Is this supposed to be based off what should they do or what will they do?

[Walter]

What they will do.

[BennyThomas]

Will be Bradford i think.

[Leo Fender]

To me, this pick has to be a quarterback. Which one of them they go for is basically a toss up for me, but since Adam Schefter (a.k.a. the almighty God of NFL-knowledge) already has said that Bradford is the pick, Bradford gets the vote. Who knows though, it might come down to the annual mini golf tournament....

[piazzajordan2]

Wow we started this early this year...

I think they'll take Bradford. They should take Clausen, but all signs point to Bradford. Like they'll tell you on NFLN every week, "If Bradfords shoulder checks out, he'll be the pick". I am believing that now. Also, Schefter said they'll take him. And when is he wrong? Bradford will be the pick, Rams get their franchise quarterback.

[Arcade]

If not for Schefter outright saying that Bradford would be the pick, I'd have to predict they take Suh. It seems like an incredibly Rams thing to do.

[Blx]

I cannot imagine they not going for Bradford.

The Rams in the past have proven that they would rather go with the 'safe pick' in the draft and seem more keen on building their lines than getting a QB. Their last two selections were Chris Long, who was the consensus best overall player in that draft and Jason Smith, who was the consensus best player available. Just going off history, I would have to think they go for the safe route and opt for McCoy who is an elite talent and does not come with theknee trouble of Suh.

Finally remember: the draft would not be the draft without a crappy pick from the Rams, no matter how many A pluses Walt wants to give them.

[broncofan7]

If most of the Ram's front office wants any chance of keeping their job. They will select Sam Bradford. If not (who could blame them?) than Suh will be the pick.

[PaddyPatriot]

Schefter and Mayock say its Bradford and I had a feeling they would always come back to picking a QB. Sounds easy enough to me

[giantsfan6017]

The Rams can't have Keith Null as their starter again. The Rams need a QB, whether its Clausen or Bradford, but the Rams are leaning towards taking Bradford

[topazpilot]

SHOULD BE: Jimmy Clausen
WILL BE: Sam Bradford

Rams will continue to be the Rams and take a QB with questionable arm strength, injury history, and coming from a gimmicky spread offense. Do we really expect anything more from this franchise?

[lionaround]

Sam Bradford

[ChiBears56]

The reports that Bradford scored high on his Wonderlic test give the Rams another poor reason to think Bradford is a better prospect than Clausen

Wait, was it him or Curry? I forget now.

[pick6]

Hopefully the right person wins an mini-putt and the Rams end up picking a QB. I'm confused as to why everyone thinks that Bradford is THE PICK if the go with a QB. I think they should pick Clausen, which means that they'll do the opposite and go with Bradford!

[vikingfan173]

The Rams need to find a QB, **** whoever is the best player in the draft, if its not a QB how can you build your team w/o the most important, when it comes down to it I think they select bradford, considering there are "character" concerns over Clausen, which is BS considering missing an entire ****ing year trumps that IMO.

[Nintova]

As bad as the Rams are, they really can't make a mistake in the first round from a team aspect with any of the top 3 players. From a COACHING standpoint, however, they can completely screw the pooch. Either way they are hosed, they go with Bradford and then throw him to the wolves. Carr 2.0 will wear a Rams uni.

[Arcade]

Okay, there's a 65 point lead for Bradford. I think it's time to move on to the Lions.

[Vbsiena]

I know who everyone is going to vote for (Bradford). I am more excited to see which forum members make the cut for Walter's select quotes.

[piazzajordan2]

LOL who picked McCoy?

[piazzajordan2]

Me too. Also how many new users we're gonna get. I tryed so hard to get quoted last year when I first signed up but I failed lol

[mycarman]

The Rams need to take the best QB in the draft. One who is accurate, has great technique, great arm strength, good upside, good statistically, and who has experience under center. Too bad Washington is going to get that guy when the Rams actually take the guy who had his stats, accuracy, technique, and arm strength go unquestioned when he wasn't playing under center in college.

[mycarman]

Pop a joke, it'll help your odds

[emsmith12]

WOW! 69/75 goes Bradford! *This includes me*

The Rams HAVE TO do the right thing and draft a potential franchise qb one of these drafts right? Now that the end of that awful 6 year/$62.5 is one year closer to fading away forever, they can. Bradford has done everything right this pre-draft season to assure franchises that he still is the guy that potentially could have been selected ahead of Stafford last year, so he seems like the pick. Personally, I feel there are better players avail - but winning without a quarterback is rare (like a black stripper with blue eyes - 30 rock)

[Marlin5124]

Umm Walt has already proven that QB is the safer pick than DT. You don't know what your talking about. Check your facts...

[packman_jon]

What they should do? Draft Clausen

What they will do? Go with the "safe" pick and draft Bradford. The Rams improve from a being a joke to being mediocre if at most competitive

[Arcade]

What's the over/under on the number of boos in New York when the Rams play Ram football and draft Jason Pierre-Paul?

More like laughter.

[wraith36444]

LOL who picked McCoy?

I did.

[wraith36444]

People:

It is the Rams. There is a reason they have won a total of six games in the last three years and have an average draft position of 1.67. Even Matt Millen could not screw up the Lions that badly.

[wraith36444]

Umm Walt has already proven that QB is the safer pick than DT. You don't know what your talking about. Check your facts...

There is what the facts say and what is public perception. Those are two totally different things.

[mpg1995]

This is soooo obviously Bradford. I think its stupid because no QB has good enough intangibles to ever got top 5 but the Rams will make a mistake here and go Bradford. Jimmy Clausen sucks balls by the way. His intangibles suck so hard, do you know what I am saying?

[Arcade]

I don't even understand how people can say "his intangibles are bad". Isn't the point that they aren't tangible?

[wraith36444]

I think they are using intanglibles as anything that cannot be directly measured.

[mpg1995]

intangibles! intangibles! intangibles!!!!!!!!!

[Sean McG]

I'm with what I'm assuming is the consensus opinion on here, I think the Rams should take Clausen, but will take Bradford. So, obviously, I voted Bradford.

[wraith36444]

Gooo MCCOY!

[mpg1995]

Gooo MCCOY!

Colt McCoy FTW

[Arcade]

That's imbecilic. I could say Bradford has horrible intangibles if he's bad at convincing monkeys to go out with him.

[Arcade]

I'd better make more of an effort to get quoted. I've only been quoted once, for my Andy Reid joke. It made me happy in my man parts.

[miamidolphin4life]

And the Lions take Eric Berry with their next pick?

[Ckane138]

I say the Rams should and will take Bradford. It has to be a quarterback for obvious reasons, and with character/intangibles as well as level of competition being a question mark next to Clausen, Bradford's the number one guy.

[Vbsiena]

Yes I know what you are saying.

[wraith36444]

People really think that the Rams know what they are doing...

[miamidolphin4life]

I could've said Eric Berry

[twl221]

It should be Clausen, but I have to believe this pick will be Bradford.

[Colts Homer]

It will be Bradford but it should be Clausen. There's a reason why the Rams always have top 3 picks.

[piazzajordan2]

People:

I usually stick with the philosophy that teams eff up in the draft and what not, but there is no chance they take McCoy. I will send you 100 bucks by email if they do.

[giantsfan6017]

And the Lions take Eric Berry with their next pick?

tahts what i think they will do

[Dr.Dre]

Who the hell voted McCoy?

[Colts Homer]

Are we supposed to be doing this by who they SHOULD take or who they WILL take. I do not want to do it by who they will take. Boring.

[Colts Homer]

Who the hell voted McCoy?

Someone who was hitting the jenkem hard.

Read the link and it answered it for me. Screw it, I'm doing it by who they should take.

I did.

[mlangen]

after passing on a franchise qb in the last three drafts, its time the rams pick one in sam bradford. sure, picking one of the top two dt's or ot okung should be the pick, but the nfl is a franchise qb driven league. the rams only have themselves to blame for being the worst team in the league and need to develope the qb position.
