The Los Angeles Rams used their first pick Antworten

THOUSAND OAKS Tony Pollard Jersey , Calif. (AP) — Saturday to grab a potential starter up front on their defense, and they used their last pick on a guy from Last Chance U.The NFC champions made their sixth trade of the draft in the morning, moving up for defensive tackle Greg Gaines in the fourth round. Coach Sean McVay said the Washington product could be the replacement for Ndamukong Suh, the imposing nose tackle on Los Angeles’ Super Bowl team.And with the 251st overall pick at the back of the seventh round, the Rams chose linebacker Dakota Allen. The Texas Tech product is better known from his time on the Netflix reality show “Last Chance U.,” which chronicled his football comeback through community college after a burglary charge in 2016.After emerging from the three-day draft hungry and tired from what he described as accidental intermittent fasting, general manager Les Snead felt the Rams had addressed their most pressing needs.“The first priority was to try to figure out how we could … draft Gaines to fill the nose tackle-type spot in our base defense,” Snead said of Saturday’s work. “And then from there, it was, ‘OK Noah Fant Jersey , where can we find players who can help their position coach as well as Bones (special teams coordinator John Fassel)?'”Gaines, who grew up in nearby La Habra, seems likely to get the chance to emerge from training camp as the starting nose tackle for the Rams, who are expecting Suh to leave as a free agent. Gaines was the second Washington defensive player drafted by the Rams, joining second-round pick Taylor Rapp.“I’ve watched Aaron Donald a lot on film and studied a lot of his techniques,” Gaines said of the Rams’ All-Pro superstar. “It’s going to be amazing to learn from him firsthand. I think he’s going to really help me improve as a player.”Allen’s career with the Red Raiders was derailed by his arrest, but Texas Tech ultimately welcomed him back to the program. The Rams voiced no concerns about Allen’s character after a single misstep.“There were people at Texas Tech who definitely fought for him to get a second chance, based on who he was,” Snead said. “Great phone call. I think it was one of our favorites, because you could tell he was definitely appreciative to get this opportunity.”The Rams’ other Saturday selections were Wisconsin offensive tackle David Edwards and Penn State safety Nick Scott.WHO THEY GOTAlong with Gaines and Allen http://www.broncosauthorizedshops.com/authentic-dalton-risner-jersey , the Rams chose three defensive backs and two offensive linemen with their eight picks, adding depth at perceived areas of need and on special teams. They made their biggest splash in the third round by choosing running back Darrell Henderson.SURPRISE MOVEThe Rams raised eyebrows by using a relatively high pick on Henderson, an elite ball carrier from Memphis. His high placement in the draft strongly indicated he’ll get carries that would have gone to Gurley, one of the busiest players in the league over his first four seasons. But McVay insists the Rams aren’t worried about Gurley’s left knee, which slowed him late last season. McVay envisions Henderson as a complementary, change-of-pace back who will allow Los Angeles’ offensive mastermind to add new wrinkles to his scheme.HOW THEY DIDMost observers thought the Rams would attempt to land a higher-profile defensive lineman with an earlier pick, but Gaines is a solid prospect — and one the Rams clearly favored after watching him in the Senior Bowl. While Gaines probably has the best chance to be a rookie starter out of the Rams’ eight picks, the NFC champs are still confident they got depth for an already solid roster. “That’s a credit to where we are, going into our third year,” McVay said. “There’s a vision for all eight of these guys and how they fit within the framework of our roster.”WHAT’S NEXT?The Rams must decide whether Gaines is ready to start right away. Two vacant starting jobs remain on the offensive line Drew Lock Jersey , but in-house candidates Joseph Noteboom and Brian Allen are the front-runners after spending last season as rookie backups. Los Angeles likely could use another inside linebacker. McVay will have plenty of time to implement his plans for Henderson as well. CINCINNATI (AP) — Marvin Lewis went to sit in his chair and realized someone had lowered it. The chair didn’t cooperate as he struggled to get it to a comfortable level.“I guess that’s what happens when you get beat up,” the Bengals coach joked.Beat up, and then some.The Bengals unraveled in prime time yet again, playing their worst game on the Sunday night stage. A 45-10 loss at Kansas City was the second-most-lopsided during Lewis’ 16 seasons in Cincinnati, surpassed only by a game in which they rested starters to get ready for the playoffs.There was a lot at stake in this one: national recognition and first place in the AFC North. The game was flexed from an afternoon slot to Sunday night so fans nationwide could see a pair of up-and-coming teams in an offensive showdown.Instead, the Bengals (4-3) were dominated in every respect as millions watched.“That’s when your pride gets affected,” receiver Tyler Boyd said Monday. “That hurts more than anything.”For the first time this season, the Bengals are looking up in the standings. Pittsburgh (3-2-1) leads the division by percentage points. Much of the Bengals’ momentum from a 4-1 start has been wasted by another last-second home loss to the Steelers and a blowout at Kansas City in consecutive weeks.Cincinnati has lost nine straight on Sunday night, when it’s 3-16 overall. The Bengals’ last such win was over the Dolphins in 2004. They’re 6-15 in prime-time games since 2011, when Andy Dalton and A.J. Green arrived — 0-6 on Sunday night http://www.broncosauthorizedshops.com/authentic-dre_mont-jones-jersey , 2-5 on Monday night, 4-3 on Thursday night and 0-1 on Saturday night.Back on the big stage, they missed tackles , botched coverages, missed blocks, messed up a fake punt and had an interception returned for a touchdown . They struggled to get even the simple things done right.“This one’s going to be hard to swallow just because it was in front of everyone,” safety Jessie Bates said. “Everyone was watching.”The Bengals are trying to escape their history of meltdowns in big games. They haven’t won a playoff game since the 1990 season, the sixth-longest streak of futility in NFL history. Lewis is 0-7 in the playoffs, the worst mark for a head coach.They had a chance to end that Sunday night streak. Instead, they gave viewers reason to tune out early in the third quarter.For one night T.J. Hockenson Jersey , it was a Bengals rerun.“It’s a bad look for the whole team to see this happen,” linebacker Preston Brown said. “It’s such a big score difference. You never want to go out there and get blown out on a Sunday night, (especially) when it’s been something we’ve been waiting to show the whole league what we can do.”It was their sixth loss of at least 30 points during Lewis’ 16-year tenure. Their worst loss over that time was a 37-0 defeat against the Jets in 2009, when they rested regulars for the final regular-season game knowing they’d play the Jets again in the playoffs the following week. They lost that one, too.They lost 37-3 at Kansas City in the final game of the 2005 season, when they had wrapped up the division title and were getting ready to play the Steelers in the first round.The Bengals lost 35-3 at Indianapolis in 2008. They’ve had a pair of 31-point losses: 44-13 at Baltimore in the 2012 season opener and 34-3 against Baltimore in 2008.They host Tampa Bay (3-3) on Sunday before heading into their bye week. Four of their next five games are at home.
