Probably because he was another one of those "he was terrible last year because he wasn't in his natural position, not because he's bad" players. Played FS for the Rams in 2022, was terrible, but played SS during the playoffs for the Rams SB win in the 2021 season.

As for the poll, I feel like Bell is the answer here. The defense is not good, the run defense is particularly putrid. Swapping out Scott for Bell can only help there.

Perine is a 28-year-old RB going at 3.7ypc, and he's declined his YPC pretty sharply each of the last 3 years. He's also lost a fumble in each of the last 2 weeks despite only touching the ball 12 times.

TE is a huge need, but Hurst isn't doing much. His yards per catch has dropped again, the 5th year in a row. His yards after the catch per reception has dropped again, the 5th year in a row. I really think he's just kind of burning out. Same reason I didn't want to keep him in FA when I knew he would get paid a decent amount. (Though I expected them to sign or draft someone better than Irv Smith Jr to replace him.)


I'm actually shocked there were so many Perine votes.
