Posh Ram Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Some decent moves for Chargers so far, nothing too surprising like some of these trades. Jacoby Jones, Orlando Franklin coming in as free agents. Best news we've had is that Flowers has signed a new deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r4derby Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Quite why Eagles are letting Foles go to STLRams is beyond me though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralRam Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I'm loving that Chip is literally destroying the Eagles. First McCoy, Maclin and now Foles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal is a Ram Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 DeMarco Murray though.. surprised Cowgirls let him go so easily.I've seen rumour that its Foles and conditional 1st pick for 2016 for Sam Bradford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Mills Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 I have no idea what any of you are on about in this sport consisting of throwing an egg and then resting for 5 minutes whilst men hit their heads together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal is a Ram Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 It's currently something akin to the transfer window in football at the minute - free agents are finding new teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davenportram Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 the draft is where they pick players from the college teams. The worst teams get early picks. picks can be traded for other picks or players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r4derby Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Do they buy players off each other like in the football transfer window? And also, what's the draft thing all about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. P Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Draft just means the sooner a youngster gets picked the more he gets paid! Doesn't mean he's going to be any good! Sherman & Brady are one of many examples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 the draft isn't just about ability its about need. Yes you want the best you can get in each position but often its better to draft the position you need first over the best available player.

Posh Ram Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Well Chargers still have a couple of needs to address. Orlando Franklin shores up the O-Line, replacing the awful Chad Rhinehart - but we still need either a RT, G or C, depending on where Fluker and Watt end up playing. Most preferable here would be to take a tackle in the second round. A name that comes up commonly amongst our fans is Jake Fisher.We haven't lost any defensive linemen, but we haven't gained any either. We need to improve on a defence which was crap against the run last year. Pleased we didn't splash the cash on Suh, but would have liked somebody solid like Jared Odrick or Pot Roast. We also need to add a back-up OLB now that Freeney/Johnson have gone.We also lack a good RB after Mathews went to Eagles (who now have two injury-prone backs). Hope we draft one in the third. Offensive line is the most important thing in whether a RB does well or not.Finally we need a receiver. Rivers is a good quarterback, and with time on the ball, can make average WRs look good, à la Brady. That being said, we have an intriguing prospect in Dontrelle Inman who came in at the end of the year and did pretty well.So we're basically the same as last year, and last year's team didn't do well enough. I'd like to see more from Telesco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posh Ram Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I think personally if Chargers have a good draft, no reason cannot be right there for a playoff spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmericanRam Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Yeah I agree, but at the same time I feel if we'd been more proactive, we could be right there for a playoff spot already, and then a good draft might push us into contender territory.

Mr. P Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Texans sign Vince Wilfork! That's Watt, Clowney & Wilfork on the same D-Line! Crikey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
