NFL Draft

Two days ago was the NFL Draft, which is were all the college players go to the NFL.  The first two picks were pretty much already set, Jared Goff and Carson Wentz, but it was not sure who would go what pick.  It turned out that Jared Goff went first to the Los Angeles Rams and Carson Wentz went second to the Philadelphia Eagles .  Atfer the two quarterbacks got picked Joey Bosa a defensive end got picked onto the San Diego Chargers.  He stands at six feet and five inches, weighs 269 pounds, and came out of Ohio State.  The next pick is a running back Ezekiel Elliott again from Ohio State.  He is six feet tall and weighs 225 pounds, which should fit perfect for the last season struggling Dallas Cowboys.  The fifth pick in the draft was Jalen Ramsey a cornerback out of Florida State and went to the Jacksonville Jaguars.  He is six feet and one inch and weighs 209 pounds.  Two surprises to me is when Derrick Henry got picked to 45th overall to the Tennessee Titans.  This was a surprise because he won the Heisman Trophy last year.  Another surprise is that Conner Cook from Michigan State did not get picked.  He was for sure one of the best or maybe the best quarterback in the draft and left without a team.

NBA season recap

This week I will be doing my blog on the end of the NBA regular season and the beginning of the playoffs.  At the end of the regular season the Warriors finished with the record for most wins in s season going 73-9.  The Clippers finished four in the West with a record of 53-29.  The Sacramento Kings finished tenth in the conference with a record of 33-49.  Lastly the Los Angeles Lakers finished last in the Western conference with only 17 wins and 65 losses.  In Kobe's last game he had a total of 60 points and is the oldest player to score 60 and will probably stay the holder of that record.  Out of the four California teams only two made the playoffs the Warriors and the Clippers.  So far in the first round the Warriors are beating the Houston Rockets 3-1 in a seven game series although star Stephen Curry has had to battle through a an ankle injury and a knee sprain.  On the other had the Clippers are up 2-1 in a seven game series against the Portland Trailblazers and the most improved player CJ McCollum.

Rams Mock Draft

Today my blog will be about the possible draft picks for the new Los Angeles Rams.  If I was the general manager for the Rams I think it would be a smart decision to take a pro bowl leveled quarterback.  So far in the latest years the Rams haven't had the best quarterbacks and that is probably the main reason for their losses.  They have a strong halfback in Todd Gurley and Tre Mason.  The Rams also traded to get the number one overall pick in the 2016 draft so they have the best chance in a great player.  The two quarterbacks that have been on their mind are Carson Wentz from North Dakota State and Jared Goff from Cal state.  Carson Wentz stands at six feet and five inches with 237 pounds, compared to Jared Goff who is six feet and four inches with 215 pounds.  Both quarterbacks have a great height for a QB but Carson Wentz has more weight that will be better for taking hits.  Overall it is hard to say which player will be the number one overall pick and the next quarterback for the Los Angeles Rams.

Rams Schedule

After a tough 2015-16 season for the Rams they decided to move to LA. Today I am going to break down there new schedule for next year. First game will be in San Fransisco and probably not such an interesting game. In week two it'll be their first game regular season game in LA and will be against the Seattle Seahawks who won the Superbowl in 2015. The third week will probably be another uninteresting game in Tampa Bay. Week four will against the rising Arizona Cardinals and is a probable loss. The next three weeks will be  easy wins if played properly against the Bills, Lions, and Giants. The rest of the schedule is pretty decent except for week nine against the Panthers, and week 13 at the Patriots. Some key games will be week 15, 16, and 17, because they are all against their division and will be key games to make the playoffs and win that division.
