The Rams just signed Bort Bortles (thanks Nately), so Sean Mannion is likely to move on. Would make for a perfect backup considering the time he spent under Zac Taylor in LA. Wouldn't be surprised if we make a move there.

The numbers weren't good, but he was playing with backups.

In 4 seasons with the Rams, Sean Mannion scored 5 fantasy points. He's got fantastic physical stats, but 0 TDs, even as a backup, in 4 years? Can we get Dan LeFevour's agent on the phone, please?

Arm isn’t the best either, especially when factored against his size. I’d rather see Stidham or Grier signed in the mid rounds.

I'm still holding out hope for AJ McCarron. Our new OC was his QB coach last year.
NTM, he came within a minute and some seconds of winning the 1st playoff game in 25 years (against the pud jerkers from Shittsburgh to boot)!!

He’d at least be good to sign for TC. It helps the players learn a new playbook if there are teammates that have experienced it.

That's why I was thinking we'd bring him in. It's funny, I don't think we've pursued any former rams coaches or players. We didn't hire Taylor because he was a good interim OC in Miami.

No, we hired him because everyone wants their own Sean McVay...that's the reason Kingsbury got the job in Arizona, because he's friends with McVay. Taylor just happened to be on McVay's staff so we hired him, because obviously he's the true offensive genius from that coaching staff.

We hired the guy because he was around the Rams and Sean McVay. So then he brings in strictly friends from the Dolphins and UC. Neither were successful teams.

I don't really know much about him but it can't be that hard to find an upgrade to Driskel.
