    I have read reports out there that say Newton is a terrible teamate and guys in his locker room are getting tired of his attitude. I think if he matures alittle more he has a chance to be one of the best dual threat guys ever. Steve Young is still the best in my book.

    Caleb you were right earlier all of this Michael Sam talk is getting ridiculous. I don't care if he likes men or women but I don't need to keep hearing it. Now he is crying he should have been picked in the first 3 rounds. He is not big enough, fast enough or strong enough to play on the defensive line. He will be lucky to make the team with the talent St Louis has. The real crying will start if he gets cut.

    Yeah I couldn't believe the Rams even picked him up as loaded as they are up front!

    It seems like Jeff Fisher wanted to be "that"guy.

    Couple of things from the draft.

    I'm happy with the Cowboys first two picks but wish Jerry would stop trading up and down in the draft. He gave Washington a 3rd just to move up 15 spots in the second round. You can still get great talent if you are patient and not waste a early pick. Those early picks are key, especially with Jerry's reputation of horrible drafts.

    Gruden has overtaken every analyst in the history of ESPN as the most annoying. Him and Skip Bayless are fighting over who get's to take Manziel out on a date.

    I'm also done with ESPN. Giving that much attention to a 7th round pick, then letting everyone watch those two "celebrate" was disturbing. IMO.

    There is a fair chance Sam doesn't even make the Ram's roster. He is small for a DE and slow for OLB. He was a high effort guy in college who might fit in as a situational/ special teams player in the NFL.

    He better figure out a way to contribute on special teams if he wants to make the team. If I had to guess the Rams will ride this publicity train as far as it will go and once its done so is Sam.
