I'm not really sure what the thought process is. They could be seeing Brown as an add because he was basically hurt all of last year. They may think they have plenty of good young talent with guys like Vigil, Jefferson, and Evans and they just weren't coached properly. I don't think any of us thought Haslett was worth a crap. Personally, I would have passed on reupping Dennard(we were already pretty set at CB after signing Webb) or Uzomah(it's a stacked TE draft class) and put that money towards a solid LB.
1st... Its a passing league and if you were to stack any position... CB is one that is easily arguable.
2nd... What other TE did we have? We let Kroft walk. Eifert was re-signed after Uzomah. And, honestly, Uzomah would be my 1st string TE in 2019. Keep Eifert as a passing TE in specific formations. Let Uzomah block. People forget the Rams use TEs as blockers more often then not. Getting rid of every TE meant we were start over with a 3rd or 4th round pick... or skip LB/OL early.
CJ Mosley would have been a great LB pick... $17 million a year. But there are 2 LBs in this draft that will cost less than that over 4 years. With the 11th pick we can hopefully grab one of those LBs. And there is a lot of OL in the draft (plus the Rams used a lot of TE blocking formations)...
*Fisher is a TE on the Bills this year, I wonder what his season will look like
