The Rams' 2023 season feels like a gamble in its own. They're going to roster a boat load of rookies/undrafted free agents and expect their players who've been in the system for 2-3 years to step up significantly. Vegas only has the Rams listed as favorites in 5 of their 17 games regular season games, and two of them are against the Cardinals. But what about the following: Rams to make the Playoffs? Aaron Donald to win his 4th DPOY, making him the only player in league history to do so? Cooper Kupp to lead the league in receiving yards? How about the odds on MVP of the league: and where does M ..read more

The Rams' 2023 schedule was released yesterday, and it's considered to be somewhat difficult after the Rams finished in 3rd place in the NFC West last season. 4 of their first 5 matchups are against playoff teams and are only slated to play in two prime time games, which is the same amount as: Carolina, Tampa, Cleveland and Tennessee. We took the time to go through each opponent, inclusive of their performance in 2022, how they've managed so far in free agency/the 2023 draft, and their expected win/loss totals. From there, we determined a final record prediction that is most likely dependent o ..read more

The Rams' 2023 draft class will certainly be one to remember -- even if it's just for the fact that they made a total of 11 picks on Day 3. With a total of 14 picks after trading back four times and trading up once, the Rams came away with some really good value in later rounds, and definitely opted towards finding foundational players/building the roster inside to outside vs. risking top picks on skill players (like they have done in the past). We'll have to see how some of these players look once they're on the field with Aaron Donald, Matthew Stafford and Cooper Kupp, but we have a lot of c ..read more

Our 3rd and final mock draft is LIVE with only 2 days left before the #nfldraft! We came away with 13 total players after trading back with the Carolina Panthers to get into the 4th round and stockpile more later round picks, featuring big names like: Felix Anudike-Uzomah, Tank Dell and Payne Durham. With this being the final mock, we tried to compile a mix of players that would check off BOTH boxes, coming off our latest episode where we featured both the Shiny Toy and Future Core draft methodologies. Knowing the Rams, a trade back and focus on offensive skills players are almost a given. But ..read more

Allen Robinson was traded earlier this week and the Rams will take on a majority of his salary for next year and only a 7th-round pick swap in return. It's considered to be a really bad free agent signing (OTC calls it one of the worst) and then, a day later, we find out Jalen Ramsey would've re-structured his deal with the Rams (per a deleted tweet of his). Additionally, with the 2023 NFL Draft only a week away, we dug into the big board and produced TWO mock drafts, one of which is called "Shiny Toy" (heavily focused on offensive skill players early) and the other is "Future Core", which is ..read more

Our very first mock draft(s) are live within this episode, featuring what we know about who the Rams have already met with (either virtually or in-person) and how the Rams should go about prioritizing as they're working their way through the draft board. We also put together some hypothetical trades that we could see before/during the draft which could bridge the Rams' rather large draft gap in between picks 77 and 167. With only 17 days to go until the draft, the Rams really have to start focusing in on who it is they want to take, and if/when that specific player will be available once they ..read more

The Rams are in a solid position when it comes to setting themselves up for 2024. But where does that leave them in 2023? Well, for starters, they need to really execute on the upcoming draft. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being overly prepared, flooding your big board with talent and drafting players that can help mold the state of your franchise for the next 4+ years. Additionally, as this big board continues to be carved out, there are a really good amount of late round steals that the Rams could execute on if they play their cards right late in the draft. And in that situation, wi ..read more

Your suggestions were heard via Twitter, and we listened (for the most part). As a result, a Rams Brothers Big Board was born -- the first ever of its kind, and it's packed with insight. Once the two of us really started putting our heads together and started taking into consideration how many defensive players the Rams have recently lost, coupled with players they've already had a chance to meet with and some of the other characteristics they like to focus on in the draft, the board started coming together fairly quickly. And with that, we pieced together a long list of players that we'd like ..read more

The Rams' front office has been very forthcoming of the Rams' recent transactions. Les Snead addressed the Rams' media team 3 weeks ago to lay out the blueprint for 2023-2025, and Kevin Demoff followed up over the weekend with a letter to all Rams fans, addressing the recent departures, the organizations mentality over the past 6+ years, and their willingness to fight for long-term, sustainable success after winning a Super Bowl in their home stadium. Some believe it's admirable and trust the organizations decision-making, and others are overly cautious of what's to come. Additionally, we cove ..read more

The Rams have lost almost everyone to free agency, with the exception of Coleman Shelton. The others (Matt Gay, Nick Scott, Greg Gaines, Baker Mayfield, Matt Orzech, etc.) have found new homes across the league -- and the Rams aren't financially in a position to bring any of their main defensive talent back in 2023. With that being the case, the Rams need to nail the draft in 2023, with a HEAVY focus on EDGE and interior defensive line. One way to incentivize Aaron Donald to stick around (outside of the $60MM+ the Rams owe him over the next two years) is to surround him with young talent. See ..read more
