ALL-SLOW TEAM

Four Rams were named to Sports Illustrated's 'All-Slow Team' — a roster built of players who posted a 40-yard-dash time that was .05 seconds slower than the position average at their respective combine. Right tackle Rob Havenstein is the Rams offensive representation on the "slow" squad. He is joined by cornerback Marcus Peters, safety John Johnson, and defensive tackle Michael Brockers on defense.

Despite their 40 times, each has become a successful pro.

BIGGEST RISK

Bleacher Report's Kristopher Knox compiled a list of the biggest risks each team is taking in 2019, and for the Rams he points to the trenches.

Knox says the Rams might be approaching the 2019 campaign with too little experience on the offensive line. He also raises concerns about replacing defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh.

Here's what Knox had to say about replacing left guard Rodger Saffold and center John Sullivan:

"Saffold is one of the league's most underrated offensive linemen; he was named a second-team All-Pro in 2017. He opened holes in the running game and helped keep Jared Goff clean in the pocket. Center John Sullivan is also gone, which means Los Angeles will rely on two new starters on the offensive line."
