Rams’ final roster cuts include several recent draft picks

They began offseason workouts as the ultimate longshots, undrafted free agents trying to make a team that went to the Super Bowl the previous season. McVay said the decision to cut Franklin-Myers, a key rotational player last season, was a result of “not what John didn’t do, but what some other players did do.” Patrick made the team with outstanding play on special teams and as both an inside and outside linebacker. You don’t want to have any regrets.” Rams roster by position: Quarterbacks : Jared Goff, Blake Bortles Running backs : Todd Gurley, Malcolm Brown, Darrell Henderson Receivers : Brandin Cooks, Robert Woods, Cooper Kupp, Josh Reynolds, Mike Thomas, Nsimba Webster, JoJo Natson Tight ends : Tyler Higbee, Gerald Everett, Johnny Mundt Offensive linemen : Andrew Whitworth, Joe Noteboom, Brian Allen, Austin Blythe, Rob Havenstein, David Edwards, Bobby Evans, Jamil Demby Defensive linemen : Aaron Donald, Michael Brockers, Sebastian Joseph-Day, Morgan Fox, Tanzel Smart, Greg Gaines Linebackers : Cory Littleton, Bryce Hager, Clay Matthews, Dante Fowler, Samson Ebukam, Troy Reeder, Travin Howard, Natrez Patrick, Ogbonnia Okoronkwo, Justin Lawler Cornerbacks : Aqib Talib, Marcus Peters, Nickell Robey-Coleman, Troy Hill, David Long, Darious Williams Safeties : Eric Weddle, John Johnson, Taylor Rapp, Marqui Christian, Nick Scott Specialists : Greg Zuerlein, Johnny Hekker, Jake McQuaide Reserve/injured: LB Micah Kiser Suspended: OL Aaron Neary Etc. If quarterback John Wolford, waived on Saturday, clears waivers, the Rams are expected to sign him to the practice squad.. Last year, as contract negotiations with defensive tackle Aaron Donald’s representatives got closer to a conclusion, Snead said the sides were “in the same ZIP Code, area code, ballpark.” Asked if it was the same for negotiations with quarterback Jared Goff’s representatives, Snead joked, “We are in the same state.. I do know this, Jared wants to be a Ram for a long time, we want him to be a Ram for a long time and we will continuously try to work to make that happen.”… Other players released Saturday: receivers KhaDarel Hodge and Alex Bachman, offensive linemen Chandler Brewer and Jeremiah Kolone, defensive linemen Marquise Copeland and Landis Durham, linebacker Josh Carraway and defensive backs Kevin Peterson, Dominique Hatfield, Dont’e Deayon and Steven Parker.
