No variation! Sad

Is this not the NFL laying the groundwork for a possible London franchise?  First step: establish a "home team" for the one-off London games, second step: permanently base the team there?
Report d13phe January 21, 2012 11:19 AM GMT
think you maybe right

The rams ain't so bad and have a high draft pick

They won't but would love to see them draft RG3, a game changing QB

They will probably draft blackmon who is a ridiculous WR

should get 2 other 'big' teams, like the saints or maybe da bears in 2013 and dallas or the g men in 14

Bradford has the stuff, he's just injury prone. They don't need RG3, or Luck for that matter. They need alot of other positions upgraded before QB.
Report d13phe January 21, 2012 11:49 AM GMT
They obviously won't draft a QB but RG3 looks like he could be an upgrade on Newton and look what he has done to Carolina

Surely worth thinking about

Yeah I'd trade Bradford
Report HowieTheRookie. January 22, 2012 10:57 AM GMT
Me too, I didn't think that highly of him in the college games I saw and think he's been average at best in the NFL. 
They seem to rave about him in the States and I just don't get itConfused

I think its a good idea to try to establish a regular team, but they Rams need a marquee player for the fans to get behind, and that's not Bradford.

not it's not, it's steven jackson
Report GoBallistic January 22, 2012 12:39 PM GMT
I'd be tempted to trade Bradford as well (especially when you're sat on the #2 pick) but that's going to be difficult for the Rams having invested so much money in him and difficult for a new head coach when he's not had a chance to work with him

tbf if they pick blackmom they will have a franchise WR

then bardford has no excuses

if he bombs again they could have a look at barkley in the next draft

brandon lloyd's no mug either

'success' should be a lot easier for fisher in st louis than it would have been in miami
Report d13phe January 22, 2012 1:10 PM GMT
how long did they sign lloyd for?

he could have a huge year if they had a 2 cover WR like Blackmom

Lloyd is a FA...likely to Pats and back with josh mcdaniels next year with Ocho and Branch probably out...
Highly doubt the London franchise. I believe Rams will be back in LA and have one "home game" in London every year.

The dumbest decision in NFL history

That is the end of NFL hore for sure

by next year will be 50k fans then 30 the following year like the Monarchs

Fukkin idiot decision made by a muppett

I suspect Kroenke's grand scheme is to see if they can establish a fan base in the UK so that they to the ultimate team swap.  The St Louis NFL team can come to London and the Gooners can f*ck off to Missouri.

I amazed that so many would trade Bradford. He has the tools to be a very decent QB IMO but the protection has been abysmal - always makes it very difficult for a rookie. Rams need to draft for the OL this year and I expect to see a much better season from Bradford and the Rams too.
Report d13phe January 22, 2012 9:14 PM GMT
i dont think bradord is that bad but when a talent like Luck or RG3 comes up can you afford not to take him?
Report Glossy January 22, 2012 9:16 PM GMT
But then you are back to square 1 with a rookie QB getting rushed and beat up time after time. You end up writing off yet another season.
Report d13phe January 22, 2012 9:20 PM GMT
RG3 can handle a poor OL

his running game gives another dimension
Report Glossy January 22, 2012 9:23 PM GMT
He can handle that in the college game, for sure. Whether he can against an NFL rush is something different altogether.

Just not sure that Bradford has done badly enough to completely alter the plan for the franchise.
Report d13phe January 22, 2012 9:25 PM GMT
i know what your saying and i think they should draft blackmom

that said RG3 will be worth thinking about when you see Newton's success
Report Glossy January 22, 2012 9:32 PM GMT
They should go all out to either draft Blackmon or Matt Kalil IMO. Kalil would make hell of a difference to that offense.
Report Off the toe January 22, 2012 11:07 PM GMT
I agree Glossy...Bradford is the prototype pocket passer that wins championships...

Newton, Tebow, Vick types don't.
