Rams D Pickup (easy Schedule) Opinions? (1 Viewer)

[MooseCats]

I actually picked them up this week and I am seriously considering starting them over the Steelers D this week. The Steelers are playing Balt. and were blown out in their last meeting. The Rams are playing Arizona who may be without Kolb and an injured Wells. The Rams actually looked great last week and their upcoming schedule is relatively easy..Seattle x2, Arizona x2, San Fran. x2 (although an improved team). Am I crazy????

Added them and starting them over NYG Defense.

The Saints have a long and storied tradition of making mediocre players and teams look great for one afternoon.

Maybe the best thing going for the Rams is the Bradford/Lloyd connection could improve the offense.... which could improve the defense.

But still this is a team that was not scoring more than 9 points a game on average and which gave up 250+ to Murray 2 weeks ago. If it were not for Skelton starting I would have thought Wells would have been a great start today.

Rams Run Def is still abysmal.It depends on how thin your waiver wire is. Mine is incredibly thin (about 4 other defenses left), and Giants play the Patriots, which... ugh., so I think it's worth a risk in my unique perspective. Others may be in a similar situation.

Their schedule looks pretty good, although it looked better before the year started (which is why I grabbed them in the contest)

Cards, Browns, Seahwaks, Cards, 49ers, Seahawks, Bengals, Steelers, then 49ers again. Aside from Pittsburgh, none of these looked like offensive powerhouses. San Fran is stronger than anticipated.

Depending on scoring, the DEs can make up for their run game in FF.
