Everything is sunnier within L. A., especially in the offseason.
With the Los Angeles Rams throwing off their spring workout routines Monday, second-year quarterback Jared Goff can be optimistic about his team's probability of competing in 2017.
"I think we're a whole lot closer to where you should be than people may well think, " Goff told reporters. "We got the participants. We got the natural talent. We got all the pieces we start to use. It's just about placing it together now. "
The biggest change this offseason had the hiring of NFL 17 Coins xbox one instructor Sean McVay, who is tasked with guiding the No. 1 overall pick with 2016 past his rookie-year battles.
Coming off a 4-12 time of year, the Rams overhauled the actual roster. The biggest addition to aiding Goff was posting veteran left tackle Phil Whitworth. One of the ideal pass blocking tackles inside the NFL, Whitworth will immediately update Goff's blindside protection. Reshuffling the offensive line is a boon to one on the worst blocking groups in the NFL last season. L. A. also added center Bob Sullivan, receiver Robert Woods and also running back Lance Dunbar upon offense.
On defense the Rams added pass rusher Connor Barwin, a better fit in Wade Phillips' scheme. L. A. also signed defensive back Kayvon Webster from Colorado and slot corner Nickell Robey-Coleman.
The Rams still very own many weakness entering this draft later this thirty days -- April 27-29 inside Philadelphia -- but Goff put to words the optimism within the building that L. A. is leaving the "7-9 bull----" a long time behind.
