Stafford, Jimmy Garapollo
Practice squad - Stetson Bennett
I would expect to see the...

We know a writer’s name because they are good at it, and Albert Breer is pretty darn good at it. He used the idea of cornerbacks in today’s NFL being speed bumps not stops signs and I am here for it (did he take that line from some inside the Rams? Whos to say?).
“In a recent Sports Illustrated mailbag, insider Albert Breer underscored this shift. While acknowledging the team’s mix of “reclamation projects” in Ahkello...

Taylor was an offensive guru on par with McVay, only he never got his chance in the spotlight
Lionel Taylor was Sean McVay before the L.A. Rams coach came along, only the league wasn’t ready to see it.
When thinking about the 1979 Rams, Lionel Taylor is probably the last person you think of. That is not surprising to anyone familiar with Taylor’s story. However, his offensive acumen and leadership skills were instrumental to the Rams’ first Super Bowl appearance.
Taylor began his coaching career with the Pittsburgh Steelers from 1970-76 at the height of the franchise’s dynasty. He was...

Here are five things we learned from Rams OTAs and minicamp
The Los Angeles Rams wrapped up minicamp in Hawai’i on Wednesday. With the conclusion of minicamp, the Rams will now break until July 22 when they begin training camp. While the pads won’t come on until later in the summer, there was still plenty to learn. Here is a quick look at several things we learned and some takeaways from OTAs and minicamp.
Last season, the Rams took a gamble when they claimed former first round cornerback Emmanuel...

Here are five players that the Rams should consider from the UFL heading into training camp?
Over the past couple of years, the UFL has been a good opportunity for young players looking for an opportunity to put out strong tape for NFL teams and earn a tryout. Last year, 21 players who were in the UFL in 2024 made an NFL roster or practice squad. Kicker Jake Bates and defensive lineman Jalen Redmond were two of the best examples. While the Los Angeles Rams didn’t explore the pipeline last season, there are a few players that could be worth...

Terrance Ferguson may not only someday replace Tyler Higbee as the Los Angeles Rams’ starting tight end, but he has a chance to flourish in Sean McVay’s offense. Could he actually be a contender for Offensive Rookie of the Year?
I doubt it, because it’s likely it goes to a quarterback or a running back, but hey you never know until you know, and Ferguson certainly has a chance as much as any other tight end drafted this year.
I finally have a few (not just a couple) days off from my...
