I think Seattle took our pick. thought they should have addressed the line of scrimmage

W H A T????

Tutu Atwell????

Was he really BPA? We couldn't find a similar role player in later rounds or UDFA?

I get it - they're the experts but this one is a head scratcher....

DeSean will be lucky to even make the team, let alone play more than 5 games

For those who worried that D Jack would make the rams think twice about getting speed. This should make you feel better.

I’d have gone Terrence Marshall if the pick was a WR.

Let’s hope Atwell can be as productive as Akers. I wasn’t that happy with Akers either but he had some good games.

Yep, I thought it was going to be Marshall. Never saw this one coming. I don’t like 153lb receivers.

JOKE. They NEVER take LBs or Cs early. Had two studs right there in Bolton and Humphery.

Been saying for some time, McVay wants Offensive weapons and toys.

The big boys will come later.

Given who we draft early, I guess it’s best that we trade our picks for proven players.

He better be good!!!

Game changing speed and change of direction.. there will be no excuse for not being able to stretch a D.

I'm good with the concept of WR/KR... but I really thought someone like Jaelon Darden would've been available in the 4th.

This

I have no issue with picking a WR - even at #57 - but have BIG concerns about this one...at that spot....will see how the rest shakes out....

Yep, this looks like a miscalculation to me--apparently it was important for the McVay/Snead regime to make the Chiefs (who immediately snatched up Nick Bolton) happy... ;) :?

Agreed. You can get big boys in rounds 3-6. Hard to get playmakers after round 2.

At least they didn’t pass on Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, can’t believe he fell to 52.

Every year the same thing and every year the rams draft proves to be very good. I guess the rams track record doesn't speak for itself.
It like last year when some said why we draft Cam Akers. Why not this other rb ? Why a rb?

Cam was the best offensive player on the field at the end of last year.

I get questioning the extensions of young players, but the rams drafts been some of the best in the league the last few years.

We heard this last year at center, and none of those rookie centers graded higher than AB last year.

Definitely a reach in my opinion. As far as I can tell, he wasn’t projected to be in the top 3 rounds. Rarely do I hate the Rams picks. I hate this pick.

You mean like Cam Akers in the 2nd round last year?

I never judge this year’s players by last years players.

Hope Tutu is a home run.

Interesting, Meyers went before Creed

Chiefs are punking us Rams fans.

For those who say he was a reach. Todd McShay had him as high as 33 in one of his recent mocks

Most fans who’ve been paying attention to mock drafts and the Jacksonville Jaguars know by now that the team very well could snag a speed threat at receiver in the 2021 NFL Draft. With this in mind, ESPN’s Todd McShay slotted the Jags Louisville speedster Tutu Atwell at pick No. 33 in his latest mock draft, which caused mixed feelings from the fanbase.

Days after the mock, McShay further explained his top-4 selections for the Jags with picks 1, 25, 33, and 45. His comrade for many years, Mel Kiper Jr. joined him for the segment and also gave his analysis on Atwell — a player who he believes would help presumptive No. 1 pick, Trevor Lawrence, tremendously.

“When you watch him play, I know he’s below 160 [pounds] and is small, but he’s really explosive and is a touchdown waiting to happen in the open field,” said Kiper. “I think when you look at his hands and elusiveness when the ball is in his hands, he fits today’s game perfectly — the space game. That’s Tutu Atwell and that’s why he’d be a fear factor player down there in Jacksonville with Trevor Lawrence.”

Why do we constantly diminish the LB position while everyone else in the NFCW has beast LB cores....

look at what the really good franchises are doing:

ADDRESSING THE LINES OF SCRIMMAGE
KC/GB.....C SELECTIONS

Tutu highlights.

I think I can stop watching the draft now. :x

Yep, it looks like the McVay/Snead regime blew this selection--he looks like Tavon Austin II, only even smaller... ;) :? :|

Chiefs are a smart organization. Went out and got as much O Line help as possible in free agency then keeps drafting it in the 2nd rd

Dick84 wrote: ↑April 30th, 2021, 6:29 pm As far as being small? How big is the guy who won the Heisman and went in the top 10?

so now you are comparing Devonte Smith who is 6'0 and 170lbs to Tutu who is 5'9 155...........really???

Dick84 wrote: ↑April 30th, 2021, 6:29 pm As far as being small? How big is the guy who won the Heisman and went in the top 10?

Devonta Smith is 6’1

Tu Tu size is similar to Marquise/Hollywood Brown who was 5-9 166 when drafted by the Ravens.

Tampa taking Brady’s backup. If he doesn’t play, they’ll hype him up like Jimmy G and flip him for a 1st down the road
